17、 (This foreword is not part of the American National Standard/AIHA Z9.62008)A standard for ventilation of grinding, polishing, and buffing equipment was originally developed bythe Industrial Hygiene Codes Committee of the American Foundrymens Association (now knownas the American Foundrymens Society
18、, or AFS) and was approved by the Board of Directors ofthat organization on December 4, 1936. Realizing that grinding, polishing, and buffing equipment isused in many industries and wishing to make technical material used by the foundry industry morewidely available, the American Foundrymens Associa
19、tion submitted this standard to the AmericanStandards Association (now ANSI) for approval as an American National Standard. ASA referredthe standard to the Z9 Committee on Exhaust Systems, a canvas of interested parties was con-ducted by letter ballot, and the standard was issued as Z43.11941 on Aug
20、ust 14, 1941.The Dust Control Committee of the American Foundrymens Society revised and updated the stan-dard, submitted the revision to the American Standards Association, and it was reissued under theguidance of the Z9 committee as Z43.11966. ANSI withdrew the standard in 1988 when no fur-ther wor
21、k was done on it. The Z9 Committee, however, believed it was important to maintain thisconsensus information and chartered a Z9.6 subcommittee in 1992 to rewrite Z43.1 as ANSI Z9.6.This new standard provides updated information on ventilation for grinding, polishing, and buffingoperations that confo
22、rms to current accepted practices.New technology and research continues to change this field and it is hoped that future versions ofthe standard will reflect this growth in knowledge. Suggestions for improvement are welcome. Theyshould be sent to the American Industrial Hygiene Association, 2700 Pro
23、sperity Avenue, Suite 250,Fairfax, VA 22031.How to Use this StandardThe requirements of the standard beginning in Section 4 are presented in a two-column format.The left column presents the requirements of the standard; the right column provides clarificationand explanation of the requirements. Figu
24、res 115 are incorporated as part of the standard.Standard requirements should be considered minimum criteria and can be adapted to the needs ofthe User establishment. Demonstrably equal or better approaches are acceptable. When deviatingfrom the Standard, documentation should be provided. The Standa
25、rd is auditable by those trained in ventilation. An Audit Form is provided in theAppendix.iiiANSI/AIHA Z9.62008Copyright AIHA For personal use only.

The requirements and emissionand exposure control principles describedin this standa
35、rd represent the minimumcriteria intended 1) to protect the healthof personnel engaged in and working inthe vicinity of grinding, polishing, andbuffing operations; and 2) to control con-taminants generated by those operations.1.2 Application. The Standard applies toprocesses, equipment and operation
36、sthat use power-driven machinery togrind, polish, or buff a product withoutthe use of a liquid coolant. Where liquidcoolants are used, the cooling fluid maybe emitted as a mist, aerosol or vaporand additional provisions will be requiredby the user to control exposures, poolingof liquids, draining of
37、 ducts, use of misteliminators, and so forth, that are notcovered in the Standard.1.3 Where federal, state, or local regulationsor codes are more stringent, those regu-lations and codes shall have control.2 Referenced Standards andPublications2.1 General.
