Inhalation: Low concentrations {[O-20%-in air) cause s~ptom similar to that of
being intoxicate. Higher concentrations so as ~ exclude an ad~uate supply of
oxygen to the lungs cause unconsciousness.
As a narcotic gas or intoxicant causes hypercapnia (an excessive amount of carbon
dioxide in the blood). 'Repeated exposures to tolerable levels has not shown deleterious
effects. The major property is the exclusion of an adequate supply of oxygen to
the 1 ungs.

PROMPT MEDICAL ATTENTION IS MANDATORY IN ALL CASES OF OVEREXPOSURE TO ACETYLENE.

Inhalation: Conscious persons should be assisted to an uncontaminated area and inhale
fresh air. Quick removal from the contaminated area is most important. Unconscious
persons should be moved to an uncontaminated area, given mouth-to-mouth resuscitation

Use only in well-ventilated areas. Valve protection caps must remain in place unless
cont~ainer is secured with valve outlet piped to use point. Do not drag, slide or
roll, cylinders. Use a suitable hand truck for cylinder movement. Use a pressure
reducing regulator when removing gas from the cylinder. DO NOT ALLOW THE FREE GAS
TO EXCEED 30 PSIA {207 kPa} ~ 70°F {21.~°C). Do not heat cylinder by any means to
incr~easa the discharge rate of product from the cylinder. Usa a check valve or
trap in the discharge line to prevent hazardous back flow into the cylinder. .
i
Protect cylinders from physicall damage. Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area of
non-.mc~bustible construction away fr~ heavily trafficked areas and emergency exits.
Do ri. mot allow the temperature wiiere cylinders are stored to exceed 130F {54C}.
Cylinders must be stored upright and firmly secured to prevent falling or being
knocked over. Full and empty cylinders should be segregated. Use a "first in-first
our's' inventory system to prevent full cylinders being stored for excessive periods
of time. Post "No Smoking or Open Flames" signs in the storage or use area. There
shou,'ld be no sources of ignition.in the storage or use area.
Since acetylene will explode or'combust if its pressure exceeds 20 psia (207 kPa) it*'*
is ,~hipped dissolved in acetone or dimethYlformamide which is dispersed in a porous
mass within the cylinder. Follow Liquid Air Corporation's instructions for the
maximum withdrawal rate for each size cylinder so that solvent is not withdrawn with
the acetyl erie.
Most metals, except silver, copper, mercury or brasses with more than 66% copper, are
compatible (non corrosive} with acetylene.
Ear~h-grOund and bond all lines and equipment associated with the acetylene system.
Electrical equipment should be.non-sparking or explosion proof. Compressed gas
cylinders should not be refilled except by qualified producers of compressed gases.
Shi~nent of a compressed gas cylinder which has not been filled by the owner or with
his', (written) consent is a violation of Federal Law {49CFR}.
Transport cylinders in well-ventilated vehicles,upright and sui.tably restrained to . ~
prevent movement (Con--ecl on ~ page)

FI. AI~BLE LIMITS % BY VOLUME: (Continued}
Note: Pure acetylene can ignite by decomposition above 30 psia (207 kPa); therefore,
the UEL is 100% if the ignition source is of sufficient intensity.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION ~S: (Continued)
It requires a very low ignition energy so that fires which have bee~i extinguished
without stopping the flow of gas can 'easily reignite with possible'explosive force.
Acetylene has a density very similar to that of air so when leaking~jt does not readily
dissipate. ~,,~
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: (Continued}
Cylinders should not be exposed to sudden shock or sources of heat.
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): (Continued)
copper, mercury, silver, brasses containing ~re than 66% copper and brazing
materials containing silver or copper.

SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Air is nontoxic and necessary to support life. Inhalation of air in a high pressure
environment such as underwater diving, caissons or hyperbaric chambers can result in
symptoms similar to overexposure to pure oxygen. These include tingling of finger, s and
toes, abnormal sensations, impaired coordination and confusion. Decompression
sickness pains or "bends" are possible following rapid decompression.
TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
High pressure effects (greater than two atmospheres of oxygen) are on the central

DOT Shipping Label' Nonflammable gas I.D. No.: UN 1002
SPECIAL HANDLING RECOMMENDATIONS
Valve protection caps must remain in place bnless container is secured with valve
outlet piped to use point. Do not drag, slide or roll cylinders. Use a suitable
hand truck for cylinder movement. Use a pressure reducing regulator when connecting
cylinder to lower pressure (,3,000 psig) piping or systems. Do not heat cylinder by
any means to increase the discharge rate of product from the cylinder. Use a check
valve or trap in the discharge line to prevent hazardous back flow into the cylinder.
For additional handling recommendations consult L'Air Liquide's Encyclopedia de Gaz or Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet p.1.
SPECIAL STORAGE RECOMMENDATIONS
Protect cylinders from physical damage. Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated area
away from heavily trafficked areas and emergency exits. Do not allow the temperature
where cylinders are stored to exceed 130F (54C). Cylinders should be stored upright
and firmly secured to prevent falling or being knocked over. Full and empty cylinders
should be segregated. Use a "first in-first out" inventory system to prevent full
cylinders being stored for excessive periods of time.
For additional storage recommendations consult L'Air Liquide's Encyclopedia de Gaz or Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet P-1.
SP;CIALPACKAGINGRECOMMENDATIONS
Dry air is noncorrosive and may be used with all materials of construction. Moisture
causes metal oxides which are formed with air to be hydrated so that they increase
in volume and lose their protective role (rust formation). Concentrations of S02,
Cl2, salt, etc. in the moisture enhances the rusting of metals in air.
OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS OR PRECAUTIONS '. '..
Compressed gas cylinders should not be refilled except by qualified ~rodu'cers of .;~.'
compressed gases. Shipment of a compressed gas cylinder which has not been filled
by the owner or with his (written) consent is a violation of Federal Law (49CFR).
*Various Government agencies (i.e., Department of Transportation. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Food and Orug Administration and o~ers) may have
specific regulations concernit~g the transportation, handling, storage or use of this product which may not be contained herein, The customer or user of this product should
be familiar with these regulations.
