REVISION DATE : 05/26/2015 Page 6 of 13
Incompatible Materials for Storage:
Do not allow product to come in contact with other materials,
including e.g. other pool treatment products, acids, organic
materials, nitrogen-containing compounds, dry powder fire
extinguishers (containing mono-ammonium phosphate), oxidizers,
all corrosive liquids, flammable or combustible materials, etc A
chemical reaction with such substances can cause a fire.
Do Not Store At temperatures
Above:
Average daily temperature of 35° C / 95° F. Storage above this
temperature may result in rapid decomposition, evolution of chlorine
gas and heat sufficient to ignite combustible products.
SECTION 8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Ventilation:
Local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls are normally required
when handling or using this product to keep airborne exposures below the
TLV, PEL or other recommended exposure limit.
Protective Equipment for Routine Use of Product
Respiratory Protection :
Wear a NIOSH approved respirator if levels above the exposure limits are
possible.
Respirator Type :
A NIOSH approved full-face air purifying respirator equipped with
combination chlorine/P100 cartridges. Air purifying respirators should not be
used in oxygen deficient or IDLH atmospheres or if exposure concentrations
exceed ten (10) times the published limit.
Skin Protection :
Wear impervious gloves to avoid skin contact. A full impervious suit is
recommended if exposure is possible to a large portion of the body. A safety
shower should be provided in the immediate work area.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical goggles. Emergency eyewash should be provided in the
immediate work area.
Protective Clothing Type:
Nitrile, Natural rubber, Neoprene (This includes: gloves, boots, apron,
protective suit)
