Gas, H280 0.001 - 1.39% RTECS: TX 2275000 ‘ Description of first aid measures - General information: symptoms of poisoning may occur after exposure to dust, fumes or particulates; seek medical attention if feeling unwell. - After inhalation: Supply fresh air. If required, provide artificial respiration. Consult doctor if symptoms persist. In case of unconsciousness place patient stably in the side position for transportation. After skin contact: Generally, the product does not irritate the skin. ‘ After eye contact: Not anticipated under normal use. ‘ Information for doctor - Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: No further relevant information available. - Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed: No further relevant information available. - Extinguishing media ‘ Suitable extinguishing agents: Use fire fighting measures that suit the environment. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. ‘ For safety reasons unsuitable extinguishing agents: No further relevant information is available. ‘ Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture: Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. If incinerated, product will releaset the following toxic fumes: Oxides of Carbon and Nitrogen (NOx). ‘ Advice for firefighters This gas mixture is not flammable; however, containers, when involved in fire, may rupture or burst in the heat of the fire. - Special protective equipment for firefighters: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand (NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear to prevent contact with skin and eyes. - Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: In aconfined area, NIOSH approved respiratory protection may be required. - Environmental precautions: Inform authorities in case of gas release. - Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Dispose of contaminated material as waste according to section 13. Ensure adequate ventilation. Dispose of the collected material according to regulations. - Reference to other sections: See Section 7 for information on safe handling. See Section 8 for information on personal protection equipment. See Section 13 for disposal information. - Protective Action Criteria for Chemicals - PAC-1: 7727-37-9 Nitrogen 7.96E+05 ppm 74-98-6 Propane 5500* ppm - PAC-2: 7727-37-9 Nitrogen 8.32E+05 ppm 74-98-6 Propane 17000** ppm - PAC-3: 7727-37-9 Nitrogen 8.69E+05 ppm 74-98-6 Propane 33000*** ppm ‘ Handling - Precautions for safe handling: Ensure good ventilation/exhaustion at the workplace. Open and handle receptacle with care. Be aware of any signs of dizziness or fatigue; exposures to fatal concentrations of this gas mixture could occur without any significant warning symptoms due to the potential for oxygen deficiency (simple asphyxiation). Do not attempt to adjust, repair or in any other way modify the cylinders containing this gas mixture. If there is a malfunction or another type of operational problem, contact nearest distributor immediately. - Information about protection against explosions and fires: Pressurized container: protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50°C, i.e. electric lights. Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Keep protective respiratory device available. Do not spray on a naked flame or any incandescent material. - Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Store away from strong oxidizing agents, phosphorous, organic materials and powdered metals.

Storage

- Requirements to be met by storerooms and receptacles: Store in a cool location. Cylinders should be firmly secured to prevent falling or being Knocked over. Cylinders must be protected from the environment, and preferably kept at room temperature. Cylinders should be stored in dry, well-ventilated areas, away from sources of heat, ignition, and direct sunlight. Protect cylinders against physical damage. Full and empty cylinders should be segregated. Use a "first-on, first-out" inventory system to prevent full containers from being stored for long periods of time. - Information about storage in one common storage facility: Not required. - Further information about storage conditions: Store in cool, dry conditions in well sealed receptacles. - Specific end use(s): No further relevant information available. - Additional information about design of technical systems: No further data; see section 7. - Control parameters: - Components with occupational exposure limits: The following constituents are the only constituents of the product which have a PEL, TLV or other recommended exposure limit. At this time, the remaining constituents have no known exposure limits. 7727-37-9 Nitrogen TLV withdrawn TLV, see App. F; simple asphyxiant 74-98-6 Propane PEL Long-term value: 1800 mg/m?, 1000 ppm REL Long-term value: 1800 mg/m?, 1000 ppm TLV refer to Appendix F
