===================== Hazards Identification =====================
LD50 LC50 Mixture:LC50=416 GMM/CUM (RAT)
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:NO Ingestion:NO
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:NO IARC:NO OSHA:NO
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:ACUTE: ASPHYXIANT, CNS' & PULMONARY
EFFECTS. SKIN IRRITANT. CHRONIC:NONE KNOWN.
Effects of Overexposure:INHAL:DIZZINESS,DISORIENTATION, IMPAIRED
COORDINATION, NARCOSIS, NAUSEA, OR VOMITING, LIGHT-HEADEDNESS,
GIDDINESS, BREATH SHORTNESS. CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA W/UNCONSCIOUSNESS
OR EVEN DEATH IN HI-CONC W/LON G EXPOSURES; SKIN/EYES: CONTACT W/
LIQUID CAN CAUSE FROSTBITE, OR SKIN IRRITATION.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:CARDIAC PROBLEMS. (PRODUCT IS AN
ASPHYXIANT & CAN INDUCE CARDIAC MUSCLE SENSITIZATION TO
CIRCULATINGH EPINEPHRINE-LIKE COMPOUNDS.)
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:INHAL:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR-GET MED ATTN & GIVE O*2/CPR AS
REQUIRED FOR SITUATION @ HAND;DONOT GIVE EPINEPHRINE OR SIMILAR
DRUGS AS CATECOLAMINES INCREASE RISK OF ELICITING CARDIAC
DYSRYTHMIAS. EYES/SKI N:FLUSH W/WATER-TREAT FOR FROSTBITE W/MEDICAL
ATTN; INGEST:NOT LIKELY TO OCCUR.
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Flash Point:NONE
Extinguishing Media:MATERIAL IS A FIRE EXTINGUISHANT & IS
NON-FLAMMABLE. USE MEDIA APPROPRIATE FOR SURROUNDING FIRE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:USE SCBA' WHEN FIGHTING FIRES WHERE CHEMICALS
ARE INVOLVED. SCBA MAY BE NEEDED IF HALON-1301 CONTAINER RUPTURES
OR RELEASES MATERIAL IN HEAT OF FIRE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:IN HEAT OF FIRE, HALON-1301 CONTAINER
EXPOSED TO INTENSE HEAT OF FIRE MAY RUPTURE & MATERIAL COMPOSITION
MAY OCCUR.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:EVACUATE AREA OF UNNEEDED PERSONNEL, VENTILATE
AREA ESPECIALLY LOW PLACES WHERE HEAVY VAPORS MIGHT COLLECT. COOL
OR REMOVE HOT METAL SURFACES OR SOURCES OF NON-EXTINGUISHED FLAMES.
====================== Handling and Storage ======================
Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE & HANDLE AS A LIQUIFIED
COMPRESSED GAS IN DOT' APPROVED PRESSURE VESSELS AWAY FROM
HI-TEMPERATURES.
Other Precautions:AVOID UNNECESSARY EXPOSURE TO HALON 1301! IN
EMERGENCY, EXPOSURE SHOULD BE LIMITED TO: 0-7%, 15 MIN; 7-15%, 1
MIN; 10-15%, 30 SEC; & FOR >15%, PREVENT EXPOSURE. SMALL CONC(5%)
OF HALON EXTINGUISHES FL AMES BY CHEMICALLY INTERR. COMBUST.
============= Exposure Controls/Personal Protection =============
Respiratory Protection:NOT NORMALLY NECESSARY IF PROPER ENGINEERING
CONTROLS ARE IN PLACE. IF PEL/TLV ARE EXCEEDED, USE POSITIVE
PRESSURE AIR-SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR. REVIEW 29CFR1910.134
INSTRUCTIONS/WARNINGS AS WELL AS NIOSH- RESPIRATOR DECISION LOGIC
PUB87.108.
Ventilation:PROVIDE SUFFICIENT GENERAL/LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION IN
PATTERN/VOLUME TO CONTROL INHALATION EXPOSURES BELOW PEL/TLV.
Protective Gloves:LINED BUTYL OR AS REQUIRED FOR TASK.
Eye Protection:CHEMICAL SPLASH TYPE OR AS REQ FOR TASK.
Other Protective Equipment:AS REQUIRED TO MINIMIZE EXPOSURE & MAXIMIZE
INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION.
Work Hygienic Practices:OBSERVE PRECEDURES SET FORTH BY SAFETY/IH
PERSONNEL FOR USE OF THIS MATERIAL FOR TASKS AT HAND.
Supplemental Safety and Health
SMALL CONC(5%) OF HALON EXTINHGUISH FLAMES BY CHEMICALLY INTERRUPTING
COMBUSTION-NOT BY REPLACING O*2. HOWEVER, VAPORIZATION OF EXCESSIVE
AMTS CAN DEPLETE OR REPLACE O*2 NEEDED FOR BREATHING; GENERIC
MSDS' ON NSN IDENTIFIED BY "DCSC". UPON RECEIPT OF A MFR'S MSDS
UNDER THIS NSN, THE GENERIC WILL BE REMV.
