LD50 LC50 Mixture:LC50 = 416 GM/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-HEADNESS,
    GIDDINESS, BREATH SHORTNESS. CARDIAC ARRTHYMIA W/ UNCONSCIOUSNESS
    OR EVEN DEATH IH HI-CONC W/LONG  EXPOSURES; SKIN?EYES: CONTACT
    W/LIQUIDCAN CAUSE FROSTBITE, OR SKIN IRRITATION.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:CARDIAC PROBLEMS. (PRODUCT IS AN
    ASPHYXIANT & CAN INDUCE CARDIAC MUSCLE SENSIZATION TO CIRCULATING
    EPINEPHRINE-LIKE COMPOUNDS.)

=======================  First Aid Measures  =======================

First Aid:INHAL:REMOVE TO FRESH AIR-GET MED. ATTENTION & GIVE O*2/CPR
    AS REQUIRED FOR SITUATION & HAND; DO NOT GIVE EPINEPHRINE OR
    SIMILIAR DRUGS AS CATECOLAMINES INCREAS RISK OF ELICITING CARDIAC
    DYSRYTHMIAS.  EYES/SKIN: 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 'SCB'WHEN FIGHTING FIRES WHERE CHEMICAL
    ARE INVOLVED. SCBA MAYBE NEEDED IF HALON-1301 CONTAINER RUPTURES OR
    RELEASES MATERIAL IN HEAT OF FIRE.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:IN HEAT OF FIRE, HALON-1301 CONTAINERS
    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 EXPECIALLY LOW PLACES WHERE HEAVY VAPORS 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 VESSELS AWAY FROM HI-TEMPERATURES.
Other Precautions:AVOID UNNECESSARY EXPOSURE TO HALON 1301 ! IN
    EMERGENCY, EXPOSURE SHOULD BE LIMITED TO: 0.07, 15 MIN; 7-15%, I
    MIN;10-15%, 30SEC; & FOR >15%, PREVENT EXPOSURE. SMALL CONC( 5%) OF
    HALON EXTINGUISHS FLA MES BY CHEMICALLY INTERR. COMBUST.

=============  Exposure Controls/Personal Protection  =============

Respiratory Protection:NOT NORMALLY NEXESSARY 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/TEL.
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:OBSDRVE PROCEDURE SET FORTH BY SAFETY/ IH
    PERSONNEL FOR USE OF THIS MATERIAL/FOR TASK AT HAND.
Supplemental Safety and Health
SMALL CONC( 5%) OF HALON EXTINGUISH FLAMES BY CHEMICALLY INTERRUPTING
    COMBUSTION-NOT BY REPLACING O*2. HOWEVER, VAPORIZATI0ON OF
    EXCESSIVE AMTS. CAN DEPLETE OR REPLACE O*2 NEEDED FOR BREATHING;
    GENERI C 'MSDS' ON NSN IDENTFIED BY "DCSC". UPON RECEIPT OF A MFR'S
    MSDS UNDER THISNSN, THE GENERIC WILL BE REMV
