Questions and Answers

What is the formula to calculate the Time Weighted Average (TWA) exposure to chemicals?

TWA = (C₁ + C₂ + ... + C) / (T₁ + T₂ + ... + T)

TWA = (C₁ / T₁) + (C₂ / T₂) + ... + (C / T)

TWA = C / T

TWA = (C₁ × T₁ + C₂ × T₂ + ... + C × T) / (T₁ + T₂ + ... + T) (correct)

What does the abbreviation LFL stand for in the context of chemical safety?

Lower Flammable Level

Lower Flammable Limit (correct)

Lower Frequency Level

Lower Flow Limit
