Safety instructions for gas R600a
Measures in case of an unexpected release
If ventilation is possible, allow the material to evaporate.
Characteristics of the gas
The gas is highly fl ammable, it is necessary to completely prevent contact with an open fl ame and hot surfaces.
Because the R600a gas is heavier than air, it may become very concentrated at the level of the ground, where
ventilation is weak.
First aid
Inhalation
Take the aff ected person from the contaminated area to a warm, well ventilated location. Staying in
a contaminated location for a long time may cause suff ocation, or potentially loss of consciousness. If
necessary, provide mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and in exceptionally serious situations, under expert
medical supervision, give oxygen.
Contact with the skin
Random contact with the skin will not endanger health, it is better to thoroughly wash the aff ected area. The
liquid spray or dispersed liquid may cause frost bite, wash the aff ected area with large amounts of water and
contact a medical doctor.
Contact with the eyes
If eyes have been aff ected, wash out with large amounts of water, while trying to keep the eyes open, and call
a specialised doctor as soon as possible.
If contact or inhalation of the R600a gas occurs, contact your medical doctor.
