HAZARD DATA: OXYGEN IS THE "VITAL ELEMENT" IN THE ATMOSPHERE IN
WHICH WE LIVE AND BREATHE. BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS (GREATER
THAN 75 MOLAR PERCENT) CAUSES SYMP TOMS OF HYPEROXIA WHICH INCLUDES
CRAMPS, NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, HYPOTHERMIA, AMBLYOPIA, RESPIRATORY
DIFFICULTIES, BRADYCARDIA, FAINTING SPELLS, AND CONVULSIONS CAPABLE
OF LEADING TO DEATH.

Effects of Overexposure:BREATHING HIGH CONCENTRATIONS (GREATER THAN 75
MOLAR PERCENT) CAUSES SYMPTOMS OF HYPEROXIA WHICH INCLUDES CRAMPS,
NAUSEA, DIZZINESS, HYPOTHERMIA, AMBLYOPIA, RESPIRATORY
DIFFICULTIES, BRADYCARDIA, FAIN TING SPELLS, AND CONVULSIONS
