This mater ial is a gas under normal atmospheric conditions and ingestion
is unlike ly. Ingestion of liquid amm onia may result in severe irritation or
ulcerat ion of the mout h, throat and digest ive tract which may be
displayed by nausea, vomit ing, diarr h ea and, in severe cases, collapse,
shock and death.
I rrit at io n to the mucous membranes of t he nose, throat and lungs is
noticeable at 100 ppm. Concentrations above 400 ppm will cause throat
irrit at ion and may destroy mucous su rfaces upon prolonged contact.
Hig h concentrations can cause pulm onar y edema. Breathing air cont
aining concentrations greater than 5,000 ppm may cause sudden death
from spasm or inf lam m at ion of the lary nx.
Liqu id Ammonia produces severe sk in burn s on contact. Ammonia gas
may cause skin irrit at ion, especially if skin is moist. The liquid can cause
skin damage resulting from combined freezing and corrosive action on the
skin. Atm ospheric conce nt rat ions above 30,000 ppm will burn and blister
skin after a few seconds of exposure.
Exposure to high gas concent rations may cause temporary blindness and
severe eye damage. Direct contact of the eyes with liquid ammonia will
produce serio us eye burn s.

Fire Fighting
Procedures
Use Water Spray or Water Fog, Carbon Dioxide, Polar or Alcohol Foam,
Dry Chemical. Halon may decompose into toxic materials. Carbon dioxide
can displace oxygen. Use caution when applying halon or carbon dioxide in
confined spaces.
Gas may ignite at vapor concentrations between 16% and 25% in air.
However, ammonia-air mixtures are difficult to ignite and burn with little
vigor. In the absence of oxygen enrichment, the risk of initiating an
accidental fire or explosion is low. Do not allow ammonia vapors to
accumulate in confined areas where ignit ion may occur. Intense heating
particularly in contact with hot metallic surfaces may cause
decomposition of am m onia generating hydrogen, a flammable gas.
Stop flow of gas. Use water fog to keep fire-exposed containers cool and to
protect personnel effecting the shut-off. Wear self-contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) and encapsulating chemical protective clothing.
Approach fire upwind and evacuate area downwind. Em ergency
responders in the danger area shou ld wear bunker gear and self-
contained breathing apparatus for fires beyond the incipient stage
(29CFR 1910.156). In addition, wear other appropriate protective
equipment as conditions warrant (See Section VIII). Isolate damage area,
keep unauthorized personnel out. Stop spill/release if it can be done with
minimal risk. If this cannot be done, allow fire to burn. Move undamaged
containers from danger area if it can be done with minimal risk. Stay away
from ends of container. Water spray may be useful in minimizing or
dispersing vapors. Cool equipment exposed to fire with water, if it can be
done with minimal risk.
Dry Chemical or carbon dioxide are recommended extinguishing media.
Stop flow of gas before extinguishing fire. Use water spray to keep fire
exposed containers cool. Extinguish fire using agent suitable for
surrounding fire.
Combustible. Wear goggles, self-contained breathing appara tus, and
rubber over clothing (including gloves). Stop flow of gas, or liquid if
possible. Let fire burn. If material involved in fire: Cool all affected containers with flooding
quantities of water. Apply water from as far distance as possible. Use water
spray to knock-down vapors. Solid streams of water may spread fire. Don
not use water on material itself. Do not apply water to point of leak in tank
car or container.

Methods of
Containment
And Clean-Up
Note t hat although ammonia gas is light er than air, sudden release may
generate an aerosol of liquefied ammonia which may cling to the ground
for long distances. May ign it e in th e presence of open flames and
sparks.
Narrow lower to upper combustion range (16-25%) makes ignition
difficult. Keep all sources of ignition away from spill/release. Do not apply
water onto leaking tank. Stop the flow of gas or liquid. Use water to
protect personnel effecting the shut -off . Approach from upwind.
Evacuate the area immediately. Eliminate all open flames in vicinity of
indoor spills or released vapor. Water fog can be used to cleanse
atmosphere of ammonia vapor.
Downwind areas can be protected by water fog nozzles positioned
downwind.
Do not enter a visible cloud of ammonia. Isolate and evacuate the leak
or spill area immediately for at least 150 feet in all directions. For larger
spills, isolate at least 300 feet in all directions and then evacuate area
downwind at least 0.4 miles in width and at least 0.8 miles in lengt h.
Keep area isolated until gas has dispersed.
Dike liquid spills to contain liquid.
7. Handling and Storage
Safe Handling Contents are under pressure. The use of explosion-proof equipment is
recommended and may be required (see appropriate fire codes). Do not
enter confined spaces such as tanks or pits without following proper entry
procedures such as ASTM D-4276. Protect against physical damage.

Storage
Work/ Hygienic
Practices
Ventilation
Outside shaded area or detached storage is preferred. Inside storage
should be in a cool, dry, well vent ilat ed, noncombustible location, away
from all possible sources of ign itio n.
Avoid contact with skin and avoid breathing vapors. Do not eat, drink, or
smoke in work area. Wash hands before eating, drinking, or using
restroom. Do NOT place food, coffee or other drinks in the area where
dusting or splash in g of solut ions is possible.
Local exhaust is essential. Spark-proof fans desirable with mechan ical
ventila t ion. Ducts shou ld be located at ceiling level and lead upwards to
the outs ide. Eyewash and safety shower should be available in work area.
