PERMEA-TEC Sensor for Nickel
Cat. No. 769-3008
Operating Instructions

The PERMEA-TEC Sensor colorimetric screening method determines the effectiveness of chemical-protective gloves and clothing under actual use conditions.
Easy-to-use PERMEA-TEC sensors are adhered to a worker’s skin at points of greatest contact and abrasion before gloving or covering, observed for color change at time intervals, and sent to an accredited laboratory for analysis if desired.

Instructions for Use

To determine a user-safe time period for the particular glove, double gloving is recommended.

  1. Affix PERMEA-TEC sensors to the thumb, middle finger, and palm on the outside of the glove currently being worn. Place the glove to be evaluated over the first glove.
  2. After one hour, remove the outside glove and the underlying PERMEA-TEC sensors.
  3. Lightly spray the PERMEA-TEC sensors with Cleaning/Developing Solution for Nickel Cat. No. 769-1068 or 769-1054.
  4. Evaluate the sensors for breakthrough. A positive indication of breakthrough results in a color change of white to pink.
  5. If no breakthrough is indicated, apply fresh PERMEA-TEC sensors and continue to wear the outside glove for another hour. Follow Steps 2 through 4 to determine if breakthrough has occurred.
  6. Repeat Steps 3 through 5 to determine a user-safe time period for gloves.
