Handling Recommendations

Keep containers closed when not in use.
Open containers slowly to allow any excess pressure to vent.
Keep away from heat, sparks, flame, or other sources of ignition.
Protect small containers from physical damage.
Use proper electrical grounding and bonding procedures when loading, unloading, and transferring.
Use spark-resistant tools.
Electrical equipment and circuits in all storage and handling areas must conform to requirements of national electrical code (Articles 500 and 501) for hazardous location.

Storage Conditions

Recommended Blanketing	Dry Nitrogen¹
Maximum Minimum	80°F (26.7°C) 0°F (-17.8°C)
Recommended Pressure	Atmospheric - if tank is equipped with cooling system. Pressure tank required w/o cooling
Storage Location of Bulk quantities	Outside, detached tanks

¹ - Nitrogen blanketing should be used to retain quality. A white precipitate can form when product is exposed to air.
