Blue = health · Red = flammability · Yellow = reactivity.
Hazard identification (GHS)
- Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated (H280).
- Supports combustion (contains oxygen); high-pressure jet can injure skin and eyes.
First-aid measures
Compressed air is normal breathing composition; hazards arise from pressure. For high-pressure injection injuries or eye impact, seek medical attention immediately.
Handling & storage
- Never use compressed air to clean skin or clothing; a high-pressure jet can cause serious injury.
- Store cylinders upright, capped, below 52 °C; keep valves clean and open slowly.
- Because air contains oxygen, keep oil and grease off high-pressure fittings.
Physical & chemical properties
