3. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

****************************************************************************************************

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW

Self-pressurized container of extremely flammable, liquified gas.

Storage at temperatures above 120

F may create a fire hazard.

****************************************************************************************************

PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY: Respiratory system, eyes and skin.

POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS

EYE CONTACT: Direct contact with liquefied gas can result in frostbite (“cold burn”).

SKIN CONTACT: Exposure to expanding gas or vaporizing liquid may cause frostbite.

INGESTION: Exposure to expanding gas or vaporizing liquid may cause frostbite to

internal organs and tissue. Ingestion not anticipated since components of fuel gas and

propellant are gaseous at ambient pressure and temperature.

INHALATION: May cause asphyxiation in high concentrations. Repeated or prolonged

inhalation may cause toxic effects. See MSDS Section 11 for more information.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES

EYE: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water. Get immediate medical attention.

SKIN: In case of frostbite, do not remove clothes. Get immediate medical attention.

INGESTION: Get immediate medical attention.

INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If

breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get immediate medical attention.
