Advice for firefighters

Protective actions during Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours. Evacuate area. Cool containers exposed to heat with
firefighting water spray and remove them from the fire area if it can be done without risk. Cool containers
exposed to flames with water until well after the fire is out. If a leak or spill has not ignited, use
water spray to disperse vapours and protect men stopping the leak. Control run-off water by
containing and keeping it out of sewers and watercourses. If risk of water pollution occurs,
notify appropriate authorities.

Special protective equipment Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective
for firefighters clothing. Firefighter's clothing conforming to Australia/New Zealand Standards AS/NZS 4967
(for clothing) AS/NZS 1801 (for helmets), AS/NZS 4821 (for protective boots), AS/NZS 1801
(for protective gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.
