Other hazards which do not result in classification

HEALTH HAZARDS: Inhalation of high vapour concentrations can cause weakening of the Central Nervous System (CNS), leading to dizziness, drowsiness, headache and nausea. The available oxygen in the air can be depleted due to high gas concentrations. This may cause sudden loss of consciousness or death as a result of lack of oxygen. Exposure to rapidly expanding gasses can cause freeze burns to eyes and/or skin. SAFETY HAZARDS: Vapours are heavier than air. Vapours may travel across the ground and reach remote ignition sources, causing a flashback fire danger. Electrostatic charges may be generated during pumping. Electrostatic discharge may cause fire.
