2. Composition / information on ingredients
Electrolyte containing sulphuric acid (H2SO4), proprietary catalyst alloy electrodes, enclosed in a plastic
based housing with attached metal connections.
3. Hazards Identification
The electrolyte inside the sensor constitutes the main potential hazard. This may leak out should the
housing be damaged or tampered with.
3.1. Inhalation of electrolyte:
Inhalation is not an expected hazard unless heated to high temperatures. Mist or vapour inhalation
can cause irritation to the nose, throat, and upper respiratory tract.
3.2. Ingestion of electrolyte:
Corrosive. May cause sore throat, abdominal pain, nausea, and severe burns of the mouth, throat,
and stomach.
3.3. Skin or eye contact of electrolyte:
Corrosive. May cause redness, pain, blurred vision, and eye burns.
3.4. Aggravation of pre-existing conditions:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems, or impaired respiratory function
may be more susceptible to the effects of the substance.
MSDS 5, Issue 1, Jan 2007
4. First-Aid Measures
In case of leakage and:
4.1. Eye contact with electrolyte:
Irrigate thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical advice.
4.2. Inhalation of electrolyte:
Remove to fresh air. Rest and keep warm. Obtain medical advice if applicable.
4.3. Skin contact with electrolyte:
Immediately flush the skin thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contaminated
clothing and wash before re-use. Obtain medical advice if continued irritation.
4.4. Ingestion of electrolyte:
If swallowed DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Wash out mouth thoroughly with water and give plenty of
water to drink. Obtain medical advice.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
5.1. Fire:
Not considered to be a fire hazard.
5.2. Explosion:
Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
5.3. Fire extinguishing media:
Use any means suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire.
6. Accidental release measures
6.1. Damage
Should any CiTiceL庐 be so severely damaged or tampered with that the leakage of the
contents occurs then the following procedures should be adopted:
鈥? Avoid skin contact with any liquid or internal component through the use of protective gloves.
鈥? Disconnect CiTiceL庐 if it is attached to any equipment.
鈥? Use copious amounts of clean water to wash away any spilt electrolyte, particularly important in
equipment because of the corrosive nature of the electrolyte.
鈥? Observe first aid measures in case of eye contact, inhalation, skin contact or ingestion of
electrolyte.
7. Handling and Storage
Must not be exposed to temperatures outside the range specified on the specification sheet.
Should not be exposed to organic vapours, which may cause physical damage to the body of the sensor.
Must not be stored in areas containing organic solvents or in flammable liquid stores.
8. Exposure controls / personal protection
None in normal operation
9. Physical and chemical properties
Sensor is a sealed unit
MSDS 5, Issue 1, Jan 2007
10. Stability and reactivity
N/A
11. Toxicological information
Electrolyte is corrosive to eyes, respiratory system and skin.
12. Ecological Information
Harmful effect on aquatic organisms. Harmful effect due to pH shift. Toxic effect on fish and algae.
13. Disposal Considerations
Contains toxic compounds irrespective of physical condition.
Should be disposed of according to local waste management requirements and environmental legislation.
Should not be burnt since they may evolve toxic fumes.
14. Transport Regulations
Electrochemical gas sensors are classed as non-dangerous and may be transported without special packing,
labels etc. It is important, however, to check any local regulations.
15. Regulatory information
R-Phrases: 35
Causes severe burns.
S-Phrases: 26-30-45
In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Never
add water to this product. In case of accident or you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately.
