What Does TLV Stand For?
TLV stands for Threshold Limit Value
TLV, or Threshold Limit Value, refers to the maximum concentration of a substance to which a worker can be exposed over a specified period without experiencing adverse health effects. Developed by the American Conference of Governmental and Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), TLVs serve as guidelines to promote workplace safety and health by aiding in the assessment of exposure risks in occupational environments. They are intended for use by health professionals and safety engineers to establish exposure limits and implement control measures.
