Material Safety Data Sheet

Section 5: First Aid Measures
Not applicable to intact lamps during normal use and operation.
Section 6: Fire Fighting Measures
Not applicable to an intact lamp. Under extreme heat the outer glass (or plastic)
envelope may melt or crack, No special precautions necessary for firefighters.
Section 7: Accidental Release Measures
Not applicable to an intact lamp.
Breakage of the lamp may result in exposure to electrical shock hazards if the
lamp is still installed in a fixture.
No adverse health effects are expected from occasional exposure to broken lamps, but
as a matter of good practice, prolonged exposure should be avoided through the use of
adequate ventilation during the disposal of large quantities of lamps.
These lamps become warm while operating, however they do not pose a burn hazard. If
the outer bulb breaks, the inner discharge capsule may continue to operate. Disconnect,
or turn off, power to the lamp fixture and allow the lamp to cool down sufficiently before
attempting to remove it from the fixture. Proper safety precautions should be taken
when handling any broken lamp components such as wearing gloves, safety glasses,
masks or any other applicable PPE. Emergency and First Aid Procedures: Apply normal
first aid for lacerations if such should occur when handling broken lamps.
