OSHA Regulatory Status: This material is classified as hazardous under OSHA regulations.

Emergency Overview:

Colorless, odorless, non-flammable gas mixture. The main health hazards associated with releases of this gas are related to the high
pressure. Simple hydrocarbons can cause irritation and central nervous system depression at high concentrations. Contents under
pressure. Use and store below 125 OF (520 C).

­Hazard ratings were assigned in accordance with Compressed Gas Association (CGA) guidelines as published in CGA Pamphlet P­19-2004, CGA Recommended Hazard Ratings for Compressed Gases, 2nd Edition.

Eyes:

None required for gas. If frostbite is suspected, flush eyes with cool water for 15 minutes and obtain immediate medical attention.

Skin:

None required for gas. For frostbite, immerse skin in lukewarm water. DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Obtain medical attention.

Ingestion:

None required.

Inhalation:

PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION IS MANDATORY IN ALL CASES OF OVEREXPOSURE. RESCUE PERSONNEL
SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. Victims should be assisted to an
uncontaminated area and inhale fresh air.
