G94, Carpet Cleaner (XP3-109B): G9416

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Page: 3 of 11

Inhalation

Remove person to fresh air. If you feel unwell, get medical attention.

Skin contact

Immediately wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. If signs/symptoms develop,
get medical attention.

Eye contact

Immediately flush with large amounts of water. Remove contact lenses if easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical
attention.

If swallowed

Rinse mouth. If you feel unwell, get medical attention.

4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed

See Section 11.1 Information on toxicological effects

4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment required

Not applicable

SECTION 5: Fire-fighting measures

5.1. Extinguishing media

Material will not burn. Use a fire fighting agent suitable for the surrounding fire.

5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture

None inherent in this product.

Hazardous Decomposition or By-Products

Substance Condition

Carbon monoxide. During combustion.
Carbon dioxide. During combustion.
Irritant vapours or gases. During combustion.

5.3. Advice for fire-fighters

No unusual fire or explosion hazards are anticipated.

SECTION 6: Accidental release measures

6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures

Ventilate the area with fresh air. For large spill, or spills in confined spaces, provide mechanical ventilation to disperse or
exhaust vapours, in accordance with good industrial hygiene practice. Warning: A motor could be an ignition source and
could cause flammable gases or vapours in the spill area to burn or explode. Refer to other sections of this SDS for
information regarding physical and health hazards, respiratory protection, ventilation, and personal protective equipment.

6.2. Environmental precautions

Avoid release to the environment.

6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up

Contain spill. For large spills, if necessary, get assistance from professional spill clean up team. For small spills, carefully
neutralise spill by adding appropriate dilute acid such as vinegar. Work slowly to avoid boiling or spattering. Continue to add
neutralising agent until reaction stops. Let cool before collecting. Working from around the edges of the spill inward, cover
with bentonite, vermiculite, or commercially available inorganic absorbent material. Mix in sufficient absorbent until it
appears dry. Remember, adding an absorbent material does not remove a physical, health, or environmental hazard. Collect

G94, Carpet Cleaner (XP3-109B): G9416

__________________________________________________________________________________________

as much of the spilled material as possible. Place in a metal container approved for use in transportation by appropriate
authorities. The container must be lined with polyethylene plastic or contain a plastic drum liner made of polyethylene. Clean
up residue with water. Cover, but do not seal for 48 hours. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible.

6.4. Reference to other sections

Refer to Section 8 and Section 13 for more information

SECTION 7: Handling and storage

7.1. Precautions for safe handling

Keep out of reach of children. Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on
clothing. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wash thoroughly after handling. Avoid contact with oxidising
agents (eg. chlorine, chromic acid etc.) Keep away from reactive metals (eg. Aluminum, zinc etc.) to avoid the formation of
hydrogen gas that could create an explosion hazard.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage including any incompatibilities

Protect from sunlight. Store away from heat. Store away from acids. Store away from oxidising agents. Store away from
areas where product may come into contact with food or pharmaceuticals.

7.3. Specific end use(s)

See information in Section 7.1 and 7.2 for handling and storage recommendations. See Section 8 for exposure controls and
personal protection recommendations.

SECTION 8: Exposure controls/personal protection

8.1 Control parameters

Occupational exposure limits

No occupational exposure limit values exist for any of the components listed in Section 3 of this Safety Data Sheet.

8.2. Exposure controls

8.2.1. Engineering controls

Use general dilution ventilation and/or local exhaust ventilation to control airborne exposures to below relevant Exposure
Limits and/or control dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray. If ventilation is not adequate, use respiratory protection equipment.

8.2.2. Personal protective equipment (PPE)

Eye/face protection

Wear eye/face protection. Select and use eye/face protection to prevent contact based on the results of an exposure
assessment. The following eye/face protection(s) are recommended:
Indirect vented goggles.

Skin/hand protection

Select and use gloves and/or protective clothing approved to relevant local standards to prevent skin contact based on the
results of an exposure assessment. Selection should be based on use factors such as exposure levels, concentration of the
substance or mixture, frequency and duration, physical challenges such as temperature extremes, and other use conditions.
Consult with your glove and/or protective clothing manufacturer for selection of appropriate compatible gloves/protective
clothing. Wear protective gloves.
Gloves made from the following material(s) are recommended: Neoprene.
Nitrile rubber.

Respiratory protection

Wear respiratory protection if ventilation is inadequate to prevent overexposure. An exposure assessment may be needed to
decide if a respirator is required. If a respirator is needed, use respirators as part of a full respiratory protection program.
Based on the results of the exposure assessment, select from the following respirator type(s) to reduce inhalation exposure:
Half facepiece or full facepiece air-purifying respirator suitable for particulates

For questions about suitability for a specific application, consult with your respirator manufacturer.
