HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
==============================================================================
Route Of Entry Inds - Inhalation: NO Skin: NO Ingestion: NO
Carcinogenicity Inds - NTP: NO IARC: NO OSHA: NO
Health Hazards Acute And Chronic: XYLENE CONTAINED IN GLASS THERMOMETER.
EXPOSURE TO SMALL AMOUNTS OF XYLENE ONLY IF THERMOMETER IS BROKEN. SKIN/EYE
CONTACT MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. NOT ENOUGH XYLENE CONTAINED IN THERMOMETER TO
POSE A THREAT VIA INGESTION OR INHALATION.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity: THIS COMPOUND CONTAINS NO INGREDIENTS AT
CONCENTRATIONS OF 0.1% OR GREATER THAT ARE CARCINOGENS OR SUSPECT CARCINOGENS.
Signs and Symptoms of Overexposure: VAPORS ARE IRRITATING TO EYES, NOSE AND
THROAT. SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. EYE CONTACT MAY CAUSE IRRITATION.
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Overexposure: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
==============================================================================
FIRST AID
==============================================================================
EYES: FLUSH WITH WATER FOR 15 MINUTES WHILE HOLDING EYELIDS OPEN. GET MEDICAL
ATTENTION. SKIN: REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. WASH WITH SOAP AND WATER. IF
IRRITATION PERSIST, GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR.
RESTORE BR EATHING. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
IF OCCURS, KEEP HEAD BELOW HIPS. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION.

FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
==============================================================================
Flash Point Text: 80.6F,27.0C
Auto Ignition Temperature Text:
Lower Limits: 1.00 % Upper Limits: 7.00 %
Extinguishing Media: FOAM, CARBON DIOXIDE, DRY CHEMICAL, WATER FOG
Fire Fighting Procedures: FIRE FIGHTERS SHOULD WEAR SELF CONTAINED BREATHING
APPARATUS AND FULL PROTECTIVE GEAR. COOL TANKS AND CONTAINERS EXPOSED TO FIRE
WITH WATER.
Unusal Fire/Explosion Hazard: WATER MAY BE INEFFECTIVE. EXTINGUISH ONLY IF FLOW
CAN BE STOPPED.
==============================================================================
RELEASE MEASURES
==============================================================================
Spill Release Procedures: ABSORB LIQUID WITH SUITABLE ABSORBANT. CAREFULLY
COLLECT BROKEN GLASS. COLLECT FOR PROPER DISPOSAL.
Neutralizing Agent: NONE SPECIFIED BY MANUFACTURER.
Waste Disposal Methods: PREVENT WASTE FROM CONTAMINATING SURROUNDING
ENVIRONMENT. DISCARD ANY PRODUCT, RESIDUE, DISPOSAL CONTAINER OR LINER IN
ACCORDANCE WITH ALL FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL REGULATIONS.
==============================================================================
HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
AVOID CONTAC WITH HEAT, SPARKS, FLAMES OR OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION. AVOID
OVERHEATING OF CONTAINERS. PROTECT AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE.
==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
Respiratory Protection: IF EXPOSURE MAY OR DOES EXCEED OCCUPATION EXPOSURE LIMITS
USE A NIOSH-APPROVED RESPIRATOR TO PREVENT OVEREXPOSURE. IN ACCORD WITH 29 CFR
1910.134 USE EITHER AN ATMOSPHERE-SUPPLYING RESPIRATOR OR AN AIR-PURIFYING
RESPIRATOR.
Ventilation: EXHAUST VENTILATION SUFFICIENT TO KEEP AIRBORNE CONCENTRATIONS
BELOW RESPECTIVE TLV'S.
Protective Gloves: RECOMMENDE FOR SPILLS
Eye Protection: SPLASH PROOF OR DUST RESISTANT GOGGLES
Other Equipment: CHEMICAL RESISTANT CLOTHING AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT SKIN
CONTACT. AN EMERGENCY EYEWASH AND SHOWER SHOULD BE AVAILABLE.
Work Hygenic Practices: CHEMICAL RESISTANT CLOTHING AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT
SKIN CONTACT. AN EMERGENCY EYEWASH AND SHOWER SHOULD BE AVAILABLE.
Supplemental Safety & Health: THE HAZARDOUS MATERIAL HAS A VOLUME OF 3.8
ML. REMOVE AND WASH CONTAMINATED CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE.
