Limit (PPM) (8 hr
TWA) Short Term Exposure
Limit (PPM) (10 min
period)
Butane 600 750
LPG 1000 1250
Propane None Established. Considered to be an asphyxi-
ate at high concentration in air
(source: India LPG)

not hazardous. Abuse involving deliberate inhalation of
very high concentrations of vapor, even for short periods,
can produce unconsciousness and/or result in a sudden
fatality.
