Handling and storage
Product is non-corrosive and may be used with any common structural material. Silver and carbon bearing alloys can act as catalysts for decomposing the product at high temperatures. Allows containing more than 2% magnesium should not be used if water is present. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Valve protection caps must remain in place unless 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 (<150 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 to trap in the discharge line to prevent hazardous back flow into the cylinder. Protect cylinders from physical damage. Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas of non-combustible construction away from heavily trafficked areas and emergency exits. Do not allow the temperature where cylinders are stored to exceed 125°F (52°C). 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 handling recommendations, consult Compressed Gas Association Pamphlet P-1. Handle with reasonable care. Store in a cool, dry place. Never carry a compressed gas cylinder or a container of a gas in cryogenic liquid form in an enclosed space such a car trunk, van or station wagon. A leak can result in a fire, explosion, asphyxiation or a toxic exposure.
