Spill Kit – Mercury 10L Pail – SCKMERC3

This mercury spill kit is designed for hospitals, laboratories, schools, workshops, warehouses, factories, chemical plants – wherever a small amount of mercury is stored, handled and potentially spilled.

Mercury facts:

Elemental mercury is a heavy silvery-white metal which is liquid at normal temperatures. Mercury will vaporise at normal room temperature. This in turn creates a risk of mercury exposure through inhalation. The risk increases as the temperature increases. This is one of the key reasons it’s important to clean up this type of spill immediately.

This spill kit contains MercAmal mercury amalgamation powder that when mixed with water, converts elemental (metallic) mercury into a stable, solid zinc amalgam and prevents the release of hazardous  vapours.

• Instructions on how to clean up a mercury spill are included.
• This spill kit also contains safety gear such as gloves, goggles and boot covers to keep personnel safe.
• Spill kit includes label and mercury spill kit operating instructions.
• This spill kit with MercAmal is supplied in a 10 litre white pail with snap-on lid.

It is important to check a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before cleaning up a spill to understand the specific hazards, recommended protective measures, and appropriate cleanup procedures for the substance involved, ensuring safety and compliance with regulation.
