This is a colorless, gas mixture, with a distinct “rotten egg” odor, due to
the presence of Hydrogen Sulfide. Although this is a Nitrogen balance gas,
the flammable components may be in concentration up to their LEL in air and
since this mixture may contain the level of Oxygen present in air, the mixture
must be viewed as flammable. This gas mixture can cause significant, adverse
health effects at relatively low concentrations, due to the presence of
Hydrogen Sulfide. Overexposure can cause dizziness, headache, nausea,
respiratory arrest, coma, collapse or unconsciousness. Additionally, releases
of this gas mixture may cause adverse effects on the central nervous system
and/or produce oxygen-deficient atmospheres. Individuals in such atmospheres
may be asphyxiated. Severe inhalation exposures may be fatal, due to Carbon
Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide overexposure or asphyxiation. This gas mixture
presents a serious fire hazard if accidentally released. Releases of this gas
mixture will spread long distances; ignition or flash-back from a distance are
possible. Flame or high temperature impinging on a localized area of the
cylinder can cause cylinder to rupture violently or explosively. Provide
adequate fire protection during emergency response.
