HAZARDS NOT OTHERWISE CLASSIFIED (HNOC) OR NOT COVERED BY GHS:
INHALATION:
INHALATION OF CHLORINE, A COMPONENT OF THIS GAS MIXTURE, MAY LEAD TO
IRRITATION OF THE NOSE AND THROAT. ADDITIONALLY, OVEREXPOSURES TO CHLORINE
CAN CAUSE THE FOLLOWING HEALTH EFFECTS: COUGHING, LABORED BREATHING, SORE
THROAT, AND POTENTIALLY FATAL LUNG DISORDERS (CHEMICAL PNEUMONITIS AND
PULMONARY EDEMA). REPEATED CHLORINE OVEREXPOSURES BY INHALATION CAN RESULT
IN EMPHYSEMA AND EROSION OF TEETH.
NITROGEN IS A SIMPLE ASPHYXIATE. OXYGEN LEVELS SHOULD BE MAINTAINED ABOVE
19.5% AT NORMAL ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE, WHICH IS THE EQUIVALENT TO A PARTIAL
PRESSURE OF 135 MM OF HG. EXPOSURE TO HIGH CONCENTRATIONS OF THIS GAS
MIXTURE IN A CONFINED AREA, MAY EXCLUDE AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF OXYGEN.
EFFECTS OF OXYGEN DEFICIENCY RESULTING FROM SIMPLE ASPHYXIATES MAY INCLUDE:
RAPID BREATHING, DIMINISHED MENTAL ALERTNESS, IMPAIRED MUSCULAR
COORDINATION, FAULTY JUDGMENT, DEPRESSION OF ALL SENSATIONS, EMOTIONAL
INSTABILITY AND FATIGUE. AS ASPHYXIATION PROGRESSES, NAUSEA, VOMITING,
PROSTRATION, AND LOSS OF CONSCIOUSNESS MAY RESULT, EVENTUALLY LEADING
TO CONVULSIONS, COMA AND DEATH.
SKIN CONTACT:
OVER EXPOSURES TO THIS PRODUCT MAY LEAD TO BURNS OR DERMATITIS (RED,
CRACKED, IRRITATED SKIN). CONTACT WITH RAPIDLY EXPANDING GAS NEAR THE
POINT OF RELEASE MAY CAUSE FROSTBITE WITH REDNESS, SKIN COLORCHANGE TO
GRAY OR WHITE, AND BLISTERING
EYE CONTACT:
CONTACT OF THIS PRODUCT WITH THE EYES CAN CAUSE PAIN, REDNESS, AND
PROLONGED EXPOSURE COULD CAUSE BLINDNESS. CONTACT WITH RAPIDLY EXPANDING
GAS NEAR THE POINT OF RELEASE MAY CAUSE FROSTBITE.
INGESTION: NOT ANTICIPATED. PRODUCT IS A GAS AT NORMAL CONDITIONS.
COLORLESS NON-FLAMMABLE GAS. MAY CAUSE SKIN, EYE, AND RESPIRATORY
IRRITATION. THIS PRODUCT CONTAINSCHLORINE WHICH IS TOXIC AT RELATIVELY
LOW CONCENTRATIONS. SYMPTOMS ARE DEPENDENT UPON CONCENTRATION OF CHLORINE
AND DURATION OF EXPOSURE AND MAY BE DELAYED. IF RESPIRATORY, SKIN OR EYE
IRRITATION OCCURS WHEN WORKING WITH THIS PRODUCT, INHALATION EXPOSURE MAY
HAVE ALREADY OCCURRED. PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION IS MANDATORY IN ALL CASES
OF OVEREXPOSURE. NITROGEN ACTS AS ASIMPLE ASPHYXIANT BY DISPLACING OXYGEN
NECESSARY TO SUPPORT LIFE. CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE. USE AND STORE BELOW
125 DEG. F (52 DEG. C).

7782-50-5 0.0002-0.1% CHLORINE
7727-37-9 99.99-99.9998% NITROGEN
| 4 FIRST AID MEASURES | |
INHALATION:
PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION IS MANDATORY IN ALL CASES OF OVEREXPOSURE. RESCUE
PERSONNEL SHOULD BE EQUIPPED WITH SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS.
VICTIMS SHOULD BE ASSISTED TO AN UNCONTAMINATED AREA AND INHALE FRESH AIR.
QUICK REMOVAL FROM THE CONTAMINATED AREA IS MOST IMPORTANT. UNCONSCIOUS
PERSONS SHOULD BE MOVED TO AN UNCONTAMINATED AREA, AND IF BREATHING HAS
STOPPED, ADMINISTER ARTIFICIAL RESUSCITATION AND SUPPLEMENTAL OXYGEN.
FURTHER TREATMENT SHOULD BE SYMPTOMATIC AND SUPPORTIVE.
SKIN CONTACT:
FOR SKIN EXPOSURE, IMMEDIATELY BEGIN DECONTAMINATION WITH RUNNING WATER.
MINIMUM FLUSHING TIME IS 15 MINUTES. REMOVE EXPOSED OR CONTAMINATED
CLOTHING, TAKING CARE NOT TO CONTAMINATE EYES. FOR FROSTBITE, IMMERSE
SKIN IN LUKEWARM WATER. DO NOT USE HOT WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS
OR FROSTBITE OCCURS, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
EYE CONTACT:
IF IRRITATION OF THE EYE DEVELOPS AFTER EXPOSURE TO THIS MIXTURE, OPEN
VICTIM'S EYES WHILE UNDER GENTLE RUNNING WATER. USE SUFFICIENT FORCE TO
OPEN EYELIDS. HAVE VICTIM "ROLL" EYES. MINIMUM FLUSHING IS FOR 15 MINUTES.
SEEK MEDICAL ASSISTANCE IMMEDIATELY, PREFERABLY AN OPHTHALMOLOGIST. IF
FROSTBITE IS SUSPECTED, FLUSH WITH COOL WATER FOR 15 MINUTES AND OBTAIN
IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.
INGESTION:
NONE ANTICIPATED. PRODUCT IS A GAS AT NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND CONDITIONS.
| 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES | |
FLAMMABILITY: NOT FLAMMABLE
FLASH POINT: NOT APPLICABLE
BURNING RATE: NOT APPLICABLE
FLASH POINT METHOD: NOT APPLICABLE
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: NOT APPLICABLE
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: NOT APPLICABLE
UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: NOT APPLICABLE
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS:
NONFLAMMABLE. CYLINDERS MAY RUPTURE VIOLENTLY OR VENT RAPIDLY FROM
PRESSURE WHEN INVOLVED IN A FIRE SITUATION.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
NONE REQUIRED. USE AS APPROPRIATE FOR SURROUNDING MATERIALS
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS:
USE WATER SPRAY TO COOL ADJACENT CYLINDERS AND AREAS. FIREFIGHTERS
SHOULD WEAR RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (SCBA) AND FULL TURNOUT OR BUNKER
GEAR. CONTINUE TO COOL FIRE-EXPOSED CYLINDERS UNTIL WELL AFTER FLAMES
ARE EXTINGUISHED.
| 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES | |
PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS, PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES:
EVACUATE ALL PERSONNEL FROM AFFECTED AREA. USE APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT. IF LEAK IS IN USER'S EQUIPMENT, BE CERTAIN TO PURGE PIPING
WITH INERT GAS PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING REPAIRS. IF LEAK IS IN CONTAINER OR
VALVE, CONTACT THE APPROPRIATE EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBER LISTED IN
SECTION 1 OR CALL YOUR CLOSEST NORCO/NORIAB LOCATION.
ENVIRONMENTAL PRECAUTIONS:
PREVENT FURTHER RELEASE (LEAKAGE/SPILLAGE) IF SAFE TO DO SO. STOP THE FLOW
OF GAS OR REMOVE CYLINDER TO OUTDOOR LOCATION IF THIS CAN BE DONE WITHOUT
RISK. EVACUATE ALL PERSONNEL FROM AFFECTED AREA. VENTILATE ENCLOSED AREAS.
USE APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT. IF LEAK IS IN USER'S EQUIPMENT, BE
CERTAIN TO PURGE PIPING WITH INERT GAS PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING REPAIRS. IF
LEAK IS IN CONTAINER OR VALVE, CONTACT THE APPROPRIATE EMERGENCY TELEPHONE
NUMBER LISTED IN SECTION 1 OR CALL YOUR CLOSEST NORCO/NORLAB LOCATION.
| 7 HANDLING AND STORAGE | |
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
USE ONLY IN WELL-VENTILATED AREAS. VALVE PROTECTION CAPS MUST REMAIN IN
PLACE UNLESS THE CYLINDER IS SECURED WITH VALVE OUTLET PIPED TO USE POINT.
DO NOT DRAG, SLIDE OR ROLL CYLINDERS. USE A SUITABLE HAND TRUCK FOR
CYLINDER MOVEMENT. USE A PRESSURE REGULATOR WHEN CONNECTING CYLINDER TO
LOWER PRESSURE (<3000 PSIG) PIPING OR SYSTEMS. DO NOT HEAT CYLINDER BY
ANY MEANS TO INCREASE THE DISCHARGE RATE OF PRODUCT FROM THE CYLINDER.
USE A CHECK VALVE OR TRAP IN THE DISCHARGE LINE TO PREVENT HAZARDOUS BACK
FLOW INTO THE CYLINDER.
ISOLATE HAZARD AREA, EVACUATE PERSONNEL AND DENY ENTRY TO UNAUTHORIZED/
UNPROTECTED INDIVIDUALS. EXTINGUISH ALL IGNITION SOURCES AND VENTILATE
CLOSED SPACES AND LOW AREAS. PERSONNEL ENTERING AREA SHOULD WEAR
APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
SUITABLE FOR UNKNOWN CONCENTRATIONS. PERSONNEL SHOULD NOT RE-ENTER AN
AREA UNTIL NITRIC OXIDE HAS SUFFICIENTLY DISPERSED AND ADEQUATE OXYGEN
RE-ESTABLISHED. IF A LEAK IS IN USER'S EQUIPMENT, BE CERTAIN TO PURGE
PIPING WITH AN INERT GAS PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING REPAIRS. IF LEAK IS IN
CONTAINER VALVE, CONTACT THE APPROPRIATE EMERGENCY TELEPHONE NUMBER
LISTED IN SECTION 1 OR CALL YOUR CLOSEST NORCO/NORLAB LOCATION.
STORAGE REQUIREMENTS:
PROTECT CYLINDERS FROM PHYSICAL DAMAGE. STORE IN COOL, DRY, WELL-VENTILATED
AREA AWAY FROM HEAVY TRAFFIC AREAS AND EMERGENCY EXITS. DO NOT ALLOW THE
TEMPERATURE WHERE CYLINDERS ARE STORED TO EXCEED 125 DEGREES F
(52 DEGREES C). CYLINDERS SHOULD BE STORED UPRIGHT AND FIRMLY SECURED TO
PREVENT FALLING OR BEING KNOCKED OVER. FULL AND EMPTY CYLINDERS SHOULD BE
SEGREGATED. USE A "FIRST IN-FIRST OUT" INVENTORY SYSTEM TO PREVENT FULL
CYLINDERS FROM BEING STORED FOR EXCESSIVE PERIODS OF TIME. POST "NO SMOKING
OR OPEN FLAMES" SIGN IN THE STORAGE OR USE AREA.
FOR ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS CONSULT COMPRESSED GAS ASSOCIATION PAMPHLET
P-1.
| 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION | |
ENGINEERING CONTROLS:
ALL VENTILATION SHOULD BE DESIGNED IN ACCORDANCE WITH OSHA STANDARD
(29 CFR 1910.94). USE LOCAL EXHAUST AT FILLING ZONES AND WHERE LEAKAGE
AND DUST FORMATION IS PROBABLE. USE MECHANICAL (GENERAL) VENTILATION FOR
STORAGE AREAS. USE APPROPRIATE VENTILATION AS REQUIRED TO KEEP EXPOSURE
LIMITS IN AIR BELOW TLV & PEL LIMITS. MAINTAIN ATMOSPHERIC OXYGEN CONTENT
AT OR ABOVE 19.5%
