Storage
Open/close valve slowly. Close when not in use. Wear Safety Eye Protection. Check Safety Data Sheet before
use. Use a back flow preventative device in the piping. Use equipment rated for cylinder pressure. Close valve
after each use and when empty. Read and follow the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Full containers
should be stored so that oldest s tock is used first. Containers should be stored in a purpose build compound
which should be well ventilated, preferably in the open air. Stored containers should be periodically checked for
general condition and leakage. Observe all regulations and local requirements regarding storage of containers.
Protect containers stored in the open against rusting and extremes of weather. Containers should not be stored
in conditions likely to encourage corrosion. Containers should be stored in the vertical position and properly
secured to prevent toppling. The container valves should be tightly closed and where appropriate valve outlets
should be capped or plugged. Container valve guards or caps should be in place. Keep containers tightly closed
in a cool, well-ventilated place. Store containers in location free from fire risk and away from sources of heat and
ignition. Full and empty cylinders should be segregated. Do not allow storage temperature to exceed 50°C
(122°F). Return empty containers in a timely manner.
Technical measures/Precautions
Containers should be segregated in the storage area according to the various categories (e.g. flammable, toxic,
etc.) and in accordance whit local regulations. Keep away from combustible material.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering measures
Provide natural or mechanical ventilation to prevent oxygen deficient atmospheres below 19.5%
oxygen.
Personal protective equipment
Respiratory protection
: Self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or positive pressure airline with
mask are to be used in oxygen-deficient atmosphere.
Air purifying respirators will not provide protection. Users of breathing
apparatus must be trained.
Hand protection
: Wear working gloves when handling gas containers.
Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard
should be worn at all times when handling chemical products if a risk
assessment indicates this is necessary.
Eye protection
: Safety glasses recommended when handling cylinders.
Skin and body protection
: Safety shoes are recommended when handling cylinders.
Special instructions for
protection and hygiene
: Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas.
Remarks
: Simple asphyxiant.
