Do not discharge at pressures above 15 psig (103 kPa) EN (English US) SDS ID: P-4559 1/10 CGA-PG06 - Close valve after each use and when empty CGA-PG11 - Never put cylinders into unventilated areas of passenger vehicles CGA-PG02 - 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 acetone (CAS # 67-64-1; Flam. Liq. 2, Eye Irrit. 2, STOT SE 3) in the gas container. Vapor of the solvent is carried away as impurity when the acetylene is extracted from the gas container. The concentration of the solvent vapor in the gas is lower than the concentration limits to change the classification of the acetylene.
