REFRIGERANT DATA SAFETY DATA: R134a/R513A
Conditions to avoid Do not use in the presence of flames, burning surfaces and excess humidity.
Hazardous reactions
May react with sodium, potassium, barium and other alkaline metals.
Incompatible substances: magnesium and alloys with magnesium concentrations > 2%.
Hazardous decomposition
products
Halogen acids produced by thermal decomposition and hydrolysis.
General precautions
Do not inhale concentrated vapours. Their concentration in the atmosphere should not exceed the
minimum preset values and should be maintained below the professional threshold. Being more weighty
than the air, the vapour concentrates on the bottom, in narrow areas. Therefore, the exhaust system must
work at low level.
Respiratory system protection
If you are in doubt about the concentration in the atmosphere, it is recommended to wear a respirator
approved by an accident-prevention
Authority, of the independent or oxygen type.
Storage
Cylinders must be stored in a dry and fresh place, free from any fire hazard, far from direct sunlight or
other sources of heat, radiators etc.
Keep a temperature below 45 °C.
Protective clothing Wear overalls, protective gloves and goggles or a mask.
Accidental release measures
It is important to wear protective clothing and a respirator.
Stop the source of the leak, if you can do this without danger. Negligible leaks can be left evaporating
under the sun, providing that the room is well ventilated.
Considerable leaks: ventilate the room. Reduce the leak with sand, earth or other absorbing substances.
Make sure that the liquid does is not channelled into gutters, sewers or pits where the vapours are likely
to create a stuffy atmosphere.
Disposal
The best method is recovery and recycling. If this method is not practicable, dispose according to an
approved procedure, that shall ensure the absorption and neutralization of acids and toxic agents.
Fire fighting information Not flammable in the atmosphere.
Cylinders The cylinders, if exposed to fire, shall be cooled by water jets; otherwise, if heated, they may explode.
Protective fire fighting equipment In case of fire, wear an independent respirator and protective clothing.
