Hazards and health consequences

If accidentally released, rapid evaporation of the liquid can cause freezing.
In case of contact with the liquid:

- remove clothing carefully;
- rinse thoroughly with water.
Contaminated clothing and shoes should be washed before reuse.
High vapour concentrations can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness and nausea, and may lead to
unconsciousness and cardiac arrhythmia.
If inhaled move the victim to fresh air. Artificial respiration and/or oxygen may be necessary. Call a doctor immediately.

for at least 15 minutes.
The safety data sheet drawn up by the producer of the refrigerant can be obtained from the
manufacturer of the unit.
The refrigerants used in these units are classified as ASHRAE A2L and they are characterised by low
flammability (burning velocity < 10 cm/s). If refrigerant leaks out, it tends to stagnate in the bottom part
of the area where the leak has occurred.
