SECTION 7: Handling and storage:

7.1 Precautions for safe handling: Only experienced and properly instructed persons should handle gases under
pressure. Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use. Use only
properly specified equipment which is suitable for this product, its supply pressure
and temperature. Keep equipment free from oil and grease. Open valve slowly to
avoid pressure shock. Use only oxygen approved lubricants and sealants. Use only
with equipment cleaned for oxygen service and rated for the pressure. Installation
of a cross purge assembly between the container and the regulator is
recommended. Excess pressure must be vented through an appropriate scrubber
system. 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. Keep
including any incompatibilities: away from food, drink and animal feeding stuffs. Stored 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. Avoid
asphalted locations for storage, transfer and use (ignition risk if spilt). Segregate
from flammable gases and other flammable materials being stored.

7.3 Specific end use(s): None.
