FIRE  EXTINGUISHING  MEDIA

Ansul “Purple K” potassium bicarbonate dry chemical, any appropriately sized ABC dry chemical, carbon dioxide or foam extinguisher can be used for small fires.  Use of water fog by trained personnel can extinguish small/large fires.

SPECIAL  FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES

Evacuate enclosed areas.  Stay upwind.  Close quarters or confined spaces require self-contained breathing apparatus, positive pressure hose masks or airline masks.  Use of water fog by trained personnel can extinguish small/large fires and avoid water flow or water streams/spray distributing burning material or contaminated water over large area or into sewers or storm drains. Use water spray to cool containers, to flush spills from source of ignition and disperse vapors.

UNUSAL  FIRE  AND  EXPLOSION  HAZARD

FIRE HAZARD BECAUSE OF LOW FLASH POINT AND HIGH VOLATILITY.  VAPORS ARE HEAVIER THAN AIR AND MAY TRAVEL TO SOURCE (S) OF IGNITION AT OR NEAR GROUND OR LOWER LEVEL (S) AND FLASH BACK.

SECTION  V  - HEALTH  HAZARD  DATA

PRIMARY  ROUTES  OR  ENTRY        __X__Inhalation              __X__Skin contact           ______Eye contact     ______Ingestion             

EFFECT OF  OVEREXPOSURE

INHALATION: SEVERE OVEREXPOSURE MAY RESULT IN NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, HEADACHE. CAN CAUSE DROWSINESS, IRRITATION OF EYES AND NASAL PASSAGES.

SKIN CONTACT: SKIN IRRITANT. LIQUID CONTACT MAY REMOVE NATURAL IN SKIN IRRITATION. DERMATITIS MAY OCCUR WITH PROLONED CONTACT.

SKIN ABSORPTION: PROLONGED OR WIDESPREAD EXPOSURE MAY RESULT IN THE ABSORPTION OF HARMFUL AMOUNTS OF MATERIAL.

EYE CONTACT: OVEREXPOSURE MAY RESULT IN SEVERE EYE INJURY WITH CORNEAL OR CONJUCTIVAL INFLAMMATION ON CONTACT WITH THE LIQUID. VAPORS SLIGHTLY UNCOMFORTABLE.

INGESTION: MODERATELY TOXIC. MAY CAUSE NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIARRHEA. MAY CAUSE MENTAL SLUGGISHNESS.

CHRONIC: HIGH VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS MAY PRODUCE CNS DEPRESSION.  DEPRESSION MAY BE EVIDENCED BY HEADACHE, DIZZINESS AND NAUSEA. ASPIRATED MATERIAL MAY CAUSE SEVERE LUNG DAMAGE AND PRESENT A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD.

MEDICAL  CONDITIONS  AGGRAVATED  BY  EXPOSURE

INDIVIDUALS WITH PRE-EXISTING DISEASES OF THE EYES, SKIN OR RESPIRATORY SYSTEM MAY HAVE INCREASED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO THE TOXICITY OF EXCESSIVE EXPOSURES.

EMERGENCY AND  FIRST  AID  PROCEDURES

INHALATION: IF OVERCOME BY VAPORS, REMOVE TO FRESH AIR AND IF BREATHING STOPPED, GIVE ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION.  IF BREATHING IS DIFFICULT, GIVE OXYGEN.  CALL PHYSICIAN.

EYE CONTACT: FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER FOR 15 MINUTES AND CALL A PHYSICIAN.

SKIN CONTACT: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING AND SHOES.  WASH SKIN WITH PLENTY OF SOAP AND WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES.  IF IRRITATION DEVELOPS, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

INGESTION: GIVE 1 OR 2 GLASSES OF WATER OR MILK. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. CALL PHYSICIAN OR POISON CONTROL CENTER IMMEDIATELY.

SECTION  VII  -  SPILL  OR  LEAK  PROCEDURES

STEPS  TO  BE  TAKEN  IN  CASE  MATERIAL  IS  RELEASED  OR  SPILLED

ELIMINATE ALL IGNITION SOURCES.  AVOID BREATHING VAPORS. KEEP LIQUID OUT OF EYES. FLUSH WITH LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER. CONTAIN LIQUID WITH SAND OR EARTH. ABSORB WITH SAND OR NONFLAMMABLE ABSORBENT MATERIAL AND TRANSFER INTO STEEL DRUMS FOR RECOVERY OR DISPOSAL.  PREVENT LIQUID FROM ENTERING DRAINS.

WASTE  DISPOSAL  METHOD

SECTION  VIII  -  SPECIAL  PROTECTION  INFORMATION

RESPIRATORY  PROTECTION (Specify type)

ATMOSPHERIC LEVELS SHOULD BE MAINTAINED  BELOW ESTABLISHED EXPOSURE LIMITS CONTAINED IN SECTIONII.  IF AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS EXCEED THOSE LIMITS, USE OF A NIOSH APPROVED ORGANIC VAPOR CARTRIDGE RESPIRATOR WITH FULL FACE-PIECE IS RECOMMENDED. THE EFFECTIVENESS OF AN AIR PURIFYING RESPIRATOR IS LIMITED. USE IT ONLY FOR A SINGLE SHORT-TERM EXPOSURE GUIDELINES MAY BE EXCEEDED, USE AN APPROVES POSITIVE PRESSURE SELF-CONATAINED BREATHING APPARATUS.

VENTILATION

USE ONLY WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. PROVIDE SUFFICIENT IN VOLUME AND PATTERN TO KEEP CONTAMINANTS BELOW APPLICABLE EXPOSURE LIMITS SET FORTH IN SECTION II. USE ONLY EXPLOSION PROOF VENTILATION EQUIPMENT.
