Hazard statements
EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE GAS MAY REACT EXPLOSIVELY EVEN IN THE ABSENCE OF AIR AT ELEVATED PRESSURE AND/OR TEMPERATURE CONTAINS GAS UNDER PRESSURE; MAY EXPLODE IF HEATED MAY FORM EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES WITH AIR. MAY DISPLACE OXYGEN AND CAUSE RAPID SUFFOCATION.
Precautionary statements
Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. LEAKING GAS FIRE: Do not extinguish, unless leak can be stopped safely. In case of leakage, eliminate all ignition sources Use and store only outdoors or in a well-ventilated place. Protect from sunlight. Store in a well-ventilated place. Dispose of contents/container in accordance with container Supplier/owner instructions Use a back flow preventive device in the piping. Use only with equipment rated for cylinder pressure. Never put cylinders into unventilated areas of passenger vehicles. Fusible plugs in the top, bottom, or valve melt at 98°C to 107°C (208°F to 224°F). Do not discharge at pressures above 15 psig (103 kPa). Do not open valve until connected to equipment prepared for use. Close valve after each use and when empty. Protect from sunlight when ambient temperature exceeds 52°C (125°F).
Other hazards which do not result in classification
For safety reasons, the acetylene is dissolved in dimethylformamide (CAS no. 68-12-2; Repr. 1B, Acute Tox. 4, Eye Irrit. 2) in the gas container. Vapour of the solvent is carried away as impurity when the acetylene is extracted from the gas container. The concentration of the solvent vapour in the gas is lower than the concentration limits to change the classification of the acetylene.
