2 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Inhalation: Carbon dioxide is a cerebral vasodilator. Inhaling large concentrations causes rapid circulatory
insufficiency leading to coma and death. Chronic, harmful effects are not known from repeated inhalation
of low concentrations. low concentrations of carbon dioxide cause increased respiration and headache.
As this product contains some oxygen (minimum of 10.5%), overexposure to carbon dioxide would
Skin Contact: Contact with rapidly expanding gas near the point of release may cause frostbite with redness, skin color
Eye Contact: Contact with rapidly expanding gas near the point of release may cause frostbite.
Ingestion: Ingestion is unlikely. Gas at room temperature.

Advice for Firefighters:
Stop the flow of gas if it can be done without risk. Use water spray to cool surrounding containers. Continue to cool heat or
flame exposed containers until well after the flames are extinguished. Firefighters should wear a full-face piece,
NIOSH/MSHA- approved self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) operated in positive pressure mode and full turnout gear.
