DANGER
Hazard statements CONTAINS GAS UNDER PRESSURE;
MAY EXPLODE IF HEATED
CAUSES SEVERE SKIN BURNS AND EYE DAMAGE
TOXIC IF INHALED
CORROSIVE TO THE RESPIRATORY TRACT
Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood
Avoid breathing gas
Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing.
Use and store only outdoors or in a well-ventilated place.
Wear protective gloves, protective clothing, eye protection, respiratory protection, and/or face
protection
Store locked up
Dispose of contents/container Dispose in a safe manner in accordance with local/national
regulations
Use a back flow preventive device in the piping.
Use only with equipment of compatible materials of construction and rated for cylinder pressure.
Do not open valve until connected to equipment prepared for use.
When returning cylinder, install leak tight valve outlet cap or plug.
Close valve after each use and when empty.
Protect from sunlight when ambient temperature exceeds 52C (125F).
First-aid measures after inhalation : Immediately remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration. If breathing is difficult, qualified personnel may give oxygen. Call a physician.
WARNING: To avoid possible chemical burns, the rescuer should avoid breathing any exhaled air
from the victim.
First-aid measures after skin contact : In case of contact, immediately flush affected areas with
plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
Call a physician.
Wash clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated shoes.
First-aid measures after eye contact : Immediately flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15
minutes. Hold the eyelids open and away from the eyeballs to ensure that all surfaces are flushed
thoroughly.
Contact an ophthalmologist immediately.
First-aid measures after ingestion : Ingestion is not considered a potential route of exposure.
Storage conditions :
1. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store and use with adequate ventilation. Store only where
temperature will not exceed 125F (52C).
2. Firmly secure containers upright to keep them from falling or being knocked over. Install valve
protection cap, if provided, firmly in place by hand. Store full and empty containers separately.
3. Use a first-in, first-out inventory system to prevent storing full containers for long periods.

OTHER PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING, STORAGE, AND USE:

1.When handling product under pressure, use piping and equipment adequately designed to
withstand the pressures to be encountered. Never work on a pressurized system.
2. Use a back flow preventive device in the piping.
3. Gases can cause rapid suffocation because of oxygen deficiency; store and use with adequate
ventilation.
4. If a leak occurs, close the container valve and blow down the system in a safe and
environmentally correct manner in compliance with all international, federal/national,
state/provincial, and local laws; then repair the leak.
5.Never place a container where it may become part of an electrical circuit.

Precautions for safe handling

1. Wear leather safety gloves and safety shoes when handling cylinders.
2. Protect cylinders from physical damage; do not drag, roll, slide or drop.
3. While moving cylinder, always keep in place removable valve cover. Never attempt to lift a
cylinder by its cap; the cap is intended solely to protect the valve.
4. When moving cylinders, even for short distances, use a cart (trolley, hand truck, etc.) designed to
transport cylinders.
5.Never insert an object (e.g., wrench, screwdriver, pry bar) into cap openings; doing so may
damage the valve and cause a leak.
6. Use an adjustable strap wrench to remove over-tight or rusted caps.
7. Slowly open the valve.
8. If the valve is hard to open, discontinue use and contact your supplier.
9. Close the container valve after each use; keep closed even when empty.
10. Never apply flame or localized heat directly to any part of the container.
11. High temperatures may damage the container and could cause the pressure relief device to fail
prematurely, venting the container contents
Appropriate engineering controls : Use a corrosion-resistant local exhaust ventilation system with
sufficient air flow velocity to maintain concentration below all applicable exposure limits in the
worker's breathing zone. A canopy-type, forced-draft fume hood is preferred.
Hand protection : Neoprene rubber (HNBR).
Eye protection : Provide readily accessible eye wash stations and safety showers. Wear safety
glasses when handling cylinders; vapor-proof goggles and a face shield during cylinder changeout
or whenever contact with product is possible.
Skin and body protection : Wear metatarsal shoes and work gloves for cylinder handling, and
protective clothing where needed. Wear appropriate chemical gloves (e.g. neoprene, nitrile, etc.)
during cylinder changeout or wherever contact with product is possible.
Respiratory protection :
Use an air-supplied or air-purifying cartridge if the action level (5 PPM) is exceeded.
If cartridge type respirators are used (up to 50 PPM), the cartridge must be appropriate for the
chemical exposure (e.g., an organic vapor cartridge/acid gas catridge).
For emergencies or instances (>50 PPM) with unknown exposure levels, use a self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA ) with full face piece, hood.

Spill /leakage Procedures:

1. Persons not wearing protecive equipments and clothing should be restricted from areas of leaks
untill arreststing and cleanup has been completed.
2. ventilate area of leak to disperse the gas.
3. Stop flow of gas. If source of leak is a cylinder and leak cannot be stopped inplace, remove the
leakage cylinder to a safe place in the open air, and repair the leak or allow the cylinder to empty.
The above operations should be done with proper protection only as listed below
