SDS code: 011876-02 Product name: QUAKERCLEAN 68 RAH Page 1 of 8
Inhalation: May cause irritation of respiratory tract. A component may cause central nervous
system depression characterized by the following progressive steps: headache,
dizziness, nausea, staggering gait, confusion and unconsciousness. Intentional
misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or
fatal.
Ingestion: Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Risk of
product entering the lungs on vomiting after ingestion.
Eye contact: Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15
minutes.
Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash contaminated clothing before re-
use.. Rinse immediately with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes.
Inhalation: Move to fresh air in case of accidental inhalation of vapors. If not breathing, give
artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Consult a physician.
Note to physician: This product contains petroleum ditillates Aspiration may cause pulmonary oedema
and pneumonitis
5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point (°C): 79 Flash Point (°F): 174.2 Flash Point Method: COC
Flammable limits in air - lower (%): Not determined Flammable limits in air - upper (%): Not determined
Unusual hazards: Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of
ignition Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along
floors Containers exposed to intense heat from fires should
be cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure buildup
which could result in container rupture
Special protective equipment for fire-fighters: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent)
and full protective gear.

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions: Ensure adequate ventilation. Use personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with
skin, eyes and clothing. Do not breathe vapour/dust. Wash thoroughly after handling
Environmental precautions: Do not flush into surface water or sanitary sewer system. Prevent further leakage or
spillage if safe to do so.
Methods for cleaning up: Soak up with inert absorbent material (e.g. sand, silica gel, acid binder, universal
binder, sawdust). Sweep up and shovel into suitable containers for disposal.
Handling
Safe handling advice: Do not breathe vapors or spray mist. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable
respiratory equipment. Wear personal protective equipment. Avoid contact with skin
Storage
Technical measures/storage Keep away from open flames, hot surfaces and sources of ignition. Store at room
conditions: temperature in the original container.
Engineering measures: Provide adequate ventilation. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable
respiratory equipment.
Respiratory protection: If engineering controls do not maintain airborne concentrations to a level which is
adequate to protect worker health, a NIOSH-certified respirator with organic
vapor/P100 filter should be worn.
