5.3. Advice for firefighters
Protective actions during
firefighting
Avoid breathing fire gases or vapours. Evacuate area. Keep upwind to avoid inhalation of
gases, vapours, fumes and smoke. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Cool
containers exposed to heat with water spray and remove them from the fire area if it can be
done without risk. Cool containers exposed to flames with water until well after the fire is out.
If a leak or spill has not ignited, use water spray to disperse vapours and protect men stopping
the leak. Control run-off water by containing and keeping it out of sewers and watercourses. If
risk of water pollution occurs, notify appropriate authorities.
Special protective equipment
for firefighters
Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and appropriate protective
clothing. Firefighter's clothing conforming to European standard EN469 (including helmets,
protective boots and gloves) will provide a basic level of protection for chemical incidents.
