Fire-fighting measures <br /> Extinguishing media <br /> Suitable extinguishing Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire. <br /> media <br /> Unsuitable extinguishing None known. <br /> media <br /> Specific hazards arising Contains gas under pressure. Extremely flammable gas. In a fire or if heated, a <br /> from the chemical pressure increase will occur and the container may burst, with the risk of a subsequent <br /> explosion. The vapor/gas is heavier than air and will spread along the ground. Gas <br /> may accumulate in low or confined areas or travel a considerable distance to a source <br /> of ignition and flash back, causing fire or explosion. <br /> Hazardous thermal Decomposition products may include the following materials: <br /> decomposition products carbon dioxide <br /> carbon monoxide <br /> Special protective actions Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if <br /> for fire-fighters there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable <br /> training. Contact supplier immediately for specialist advice. Move containers from fire <br /> area if this can be done without risk. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers <br /> cool. If involved in fire, shut off flow immediately if it can be done without risk. If this is <br /> impossible, withdraw from area and allow fire to burn. Fight fire from protected location <br /> or maximum possible distance. Eliminate all ignition sources if safe to do so. <br /> Special protective Fire-fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing <br /> equipment for fire-fighters apparatus (SCBA)with a full face-piece operated in positive pressure mode. For <br /> incidents involving large quantities, thermally insulated undergarments and thick textile <br /> or leather gloves should be worn. <br /> Section 6. Accidental release measures <br /> Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures <br /> For non-emergency Accidental releases pose a serious fire or explosion hazard. No action shall be taken <br /> personnel involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Evacuate surrounding areas. <br /> Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Do not touch or walk <br /> through spilled material. Shut off all ignition sources. No flares, smoking or flames in <br /> hazard area. Avoid breathing gas. Provide adequate ventilation. Wear appropriate <br /> respirator when ventilation is inadequate. Put on appropriate personal protective <br /> equipment. <br /> Date of issue/Date of revision :1111512020 Date of previous issue :101512020 Version :1.02 3112 <br />
