First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Remove to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration. Get medical attention immediately.

Symptoms: May cause suffocation by displacing the oxygen in the air. Exposure to oxygen-deficient atmosphere (<19.5%) may cause dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, excess salivation, diminished mental alertness, loss of consciousness and death. Exposure to atmospheres containing 8-10% or less oxygen will bring about unconsciousness without warning and so quickly that the individuals cannot help or protect themselves. Lack of sufficient oxygen may cause serious injury or death.

Skin contact

None under normal use. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Symptoms: None under normal use. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Eye contact

None under normal use. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Symptoms: None under normal use. Get medical attention if symptoms occur.

Ingestion

Not an expected route of exposure.

Symptoms: Not an expected route of exposure.

Immediate Medical Attention

Get medical attention immediately.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Provide general ventilation, local exhaust ventilation, process enclosure or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits and to maintain oxygen levels above 19.5%. Oxygen detectors should be used when asphyxiating gases may be released. Systems under pressure should be regularly checked for leakages.

Hands

Work gloves

Eyes

Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).

Respiratory

Use positive pressure airline respirator with escape cylinder or self contained breathing apparatus for oxygen-deficient atmospheres (<19.5%).

Skin/Body

safety shoes are recommended when handling cylinders.
