<p class="MsoNormal">Last week one of the staff was wiping off some evaporator parts that were covered with Titanium metal. He was using texwipes soaked with IPA. He tossed the texwipes in the trash then accidentally dropped some wipes saturated with IPA on
top of them and a fire started. It self extinguished after 1 minute but it melted the bottom of a plastic trash can.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Have any of you had that happen or something similar? Needless to say this is very alarming and I need to understand what could have caused this and develop a corrective action plan.<o:p></o:p></p>
