6.4 Reference to other sections: Refer to sections 8 and 13.

SECTION 7: Handling and storage:

7.1 Precautions for safe handling: Only experienced and properly instructed persons should handle gases under
pressure. Use only properly specified equipment which is suitable for this product,
its supply pressure and temperature. Refer to supplier's handling instructions. The
substance must be handled in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety
procedures. Protect containers from physical damage; do not drag, roll, slide or
drop. Do not remove or deface labels provided by the supplier for the
identification of the container contents. When moving containers, even for short
distances, use appropriate equipment eg. trolley, hand truck, fork truck etc.
Secure cylinders in an upright position at all times, close all valves when not in
use. Provide adequate ventilation. Suck back of water into the container must be
prevented. Do not allow backfeed into the container. Avoid suckback of water,
acid and alkalis. Keep container below 50°C in a well ventilated place. Observe all
regulations and local requirements regarding storage of containers. When using
do not eat, drink or smoke. Store in accordance with
local/regional/national/international regulations. Never use direct flame or
electrical heating devices to raise the pressure of a container. Leave valve
protection caps in place until the container has been secured against either a wall
or bench or placed in a container stand and is ready for use. Damaged valves
should be reported immediately to the supplier Close container valve after each
use and when empty, even if still connected to equipment. Never attempt to
repair or modify container valves or safety relief devices. Replace valve outlet
caps or plugs and container caps where supplied as soon as container is
disconnected from equipment. Keep container valve outlets clean and free from
contaminates particularly oil and water. If user experiences any difficulty
operating container valve discontinue use and contact supplier. Never attempt to
transfer gases from one container to another. Container valve guards or caps
should be in place.

7.2 Conditions for safe storage, Containers should not be stored in conditions likely to encourage corrosion. Stored
including any incompatibilities: containers should be periodically checked for general conditions and leakage.
Container valve guards or caps should be in place. Store containers in location free
from fire risk and away from sources of heat and ignition. Keep away from
combustible material.

7.3 Specific end use(s): None.

8.2 Exposure controls

Appropriate engineering Consider a work permit system e.g. for maintenance activities. Ensure adequate
controls: air ventilation. Provide adequate ventilation, including appropriate local
extraction, to ensure that the defined occupational exposure limit is not
exceeded. Oxygen detectors should be used when asphyxiating gases may be
released. Systems under pressure should be regularly checked for leakages.
Preferably use permanent leak tight connections (eg. welded pipes). Do not eat,
drink or smoke when using the product.

Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment

General information: A risk assessment should be conducted and documented in each work area to
assess the risks related to the use of the product and to select the PPE that
matches the relevant risk. The following recommendations should be considered.
Keep self contained breathing apparatus readily available for emergency use.
Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task
being performed and the risks involved.

Eye/face protection: Wear eye protection to EN 166 when using gases.

Guideline: EN 166 Personal Eye Protection.
