People working with ammonia may become desensitized and not be able to detect ammonia at low concentrations. Also, exposure levels which are tolerated by the average person may cause respiratory damage to others. The concentrations below are from ammonia in air by volume.
Human Exposure Limits
People working with ammonia may become desensitized and not be able to detect ammonia at low concentrations. Also, exposure levels which are tolerated by the average person may cause respiratory damage to others. The concentrations below are from ammonia in air by volume.
1 to 5 parts per million (ppm)

Fortunately, ammonia has an odor threshold of about 20 ppm which is substantially below the IDLH so most people will seek relief well below that which would cause adverse health affects.
