SECTION 2: Hazards identification
WARNING! Emergency Overview Simple asphyxiant Contents under pressure Keep at temperatures below 52°C / 125°F Appearance Colorless Physical State Compressed gas. Odor Odorless
Principle Routes of Exposure
Inhalation. ( Acute Toxicity Inhalation Simple asphyxiant. May cause suffocation by displacing the oxygen in the air. Exposure to oxygen-deficient atmosphere (<19.5%) may cause dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, excess salivation, diminished mental alertness, loss of consciousness and death. Exposure to atmospheres containing 8-10% or less oxygen will bring about unconsciousness without warning and so quickly that the individuals cannot help or protect themselves. Lack of sufficient oxygen may cause serious injury or death. Depending on concentration and duration of exposure to carbon dioxide may cause increased respirations, headache, mild narcotic effects, Increased blood pressure and pulse, and asphyxiation. Symptoms of overexposure become more apparent when atmospheric oxygen is decreased to 15-17%. Eyes None known. Skin None known. Skin Absorption Hazard No known hazard in contact with skin. Ingestion None known.
Potential chronic health
Chronic harmful effects are not known from repeated inhalation of concentrations below PEL/TLV
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
Respiratory disorders. Environmentai Hazard See Section 12 for additional Ecological Information.
