Consult a physician. Show this safety data sheet to the doctor in attendance.
If inhaledFresh air, rest. Artificial respiration may be needed. Refer for medical attention. See Notes.
In case of skin contactWash off with soap and plenty of water. Consult a physician.
In case of eye contactRinse thoroughly with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and consult a physician.
If swallowedNever give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Rinse mouth with water. Consult a physician.
4.2 Most important symptoms/effects, acute and delayedInhalation causes headache, dizziness, weakness of limbs, confusion, nausea, unconsciousness, and finally death. 0.04% conc., 2-3 hr. or .06% conc., 1 hr.- headache and discomfort; with moderate exercise, 0.1-0.2% will produce throbbing in the head in about 1/2 hr., a tendency to stagger in about 1 1/2 hr., and confusion of the mind, headache, and nausea in about 2 hrs. 0.20-25% usually produces unconsciousness in about 1/2 hr. Inhalation of a 0.4% conc. can prove fatal in less than 1 hr. Inhalation of high concentrations can cause sudden, unexpected collapse. Contact of liquid with skin will cause frostbite. (USCG, 1999)
Excerpt from ERG Guide 168 [Carbon Monoxide (Refrigerated Liquid)]: TOXIC; Extremely Hazardous. Inhalation extremely dangerous; may be fatal. Contact with gas or liquefied gas may cause burns, severe injury and/or frostbite. Odorless, will not be detected by sense of smell. (ERG, 2016)
4.3 Indication of immediate medical attention and special treatment needed, if necessaryTreatment includes 100% oxygen and, in severe cases, hyperbaric oxygen. The half-life of carboxyhemoglobin is 6 hours at room air, 1.5 hours with 100% oxygen, and 23 minutes at three atmospheres of pressure.
5.Fire-fighting measures 5.1 Extinguishing media Suitable extinguishing mediaStop flow of gas before extinguishing fire. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Fire situation may require evacuation.
5.2 Specific hazards arising from the chemicalSpecial Hazards of Combustion Products: Asphyxiation due to carbon dioxide production may result. Behavior in Fire: Flame has very little color. Containers may explode in fire. (USCG, 1999)
Excerpt from ERG Guide 168 [Carbon Monoxide (Refrigerated Liquid)]: EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Flame may be invisible. Containers may explode when heated. Vapor explosion and poison hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Vapors from liquefied gas are initially heavier than air and spread along ground. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Runoff may create fire or explosion hazard. (ERG, 2016)
5.3 Special protective actions for fire-fightersWear self-contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary.
6.Accidental release measures 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency proceduresUse personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapours, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Evacuate personnel to safe areas. Avoid breathing dust. For personal protection see section 8.
6.2 Environmental precautionsEvacuate danger area! Consult an expert! Personal protection: self-contained breathing apparatus. Ventilation. Remove all ignition sources.
6.3 Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up1. Ventilate area of leak or release to disperse gas. 2. Stop flow of gas. If source of leak is a cylinder and the leak cannot be stopped in place, remove the leaking cylinder to a safe place in the open air and repair the leak or allow the cylinder to empty.
7.Handling and storage 7.1 Precautions for safe handlingAvoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use.Provide appropriate exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. For precautions see section 2.2.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilitiesFireproof. Cool. Keep in a well-ventilated room.Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location.
8.Exposure controls/personal protection 8.1 Control parameters Occupational Exposure limit valuesRecommended Exposure Limit: 10 Hr Time-Weighted Avg: 35 ppm (40 mg/cu m).

8.2 Appropriate engineering controlsHandle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday.
8.3 Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment (PPE) Eye/face protectionSafety glasses with side-shields conforming to EN166. Use equipment for eye protection tested and approved under appropriate government standards such as NIOSH (US) or EN 166(EU).
Skin protectionWear impervious clothing. The type of protective equipment must be selected according to the concentration and amount of the dangerous substance at the specific workplace. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Use proper glove removal technique(without touching glove's outer surface) to avoid skin contact with this product.

10.2 Chemical stabilityStable under recommended storage conditions.
10.3 Possibility of hazardous reactionsFlammable gas.The gas mixes well with air, explosive mixtures are easily formed. The gas penetrates easily through walls and ceilings.Bromine trifluoride and carbon monoxide react explosively at high temperatures or concentrations [Mellor 2 Supp. 1:166 1956]. The same is true for various oxidizers such as: chlorine dioxide, oxygen (liquid), peroxodisulfuryl difluoride. The product of the reaction between lithium and carbon monoxide, lithium carbonyl, detonates violently with water, igniting the gaseous products [Mellor 2, Supp. 2:84 1961]. Potassium and sodium metals behave similarly. Cesium oxide, iron(III) oxide, and silver oxide all react, in the presence of moisture, at ambient temperatures with carbon monoxide causing ignition, [Mellor, 1941, vol. 2, 487]. Contact of very cold liquefied gas with water may result in vigorous or violent boiling of the product and extremely rapid vaporization due to the large temperature differences involved. If the water is hot, there is the possibility that a liquid "superheat" explosion may occur. Pressures may build to dangerous levels if liquid gas contacts water in a closed container [Handling Chemicals Safely 1980].
