4. FIRST AID MEASURES
4.1 First Aid:
EYES: Flush eyes thoroughly with copious amounts of water for at least 20 minutes, holding eyelids open to ensure complete
flushing. Seek immediate medical attention.
SKIN: Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected areas with soap and water. If irritation persists, seek prompt
medical attention. Launder clothing before reuse.
INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. Call a physician or poison control center for assistance and instructions. Seek immediate
medical attention. If vomiting occurs spontaneously, keep victim’s head lowered (forward) to reduce the risk of
aspiration.
INHALATION: Remove victim to fresh air at once. If breathing is difficult, provide supplemental oxygen. If breathing has stopped,
provide artificial respiration. Seek immediate medical attention. Provide supportive treatment, keeping victim warm
and quiet.
4.2 Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure:
Pre-existing cardiovascular or central nervous system diseases.

5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
5.1 Flashpoint & Method:
NE
5.2 Autoignition Temperature:
ND
5.3 Flammability Limits: Lower Explosive Limit (LEL): NA Upper Explosive Limit (UEL): NA
5.4 Fire & Explosion Hazards:
Cylinders may rupture under fire conditions. This material will become combustible when mixed with air under
pressure and exposed to strong ignition sources. Decomposition may occur. Contact of welding or soldering
torch flames with high concentrations of refrigerant can result in visible changes in the size and color of the torch
flame. The flame effect will only occur in concentrations of product well above the recommended exposure
limit, therefore stop all work and ventilate the area before proceeding. Use forced ventilation to disperse
refrigerant vapors from the work area before using any open flames.
5.5 Extinguishing Methods:
Use media appropriate for surrounding materials.
5.6 Firefighting Procedures:
Wear NIOSH/MSHA approved self-contained breathing apparatus and protective clothing. Use a water spray to
cool containers involved in fire. Do not use direct water stream. Container storage areas exposed to direct flame
contact should be cooled with large quantities of water as needed to prevent weakening of container structure.
Keep containers cool until well after the fire is out to prevent rupture. Prevent runoff from fire control or dilution
from entering sewers, drains, drinking water supply, or any natural waterway.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1 Spills:
Secure spill area, remove or minimize all sources of ignition, and maximize ventilation. Stop spill or leak at source if safely possible. Deny
entry to all unprotected individuals. Individuals involved in the cleanup must wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Recover
free liquid or cover with inert absorbent material and place into appropriate container(s) for disposal. If necessary, dike well ahead of the
spill to prevent runoff into drains, sewers or any natural waterway or drinking supply. Contact appropriate local and/or provincial
authorities for assistance and/or reporting requirements.
