HAZARDS IDENTIFICATIONSkin contact is normally no hazard but should be avoided toprevent possible allergic reactions. Occupational exposurelimits of components are described in paragraph no. 2.When this product is used in a welding process, the mostimportant harzards are heat, radiation, electrical shock andfumes.Heat: Spatter, melting metal and arc rays can causeburn injuries and start fires.Radiation: Arc rays can severely damage eyes and skin.Shock: Electrical shock can kill.Fumes: Overexposure to welding fumes may result insymptoms like dizziness, nausea, dryness or irritationof the nose, throat or eyes. Chronic overexposureto welding fumes affect pulmonary function.4. FIRST AID MEASURESInhalation: If breathing is difficult, provide fresh air andcall physician.Eye contact: For radiation burns due to arc flash, consultphysician.Skin contact: For skin burns from arc radiation, consultphysician.General: Move to fresh air and call for medical aid.5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURESNo specific measures for welding consumables.6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURESPersonal precautions: refer to section 8Environmental precautions: refer to section 13Methods for cleaning up: refer to section 137. HANDLING AND STORAGEHandling: Avoid exposure to welding fumes, radiation, spatter,electrical shock, heated materials and dust. Do notingest. Handle with care to avoid stings and cuts. Spooledwire can spring.Storage: Keep separate from chemical substances like acidswhich could cause chemical reactions.8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTIONEngineering measures: Ensure sufficient ventilation andexhaust at the arc, to keep the welding fumes and gasesaway from welder’s breathing zone.Keep working place and protective clothing clean and dry.Train welder to avoid contact with live electrical parts andinsulate conductor parts. Check condition of protectiveclothing and equipment on a regular basis.Personal protective equipment: Use respirator or air suppliedrespirator when welding in a confined space. Wearhand, eyes and body protection like welder’s gloves, helmetor face shield with filter lens, safety boots, apron, arm andshoulder protection. Keep protective clothing clean and dry.125
