On a number of occasions people have received a mild electric shock while using a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher. The gas jets from the extinguishers contain small particles of solid carbon dioxide, so a charge will collect on the horn of the extinguisher and may pass to earth via the hand of the person who is holding the horn. [Pg.293]

Fire extinguishers should be fully charged and properly placed. [Pg.199]

Accessible fully-charged fire extinguishers of the appropriate type and fire blankets must be present if a fire hazard exists. [Pg.37]

Explosivity Fine dust dispersed in air in sufficient concentrations and in the presence of an ignition source, is a potential dust explosion hazard. Minimum concentration for explosion is 0.25 oz. ft The recommended fire extinguishing media is water spray, dry chemical, alcohol foam, or carbon dioxide. Acetaminophen is capable of generating a static electrical charge. Processes involving dumping of acetaminophen into flammable liquid, inert atmosphere in the vessels, or temperatures of flammable liquid should be maintained below its flashpoint. [Pg.22]
