Consider pressure relief device(s) in gas installations.
Ensure the complete gas system was (or is regularily) checked for leaks before use.
Do not smoke while handling product.
Avoid exposure, obtain special instructions before use.
Use only properly specified equipment which is suitable for this product, its supply pressure
and temperature. Contact your gas supplier if in doubt.
Installation of a cross purge assembly between the container and the regulator is
recommended.
Purge system with dry inert gas (e.g. helium or nitrogen) before gas is introduced and when
system is placed out of service.
Avoid suck back of water, acid and alkalis.
Do not breathe gas.
Avoid release of product into work area.
Safe handling of the gas receptacle : Refer to supplier's container handling instructions.
Do not allow backfeed into the container.
Protect containers 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.
Leave valve protection caps in place until the container has been secured against either a
wall or bench or placed in a container stand and is ready for use.
If user experiences any difficulty operating valve discontinue use and contact supplier.
Never attempt to repair or modify container valves or safety relief devices.
Damaged valves should be reported immediately to the supplier.
Keep container valve outlets clean and free from contaminants particularly oil and water.
Replace valve outlet caps or plugs and container caps where supplied as soon as container
is disconnected from equipment.
Close container valve after each use and when empty, even if still connected to equipment.
Never attempt to transfer gases from one cylinder/container to another.
Never use direct flame or electrical heating devices to raise the pressure of a container.
Do not remove or deface labels provided by the supplier for the identification of the content
of the container.
Suck back of water into the container must be prevented.
Open valve slowly to avoid pressure shock.

7.2. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities


Observe all regulations and local requirements regarding storage of containers.
Containers should not be stored in conditions likely to encourage corrosion.
Container valve guards or caps should be in place.
Containers should be stored in the vertical position and properly secured to prevent them
from falling over.
Stored containers should be periodically checked for general condition and leakage.
Keep container below 50°C in a well ventilated place.
Store containers in location free from fire risk and away from sources of heat and ignition.
Keep away from combustible materials.

1.2.1. Control of environmental exposure:

Product (article) characteristics

Physical form of product See section 9 of the SDS, No additional information

Concentration of substance in product ≤ 100 %

Amount used, frequency and duration of use (or from service life)

Regional use tonnage: ≤ 80000 t/yr

Emission Days (days/year) 365

Technical and organisational conditions and measures

Use appropriate abatement systems to ensure that the emission levels defined by local
regulations are not exceeded.

No emissions to water. In case of emissions to water, pH impact on the receiving water should
be avoided, e.g. by neutralizing the effluent

Ensure operatives are trained to minimise releases

Conditions and measures related to sewage treatment plant

Not applicable as there is no release to wastewater

Other conditions affecting environmental exposure

Closed systems are used in order to prevent


unintended emissions

1.2.2. Control of worker exposure:

Product (article) characteristics

Physical form of product See section 9 of the SDS, No additional information

Concentration of substance in product ≤ 100 %

Amount used (or contained in articles), frequency and duration of use/exposure

The actual tonnage handled per shift is not considered


to influence the exposure as such for this scenario.
Instead, the combination of the scale of operation and
level of containment/automation (as reflected in the
technical conditions) is the main determinant of the
process-intrinsic emission potential.

Exposure duration ≤ 8 h/day

Covers frequency up to: 5 days/week

Technical and organisational conditions and measures

Handle product within a closed system

Ensure operatives are trained to minimise exposure

Ensure supervision is in place to check that the RMMs are in place and are being used
correctly and that the OCs are being followed

Conditions and measures related to personal protection, hygiene and health evaluation

See section 8 of the SDS.

Other conditions affecting workers exposure

Indoor or outdoor use

Technical and organisational conditions and measures

Handle product within a closed system

During indoor processes or in cases where natural ventilation is not sufficient, LEV should be
in place at points were emissions could occur. Outdoor, LEV is not generally required.

Fill containers at dedicated fill points supplied with local extract ventilation.

Drain down and flush system prior to equipment break-in or maintenance.

Apply a good standard of general or controlled ventilation when maintenance activities are
carried out.

Ensure operatives are trained to minimise exposure

Ensure supervision is in place to check that the RMMs are in place and are being used
correctly and that the OCs are being followed

Conditions and measures related to personal protection, hygiene and health evaluation
