Scan4Work - Toluene
Complete testing kit for measuring workplace air quality and occupational exposure to toluene (CAS 108-88-3), which is classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic, and toxic to reproduction. Exposure to toluene can cause occupational diseases.
Toluene is an aromatic hydrocarbon widely used in industry, but it is recognized as a carcinogen, mutagen, reproductive toxin, and neurotoxin (affecting the central nervous system).
Regular monitoring of occupational exposure to toluene is a regulatory requirement and essential for protecting workers’ health and preventing occupational diseases.
What is included in the Scan4Work - Toluene test kit?
- A Scan4Air VOC sampler
- Instructions for use
- A sample collection form to be completed and returned with your sample
- Laboratory analysis of the sample
- Analysis report sent by email to the address provided on the sample collection form
Shipping costs (both delivery and returns within mainland France) are included.
What are the main industrial uses of toluene?
Toluene is widely used in the chemical and petrochemical industries, particularly as:
- Solvent in paints, varnishes, inks, glues, and adhesives
- Found in fuels and industrial solvents
- Used in the manufacture of chemicals (benzene, phenol, TNT, etc.)
- Intermediate in the production of rubber, resins, dyes, and pharmaceuticals
What are the occupational exposure limits (OELs) that employers must comply with?
According to OSHA, the OEL for toluene is 50 ppm, equivalent to 192 mg/m³ (8 hours TLV-TWA, Threshold Limit Value − Time-Weighted Average) and OEL 15 minutes 100 ppm equivalent to 384 mg/m³.
Under current regulations in France, the 8-hour OEL for toluene is 76.8 mg/m³ and the short-term OEL (15 minutes) is 384 mg/m³.
The occupational exposure limits (OELs) for toluene are mandatory, meaning that workers’ exposure must not exceed the OEL.
How is your air sample collected and analyzed?
- Sampling: This is performed using a Scan4Air VOC sampler containing activated carbon, specifically designed for occupational exposure sampling.
- For workplace air quality measurements, it is placed in the work environment for a period of 8 hours
- For occupational exposure measurements, it is attached with the provided clip to the operator’s collar for 8 hours.
- Analysis: After extracting the activated carbon with a solvent, the extract is analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) for reliable and accurate detection.
- Turnaround time: Your analysis results are available within 15 business days.
- Report: Your analysis results are sent via email in the form of a detailed report in French.
Homogeneous Exposure Group (HEG)
The regulatory assessment of occupational exposure requires the simultaneous measurement of exposure for three workers (Homogeneous Exposure Group) and the measurement of ambient air at the workplace. The GHE version of this kit includes all the equipment needed to perform these four measurements.
This kit allows you to easily, quickly, and reliably measure workplace air quality or occupational exposure to ensure compliance with regulations and workplace safety.
