WARNING
Inhalation of chemical gases!
Inhalation of chemical gases is a health hazard.
• Open the container only while the chemical gas is being extracted.
• Please observe the applicable threshold limit values.
• Wear the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE) (suitable protective
clothing, protective gloves, respirator and safety goggles / face shield).
3. Slowly open the dip tube closure (2) with the bung wrench (3) in case the
contents are under pressure. (See Section 3.1)
»
If the container is under pressure when opened, it is drained via the ventilation
holes in the dip tube. You may hear a hissing sound. In this case, do not open
the dip tube closure any further, but wait until no more hissing can be heard.
»
Check whether a bung wrench with a special chamber for neutralization
granulate can be used so that the escaping gases can be additionally neutralized
when opening.
»
If the chemical escapes when the container is opened, the container has been
overfilled by the chemical filler. If this is the case, close the container again
immediately and contact the chemical filler / manufacturer / supplier.
