Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:LIQUID CAN CAUSE FREEZE BURNS SIMILAR
TO FROSTBITE IF CONTACT WITH SKIN OCCURS. LARGE CONCENTRATION OF
VAPOR IN ATMOSPHERE CAN CAUSE ASPHYXIATION DUE TO OXYGEN
DIISPLACEMENT. INHALATION OF SMALLER QUA NTITIES OF VAPOR CAN CAUSE
RESPIRATORY IRRITATION, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA OR DROWSINESS.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:PRODUCT IS NOT LISTED AS A CARCINOGEN OR
POTENTIAL CARCINOGEN BY NTP, IARC, OR OSHA.
Effects of Overexposure:LIQUID CAN CAUSE FREEZE BURNS SIMILAR TO
FROSTBITE IF CONTACT WITH SKIN OCCURS. LARGE CONCENTRATION OF VAPOR
IN ATMOSPHERE CAN CAUSE ASPHYXIATION DUE TO OXYGEN DIISPLACEMENT.
INHALATION OF SMALLER QUA NTITIES OF VAPOR CAN CAUSE RESPIRATORY
IRRITATION, DIZZINESS, NAUSEA OR DROWSINESS.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:NO DATA PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER.

First Aid:EYE CONTACT: FLUSH WITH WATER. OBTAIN MEDICAL ASSISTANCE IF
CONTACT WITH LIQUID HAS OCCURRED. SKIN CONTACT: IF FREEZE BURN
OCCURS REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHES,SHOES AND JEWELRY. IMMERSE
BURNED AREA IN WARM(NOT HOT)WATER. KEEP IMMERSED. CALL FOR MEDICAL
ASSISTANCE. INHALATION: REMOVE VICTIM FROM FURTHER EXPOSURE AND
INTO FRESH AIR. PROVIDE OXYGEN IF BREATHING IS LABORED. IF VICTIM
IS UNCONSCIOUS, SE EK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. IF BREATHING HAS
STOPPED, GIVE ARTIFICAL RESPIRATION. INGESTION: NOT EXPECTED TO
OCCUR IN NORMAL USE.

Extinguishing Media:DRY CHEMICAL, FOAM OR CO2, FOR SMALL FIRES. STOP
FLOW OF GAS FIRST.
Fire Fighting Procedures:EVACUATE AREA. NOTIFY FIRE DEPARTMENT. ALLOW
ONLY PROPERLY PROTECTED PERSONNEL IN AREA. SHUT OFF SOURCE OF GAS,

WATER STREAM CAN BE USED TO COOL EXPOSED EQUIPMENT AND VAPOR
SPACES OF CONTAINERS. APPROACH A FLAME ENVELOPED CONTAINER FROM THE
SIDE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:PRODUCTS OF COMBUSTION MAY YIELD CARBON
MONXIDE. UNCONTROLLED VAPORS SPREAD RAPIDLY, ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR
AND ARE EXTEREMELY FLAMMABLE.

Spill Release Procedures:PRODUCT IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. IF THERE IS A
LEAK BUT NO FIRE, DO NOT IGNITE THE GAS. ELIMINATE ALL IGNIITION
SOURCES. EVACUATE THE AREA. IF POSSIBLE, REMOVE LEAKING CONTAINER
TO SAFE AREA. STOP FLOW OF GAS OR ALLOW VAPOR TO DISPERSE IN A
SAFE AREA. USE WATER SPRAY TO HELP DILUTE VAPOR CONCENTRATION IN
THE AIR.
Neutralizing Agent:NO DATA PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER

Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE IN AN AUTHORIZED LOCATION
(OUTSIDE, DETACHED STORAGE IS PREFERRED) WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT AND IGNITION SOURCES. INSPECT CYLINDERS
FREQUENTLY FOR LEAKS, DENTS, GOUGES AND COROSTION WITH EMPHASIS ON
BOTTOM OF CYLINDER. STORE CYLINDERS IN UPRIGHT POSITION.
Other Precautions:DO NOT DROP OR OR ABUSE CYLINDERS KEEP CONTAINER
VALVE CLOSED AND PLUGGED WHEN NOT IN USE. INSTALL PROTECTIVE CAPS
WHEN CYLINDERS ARE NOT CONNECTED FOR USE.

Respiratory Protection:USE A NIOSH-APPROVED RESPIRATOR IF AREA IS
THOUGHT TO CONTAIN UNKNOWN CONCENTRATION OF GAS.
Ventilation:USE ADEQUATE VENTILATION TO MAINTAIN EXPOSURES BELOW
RECOMMENDED LIMITS.
Protective Gloves:PROPANE RESISTANT GLOVES ARE RECOMMENDED.
