SECTION7:Handlingandstorage
Handling
 Substanceisheavierthanairandmayspreadalongfloors.
 Compressedgascylindersareheavyandcontainconsiderablestoredenergy.Usesuitableequipmentandhandlewith
appropriatecaution.Contactsupplierifindoubt.
Storage
Donotdrag,slideorrollcontainers.Neverattempttoliftcylinderbyitscap.Useacheckvalveinthedischargelineto
preventhazardousbackflowintothecontainer.
Storagetemperature
Keepcontainersinadry,cool,andwell‐ventilatedplaceatatemperatureofbetween‐20°Cand50°C.
SECTION8:Exposurecontrols/personalprotection
Exposurelimits
Noexposurelimitspecified,buttheatmospheremusthaveaminimumof18%freeoxygen.
Exposurecontrols
 Ventilation‐Ensureadequateventilation,especiallyinconfinedareas.
 Eyeprotection‐WearsafetyglassescomplyingwithEN166orANSIZ87.1
 Handprotection–WearleatherglovesthatareresistanttolowtemperaturecomplyingwithEN374orUSOSHA
guidelines.Thechoiceoftheglovesalsodependsonotherqualityfeaturesotherthanmaterialandisdifferentfromone
manufacturertoanother.Considerationmustbegiventospecificlocalconditions,suchas thedangerofcuts,abrasion,
andcontacttimewiththesubstance.
 Skinandbodyprotection– Wearsuitableprotectiveequipment.
 Protectivemeasures–Wearaself‐containedbreathingapparatusifalargereleaseisexperienced(required!).
 Respiratoryprotection–Useaself‐containedbreathingapparatusforrescue.Thegascancausesuffocationbyreducing
theoxygenconcentrationavailableforbreathing.ApparatusmustcomplywithEN137.
