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atmospheremusthaveaminimumof18%freeoxygen.
Exposurecontrols
 Ensureadequateventilation,especiallyinconfinedareas.
 Eyeprotection‐wearsafetyglassescomplyingwithEN166orANSIZ87.1
 Handprotection‐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–Self‐containedbreathingapparatus
isrequiredifalargereleaseisexperienced.
 Respiratoryprotection–Forrescueuseself‐containedbreathingapparatus.Themixtureisheavierthanairandcancause
suffocationbyreducingtheoxygenconcentrationavailableforbreathing.ApparatusmustcomplywithEN137. 
