Section 11 — Toxicological Information
VALUE (LD50 or LC50) Animal Routes Components
>788.696 ppm/4H Rat Acute Inhalation 1.1.1.2.3.3.3 Heptafluoropropane
The human health hazards of this product are expected to be similar to other liquefied gases
including N2, C02, CFCs, HCFCs, and HBFCs. Therefore, direct eye or skin contact with the
liquid or cold gas can cause chilling or possibly frostbite of exposed tissues. Inhalation of
high concentrations can be harmful or fatal due to oxygen deprivation and/or heart irregulari-
ties (arrhythmias). Misuse of the products by deliberately inhaling high concentrations of this
gas could cause death without warning. Persons with preexisting cardiac or central nervous
system disorders may be more susceptible to effects of an overexposure.
