- This information will appear in sample dashboard and also in manage sample grid
Exposure monitor time functionality - PMP-39219
The enhanced application has been enabled with the following changes in functionality.
- New fields added “Total Employee Exposure time-hours & minutes” and “Calculated total employee exposure time “in Sample activity replacing the shift length field.
- Field 1 : Total Employee Exposure time hour (drop down) : captures the actual exposure time in hour .Field range 0-23,incremented by 1 hour
- Field 2 : Total Employee Exposure time minutes(drop down) : captures the actual exposure time in minutes .Field range 0-59,incremented by 1 minutes
- Field 3: Calculated Total Employee Exposure time (auto generated grey field): calculates the total exposure hour and minutes into total minutes. max value -1440 mints
- This will be applicable to the following equipment
- Air Monitoring Pump
- Passive Dosimeter
- Direct Monitoring Gas & Vapor
- Direct Monitoring Tube
- Configuration Setting –Private
1.Is total employee exposure time applicable – yes /No .Product - No
2. Is sample result calculation by TWA and STEL applicable - yes /No .Product - No
- Existing data –No Impact
- Product – Product level – No ,Chevron - Yes
- Impacts – IH Query Report(SSRS),IH Summary Report (Crystal),Employee Notification Report(Crystal)
Changes in Calculation - Shift length replaced by Calculated Totasl Employee Exposure Time
Scenario -1: Was there potential exposure beyond the sample portion of the shift= "No”, Air Monitoring Volume
Employee Sample Time: 435 Minutes (7 Hours & 15 minutes),
Employee Exposure Time: 600 Minutes (10 Hours)
Flow rate = 2.5 L/Min
Volume = Flow rate * Exposed Time
= 2.5 *600 =1500 L
Scenario -2: Was there potential exposure beyond the sample portion of the shift= "No", Duration type - TWA: Impact on Result Calculation
For TWA Samples, we are going to FIX the denominator of the Sample Result to 480 Minutes (which would represent an 8 HOUR TWA).
Employee Calculated Time: 435 Minutes (7 Hours & 15 minutes),
Employee Exposure Time: 600 Minutes (10 Hours)
Lab Concentration Result: 500 MG/M3
Calculation will be as follows:
[Exposure Time (600 Minutes) / 8 HOUR TWA (480 Minutes] * 500 MG/M3 (Lab Concentration).
600 / 480 * 500 = 625 MG/M3
Changes to the formula:
- The numerator of the formula will pull from the Total Employee Exposure Time Field.
- The denominator for the Formula for a TWA Sample will be fixed to 480 Minutes.
Scenario -3: Was there potential exposure beyond the sample portion of the shift = "No", Duration type - STEL: Impact on Result Calculation
For STEL Samples, we are going to FIX the denominator of the Sample Result to 15 Minutes (which would represent a 15 mint STEL).
Employee Calculated Time: 435 Minutes (7 Hours & 15 minutes),
Employee Exposure Time: 600 Minutes (10 Hours)
Lab Concentration Result: 500 MG/M3
Calculation will be as follows:
[Exposure Time (600 Minutes) /STEL (15 Minutes] * 500 MG/M3 (Lab Concentration).
600 / 15* 500 = 20000 MG/M3
Changes to the formula:
- The numerator of the formula will pull from the Total Employee Exposure Time Field.
- The denominator for the Formula for a STEL Sample will be fixed to 15 Minutes.
Scenario-4: Copy Sample
On copying a Sample, the following fields will show the default values as mentioned
Total Exposure monitor time (hour): will show value as 0
Total Exposure monitor time (minute): will show value as 0
Calculated Total Exposure monitor time: will show value as 0
If user tries to save if value=0, then system will show alert message on save
Smoke Test Drop down in Face Velocity Measurement - PMP-39618
In the enhanced application, a New field “Smoke test results” has been added in the Face velocity measurement of the Chemical Sample.
- Field type is a drop down with values : Passed ,Failed ,Not Applicable
- Smoke test is not performed for Physical and Gravity Samples, hence this will be only a part of chemical sample.
- It will not have any impact on result calculation
- It would appear in dashboard and in IH Query Report
Modification to employee notification letter - PMP-40357
In the enhanced application, the following changes pertinent to Employee notification letter for both Chemical and Noise have been incorporated.
- Table Headings will be bold
