3. Hazards Identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
A fine black dust may be emitted from the pump if the exhaust is not connected and the pump has run for some time,
at or near the pump's ultimate vacuum. The dust may also be encountered when the pump is dismantled for
servicing.
This dust may irritate the skin, the eyes and the respiratory system. The dust should not be inhaled.
For short and long term exposure effects see Section 11 Toxicological data
Eye Effects: May cause mild Irritation.
Skin Effects: May cause mild irritation.
Ingestion/Oral Effects: May cause gastro-intestinal irritation. Can be harmful.
Inhalation Effects: May cause upper respiratory tract irritation.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: None known

4. First Aid Measures
Get immediate medical attention. Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15
Eyes:
minutes. Do not attempt to remove the material.
Get immediate medical attention. Immediately wash with plenty of water for at least 15
Skin:
minutes. Do not attempt to remove the material. Cover the affected area with a clean
dressing.
Rinse mouth with water, then drink plenty of water.
Ingestion/Oral:
Remove patient to fresh air. If respiratory symptoms develop, get medical attention.
Inhalation:
Inhalation of decomposition products resulting from exposure of the dust to high
Other Information:
temperatures, or from smoking fluoroelastomer contaminated tobacco may cause a
temporary flu-like illness known as "polymer flu fever". Refer to other sections of this
document.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Extinguishing Media: The dust is non-combustible. Use extinguishing media suitable for the surrounding
fire.
Fire and Explosion Hazard: See Section 10 for products of combustion.
Special Protective Equipment Wear full protective clothing, including helmet, self-contained positive pressure or
for Fire Fighters: pressure demand breathing apparatus, tunic and trousers (leggings), bands
around arms, waist and legs, face mask, and protective covering for exposed
areas of the head.
For Flammability Properties - see Section 9
6. Accidental Release Measures
Avoid discharge into the environment. Keep out of drains, sewers and water courses
Evacuate unprotected and untrained personnel from the hazard area. Qualified personnel must clean up the spill.
Ventilate the area with fresh air. Collect as much of the spilled material as possible. Use wet sweeping compound
or water to avoid dusting. Sweep up. Clean up residue. Place in a closed container approved for transportation by
appropriate authorities. Dispose of collected material as soon as possible. Refer to Section 13 for disposal
requirements.
7. Handling and Storage
Handling: Avoid contact with eyes: wear safety goggles/glasses with side shields. Avoid prolonged or
repeated
contact with skin: wear suitable protective gloves. Avoid breathing airborne dust: wear suitable
respiratory equipment where necessary.
Storage: Store away from sources of heat. Store away from areas where the dust may come into contact
with food or pharmaceuticals. Store away from flammable and combustible materials.
