FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
■
Bring bystanders to safety! If possible, close
the valve on the gas cylinder. Cool off the
gas cylinder with water. When doing so,
pay attention to your own safety! A repeated
spontaneous, explosive combustion is
possible.
■
In case of fire, filled compressed-gas
cylinders should be removed from the
flammable surroundings. If this is not
possible, the compressed-gas cylinders
should be protected against too intensive
heat by spraying them with water or similar
suitable means from a protected location.
MEASURES AFTER INHALING GAS

High concentrations can cause suffocation.
Symptoms can be the loss of the ability to move
and consciousness. The victim is not aware
of being suffocated. In low concentrations
dizziness, headaches, nausea and problems
with coordination can arise.
