Yes.
Special protective equipment for
fire-fighters

gear. Use personal protection equipment.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Personal precautions

Precautions for safe handling
Advice on safe handling
Use personal protection equipment. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open
flames and other ignition sources. No smoking. Do not spray on an open flame or other
ignition source. Take necessary action to avoid static electricity discharge (which might
cause ignition of organic vapors). Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment.
Handle product only in closed system or provide appropriate exhaust ventilation. Keep in an
area equipped with sprinklers. Do not puncture or incinerate cans. Contents under
pressure. In case of rupture. Avoid breathing vapors or mists. Empty containers pose a
potential fire and explosion hazard. Do not cut, puncture of weld containers. Handle in
