3.- COMPOSITION/INFORMATION OF THE COMPONENTS


PURE SUBSTANCE
Name of the substance: GAS OXYGEN
Chemical name: Oxygen
Chemical formula: Or 2

Common or Generic Name: Oxygen


Synonymous: Compressed Oxygen / GOX
WILDEBEEST: 1072
CAS: 7782 – 44 – 7
Concentration Range: 99.5 (Minimum)%
MIX: Not applicable

4 .- FIRST AID
Inhalation : If exposure of 3 to 7 atm. has occurred, even the most severe cases will recover rapidly after a prompt reduction in
oxygen pressure. Supportive treatment should include immediate sedation, rest, and anti-seizure therapy if needed.
Skin Contact : Contact with rapidly expanding gas may cause frostbite. If this occurs, immerse affected parts in water no higher than
37°C. Do not heat abruptly. Do not rub frozen parts. Get medical help and transfer to the Assistance Center.
Eye contact : No adverse effects are expected from this product, beyond the projection of particles. Ingestion : Not applicable. It is
not considered a potential route of exposure.
Effects of acute overexposure: Continuous inhalation of concentrations greater than 75% may cause nausea, dizziness, breathing
difficulties and convulsions.
Expected delayed effects: No history
Most important symptoms/effects: Nausea and vertigo.
Protection of First Aid personnel: No special protection required.
5 .- FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Prepared by SHEQ Management P. 1 out of 5 Issue Date 12/2017: Rev: 10


GAS OXYGEN No. 002
Unsuitable extinguishing agent: Oxygen accelerates combustion. A large amount of extinguishing agent should be used with burning
materials. If possible, cut off the oxygen supply. Cool the cylinders with plenty of water from a protected place, as there is a risk of
overpressure. Contact the supplier.
Combustion/thermal degradation products: None for this product.
Specific associated hazards: Oxidant
Specific extinguishing methods : Preferably, use water in the form of fog or spray to cool the containers involved in the fire. If
possible and has occurred, stop the oxygen leak. Materials that burn in oxygen-rich environments increase their combustion
temperature.
Personal protective equipment for fire fighting : Standard mechanical protective equipment. The use of a self-contained respirator is
recommended for closed spaces.

6 .- MEASURES TO TAKE IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL SPILL OR LEAK


Personal precautions: Keep away from gas cloud. Evacuate area and eliminate ignition sources. Do not touch/drink the liquid that
drains.
Emergency procedures if there is a spill : Evacuate personnel from the area, if possible turn off the main supply. Eliminate all
sources of ignition and flammable materials in the vicinity. Contact the supplier.
Emergency personal protective equipment : Cotton or special clothing. Face protection. Gloves. Self-contained breathing apparatus.
Environmental precautions : Not applicable
Methods and materials for containment, confinement and/or abatement : Not applicable to gas
Containment methods : Not applicable
Recovery: Not applicable
Neutralization: Not applicable
Disposal method : Not applicable

7 .- MANIPULATION AND STORAGE


Precautions for safe handling : Use product in well-ventilated areas. Use materials compatible with oxygen and elements free of
petroleum derivatives.
Operational and technical measures: Use only equipment specifically appropriate for this product and its supply pressure and
temperature. Keep equipment free of oil and grease. Open the valve slowly to avoid water hammer. Use only oxygen compatible
lubricants and adjustments. Use only equipment clean for use with oxygen and suitable for the pressure of the container. Keep all
valves clean and free of oil, petroleum or water. Consult the supplier for instructions for use and handling.
Recommendations on handling : Cylinders must be operated according to the supplier's instructions by trained persons. Use only
equipment compatible with the product and free of oil, grease and petroleum derivatives. Do not remove fixed caps. Return with
residual pressure of 25 psi. Do not transfer to other containers.
Contact prevention: Avoid leaks in equipment. Locate in ventilated areas.
Storage condition : Store full and empty cylinders separately. Protect against physical damage. Keep the cylinders tied up. Do not
store next to combustible materials and flammable gases.
Technical Measures: Close the container valve after use, even when empty. You should never attempt to repair or modify container
valves. Replace all valve guards as soon as the vessel has been disconnected from your equipment. Avoid storing in places with
pedestrian traffic. Protect containers from corrosion. Avoid paved areas.
Incompatible substances and mixtures: Petroleum derivatives, flammable substances.
Recommended and unsuitable packaging : Only cylinders authorized by the supplier. Do not transfer.

8 .- EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION


Control parameter : Percentage of oxygen present (< 23%)
Weighted and absolute permissible limits : Not applicable
Respiratory protection : In normal use, protection is not required.
Hand protection : Leather or cryogenic gloves.
Eye protection : Due to the pressure of the cylinders, a face shield or glasses with side protection are recommended.
Skin and body protection : Clothing without synthetic fiber / safety shoes with steel toe caps.
Engineering measures : Avoid leaks in equipment. Risk assessment must be carried out and documented in each work area to
evaluate the risks related to the use of the product and to select personal protective equipment corresponding to the risk. It is
recommended to have self-contained breathing apparatus for use in an emergency. Personal protective equipment must be selected
based on the tasks to be performed and the risks involved. Adequate ventilation in work and storage areas.
