Page 2: Isobutane Continued
This product may displace oxygen if released in a confined space. Maintain oxygen levels above
19.5% at sea level to prevent asphyxiation. Effects of oxygen deficiency resulting from simple
asphyxiants may include: rapid breahing, diminished mental alertness, impaired muscular
coordination, faulty judgement, depression of all sensations, emotional instability, and fatigue. As
asphyxiation progresses, nausea, vomiting, prostration, and loss of consciousness may result,
eventually leading to convulsions, coma, and death.
Oxygen deficiency during pregnancy has produced developmental abnormalities in humans and
experimental animals.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS.
Isobutane is heavier than air and may travel a considerable distance to an ignition source.
Isobutane is a flammable gas! Keep away from open flame and other sources of ignition. Do not
allow smoking in storage areas or when handling.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Water, Carbon dioxide, Dry chemical.
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
If possible, stop the flow of gas with a remote valve.. Use water spray to cool exposed
containers. If fire is extinguished and flow of gas is continues, increase ventilation to prevent a
build up of a flammable/explosive atmosphere. Extinguish sources of ignition.
