Skin l In case of contact, immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Take off contaminated clothing. If irritation develops and persists, get medical attention. Eye l IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. Ingestion l Ingestion is not considered a potential route of exposure. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed l Refer to Section 11 - Toxicological Information. 4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Notes to Physician l Treat symptoms and eliminate over-exposure. Hyperbaric oxygen is the most efficient antidote to Carbon Monoxide poisoning, the optimum range being 2-2.5 atm. A special mask, or, preferably, a compression chamber to utilize oxygen at these pressures is required. Avoid administering stimulant drugs. Be observant for initial signs of pulmonary edema in the event of severe inhalation over-exposures. 4.4 Other information l RESCUERS SHOULD NOT ATTEMPT TO RETRIEVE VICTIMS OF EXPOSURE TO THIS GAS MIXTURE WITHOUT ADEQUATE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. At a minimum, Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus must be worn. Victim(s) who experience any adverse effect after over-exposure to this gas mixture must be taken for medical attention. Rescuers should be taken for medical attention if necessary. Take a copy of the label and the MSDS to physician or other health professional with victim(s). Section 5 - Firefighting Measures 5.1 Extinguishing media Suitable Extinguishing Media l Non-flammable gas mixture. Use extinguishing media appropriate for surrounding fire. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media l No data available 5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards l This gas mixture contains toxic gases, Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Monoxide, and presents a health hazard to firefighters. This gas mixture is not flammable; however, containers, when involved in fire, may rupture or burst in the heat of the fire. Hazardous Combustion Products l No data available 5.3 Advice for firefighters l Structural firefighters' protective clothing will only provide limited protection. Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Personal Precautions l Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. See section 8 for more information. Emergency Procedures l Due to the small size and content of the cylinder, an accidental release of this gas mixture presents significantly less risk of over-exposure to Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Monoxide, the toxic components of this gas mixture, and other safety hazards related to the remaining components of this gas mixture, than a similar release from a larger cylinder. In the event of a release in which the atmosphere is unknown, and in which other chemicals are potentially involved, evacuate immediate area. Such releases should be responded to by trained personnel using pre-planned procedures. Proper protective equipment should be used. In case of a leak, clear the affected area, protect people, and respond with trained personnel. 0.0015 – 23.5% Oxygen; 0.0005% – 2.5% Methane; 0.0005 – 1.0% Carbon Monoxide; 0.001 – 0.025% Hydrogen Sulfide; Nitrogen Gas balance0.0015 – 23.5% Oxygen; 0.0005% – 2.5% Methane; 0.0005 – 1.0% Carbon Monoxide; 0.001 – 0.025% Hydrogen Sulfide; Nitrogen Gas balance0.0015 – 23.5% Oxygen; 0.0005% – 2.5% Methane; 0.0005 – 1.0% Carbon Monoxide; 0.001 – 0.025% Hydrogen Sulfide; Nitrogen Gas balance0.0015 – 23.5% Oxygen; 0.0005% – 2.5% Methane; 0.0005 – 1.0% Carbon Monoxide; 0.001 – 0.025% Hydrogen Sulfide; Nitrogen Gas balance Preparation Date: 10/August/2012Preparation Date: 10/August/2012Preparation Date: 10/August/2012Preparation Date: 10/August/2012 Revision Date: 16/December/2013Revision Date: 16/December/2013Revision Date: 16/December/2013Revision Date: 16/December/2013 Format: EU CLP/REACH Language: English (US)Format: EU CLP/REACH Language: English (US)Format: EU CLP/REACH Language: English (US)Format: EU CLP/REACH Language: English (US) OSHA HCS 1994, WHMIS, UN GHS, EU CLP, EU DSD/OSHA HCS 1994, WHMIS, UN GHS, EU CLP, EU DSD/OSHA HCS 1994, WHMIS, UN GHS, EU CLP, EU DSD/OSHA HCS 1994, WHMIS, UN GHS, EU CLP, EU DSD/DPDDPDDPDDPDPage 5 of 18Page 5 of 18Page 5 of 18Page 5 of 18
