Pro-Link DISINFECTANT SPRAY RA008-CA EN - Manual (Page 3)

6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures Consider initial downwind evacuation for at least 500 meters (1/3 mile). Keep unnecessary
personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of low areas. Pay
attention to flashback. Many gases are heavier than air and will spread along ground and collect in
low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Wear appropriate protective equipment and
clothing during clean-up. Fully encapsulating, vapor protective clothing should be worn for spills
and leaks with no fire. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing
appropriate protective clothing. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of vapors during disposal of
spills. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Local authorities should be advised if
significant spillages cannot be contained. For personal protection, see section 8 of the MSDS.
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up Refer to attached safety data sheets and/or instructions for use. Eliminate all ignition sources (no
smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.)
away from spilled material. Many gases are heavier than air and will spread along ground and
collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Keep out of low areas. Stop leak if
you can do so without risk. Move the cylinder to a safe and open area if the leak is irreparable. If
possible, turn leaking containers so that gas escapes rather than liquid. Isolate area until gas has
dispersed. Collect spillage. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas.
Following product recovery, flush area with water. Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual
contamination. This material and its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste. For waste
disposal, see section 13 of the MSDS.
Environmental precautions Avoid release to the environment. Contact local authorities in case of spillage to drain/aquatic
environment. Do not contaminate water. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the
ground.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. May be ignited by open flame.
Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button is missing
or defective. Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke
while using or until sprayed surface is thoroughly dry. Do not cut, weld, solder, drill, grind, or
expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. All equipment used when
handling the product must be grounded. Do not re-use empty containers. Do not breathe gas. Do
not get this material in contact with eyes. Avoid contact with skin. Avoid contact during
pregnancy/while nursing. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use only in area provided with appropriate
exhaust ventilation. Use personal protective equipment as required. Observe good industrial
hygiene practices. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do
not empty into drains.
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities Store locked up. Pressurized container. Protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures
exceeding 50°C/122 °F. The pressure in sealed containers can increase under the influence of
heat. Do not puncture, incinerate or crush. Do not handle or store near an open flame, heat or
other sources of ignition. This material can accumulate static charge which may cause spark and
become an ignition source. Store in a well-ventilated place. Keep away from food, drink and animal
feedingstuffs. Keep in an area equipped with sprinklers. Store away from incompatible materials
(see Section 10 of the MSDS). Level 1 Aerosol (NFPA 30B)
