Powergas

Bring the injured person out into fresh air. Give artificial respiration if breathing has stopped. If breathing is difficult let trained personnel administer oxygen. Let the injured person rest in a warm place with fresh air and seek medical advice immediately.

Symptoms: High concentrations can displace the normal air and cause suffocation from lack of oxygen.

Remove contaminated clothes. Heat the exposed body part in lukewarm water if cold injury occurs. Do NOT use warm water. Frostbite should be treated by a doctor.

Symptoms: Contact with rapidly expanding gas may cause frostbite.

Remove contact lenses immediately if possible. Rinse the eye for several minutes with lukewarm water. If irritation persists call a doctor/ophthalmologist.

Symptoms: Frostbites.

If symptoms persist contact a doctor.

Symptoms: Frostbites.

Extinguish with powder, carbon dioxide or foam.

May not be extinguished with water dispersed under high pressure.

Gases detrimental to health (carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide) can be spread in case of fire. In case of fire, high pressure may build up causing the packaging to explode. The gas forms an explosive mixture with air. Flammable gas.

Protective measures should be taken regarding other material at the site of the fire. Containers in the proximity of fire should be moved and cooled down with water. If the gas cylinder cannot be removed, cool it with water as long as the fire persists and then at least 10 minutes.

Do not inhale the gas. Note, risk of ignition and explosion. Do not remove clothing in a room where spillage has occurred.

Notify rescue services for larger spillage.

Let the gas from the leaking gas cylinders evaporate outdoors.

Avoid spillage, inhalation and contact with eyes and skin. Only experienced and properly instructed persons must handle compressed gas. Use only correctly specified equipment suitable for this substance, its pressure and temperature. Take precautionary measures against static discharge. Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C. Check pipes and shut-off valves regularly for gas leakages. An evacuation plan should be available and evacuation routes must not be blocked.

Store at maximum 50 °C. Store in a dry place not above normal room temperature. Store in a well-ventilated space. Store tightly, in original packaging. Do not store in direct sunlight.

Do not eat, drink or smoke in premises where this product is handled.

Open fires, hot objects, spark formation, or other sources of ignition, are not allowed in the premises where this product is handled. Prevent build up of static electricity by utilising a semi-conducting floor and shoe soles and keep humidity above 50%.

The ventilation in the workplace must ensure an air quality that meets the requirements of the current working environment legislation. Local exhaust ventilation should be used to remove airborne contaminants at the source. Oxygen monitors should be used since suffocating gases may be released.

Gloves protecting against cold, labelled with the "cold hazard" pictogram, is recommended.

Eye protection should be worn if there is any danger of direct exposure or splashing.

Use appropriate respiratory protective equipment in case of insufficient ventilation. Breathing apparatus may be required.

Release of gas can cause strong cold. Gloves protecting against cold, labelled with the "cold hazard" pictogram, is recommended.

Work with the product should take place in such a way that the product does not get into drains, waterways, soil and air.

The product is stable at normal storage and handling conditions.

The product contains no substances which can lead to hazardous reactions at normal use.

Reacts strongly or explosively with certain oxidising agents.

Avoid heat, sparks and open flames. Protect from direct sunlight.

Avoid contact with oxidizers. Avoid contact with halogens.

None under normal conditions.

Product as well as packaging must be disposed of as hazardous waste.
