7. Handling and storage
Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button is missing
or defective. Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke
while using or until sprayed surface is thoroughly dry. Do not cut, weld, solder, drill, grind, or
expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. All equipment used when
handling the product must be grounded. Close valve after each use and when empty. Protect
cylinders from physical damage; do not drag, roll, slide, or drop. When moving cylinders, even for
short distances, use a cart (trolley, hand truck, etc.) designed to transport cylinders. Suck back of
water into the container must be prevented. Do not allow backfeed into the container. Purge air
from system before introducing gas. Use only properly specified equipment which is suitable for
this product, its supply pressure and temperature. Contact your gas supplier if in doubt. Do not
re-use empty containers. Avoid breathing gas. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid
prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Observe good industrial
hygiene practices.
Precautions for safe handling
Level 1 Aerosol.
Store locked up. Pressurized container. Protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures
exceeding 50°C/122 °F. Do not puncture, incinerate or crush. Do not handle or store near an open
flame, heat or other sources of ignition. This material can accumulate static charge which may
cause spark and become an ignition source. Store in a well-ventilated place. Cylinders should be
stored upright, with valve protection cap in place, and firmly secured to prevent falling or being
knocked over. Stored containers should be periodically checked for general condition and leakage.
Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS).

No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
Biological limit values
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Appropriate engineering
controls
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Face shield is recommended. Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Eye/face protection
Skin protection
Wear appropriate chemical resistant gloves. Suitable gloves can be recommended by the glove
supplier.
Hand protection
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing. Use of an impervious apron is recommended.
Other
If permissible levels are exceeded use NIOSH mechanical filter / organic vapor cartridge or an
air-supplied respirator.
Respiratory protection
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
Thermal hazards
When using do not smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing
after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work
clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants. Contaminated work clothing should not
be allowed out of the workplace.
