Section 5 Fire Fighting Measures

Revision # 1 Page 1 of 6
Revision Date 09/30/2015
Suitable fire extinguishing media:
Use water spray, fog or foam.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical:
Flammable aerosol. In a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst, with the risk of
subsequent explosion. Gas may accumulate in low or confined areas or travel a considerable distance to a source of ignition
and flash back, causing fire or explosion. Bursting aerosol containers may be propelled from a fire at high speed.
Hazardous thermal decomposition products:
Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide
Specific fire-fighting methods:
Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if there is a fire. No action shall be taken
involving any personal risk or without suitable training. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use
water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Special protective equipment for fire fighters:
Fire fighters should wear appropriate protective equipment and self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with a full
face-piece operated in a positive pressure mode.

Section 6 Accidental Release Measures


Personal precautions:
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8)
Environmental precautions and clean-up methods:
Stop all leaks. Isolate hazard area. Keep unnecessary and unprotected personnel from entering. Eliminate all ignition sources.
Disperse vapors with water spray. Prevent runoff from entering drains, sewers, streams or other bodies of water. Absorb spill
with inert material. Absorb unrecoverable product. Transfer contaminated absorbent, soil and other materials to containers for
disposal.

Section 7 Handling and Storage


Do not use or store near heat, sparks or open flame. Exposure to temperatures above 120 F may cause bursting. Do not
puncture or incinerate container. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Intentional misuse by
deliberately concentrating and inhaling may be harmful or fatal. Keep out of reach of children.

Section 8 Exposure Controls/Personal Protection


Hydrotreated Heavy Naphthenic Distillate
ACGIH TLV 5 mg/m3
OSHA PEL 5 mg/m3

Hydrotreated Petroleum Distillate


OSHA PEL 100 ppm

Propane

Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses or goggles.
Skin Protection: To prevent repeated or prolonged contact, wear impervious gloves (made from rubber, nitrile or neoprene).
Respiratory Protection: When respiratory protection is required use an organic vapor cartridge. A respiratory program that
meets OSHA's 29 CFR 1910.34 & ANSI Z88.2requirements must be followed.
Engineering Controls: Good general ventilation required.
