COSHH Regulations oblige any organisation using Anaesthetic Agent to regularly check that waste gas levels are within specified limits when based on an 8 Hour Time Weighted Average.

Maximum legal Occupational Exposure Limits (OEL) for the most common agents are as follows...

* Halothane 10ppm
* Isoflurane 50ppm
* Sevoflurane 60ppm
* Nitrous Oxide 100ppm

The above limits are based on an eight hour Time Weight Average (TWA). The HSE recommend the routine testing interval is every 14 months.

Note: N2O available on request.
