The Wood Math Model Table

• OSHA used the following standard conditions:

• If the conditions in your case are significantly different from these, in particular relative humidities greater than 65%, you will need to make the appropriate corrections to the time given by the table. Another section of this advisor provides a discussion of these factors.

How to use this Table

Look down the left column to find the chemical and across the row to the column with the identified concentration, and there you will find the service life time in minutes.

Breakthrough Times (min) Indicates that the service life for this contaminant is limited to a single workshift by the OSHA Standard.
