2 Conductivity Calibration Standard 1 Section 3. Hazards Identification Page Number: 2 Potential Acute Health Effects Potential Chronic Health Effects Slightly hazardous in case of skin contact (irritant), of eye contact (irritant), of ingestion, of inhalation. Non-corrosive for skin. Non-permeator by skin. CARCINOGENIC EFFECTS: MUTAGENIC EFFECTS: Mutagenic for mammalian somatic cells. Mutagenic for bacteria and/or yeast. (for solution with sodium chloride) TERATOGENIC EFFECTS: DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Classified Reproductive system/toxin/female [POSSIBLE]. (for solution with Sodium Chloride) The substance may be toxic to blood, cardiovascular system. Repeated or prolonged exposure to the substance can produce target organs damage. Section 4. First Aid Measures Eye Contact Skin Contact Serious Skin Contact Check for and remove any contact lenses. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Cold water may be used. Get medical attention if irritation occurs. Wash with soap and water. Cover the irritated skin with an emollient. Get medical attention if irritation develops. Cold water may be used. Inhalation Serious Inhalation If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get medical attention. Ingestion Serious Ingestion Do NOT induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or waistband. Get medical attention if symptoms appear. Section 5. Fire and Explosion Data Flammability of the Product Auto-Ignition Temperature Flash Points Flammable Limits Products of Combustion Fire Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Non-flammable. Explosion Hazards in Presence of Various Substances Risks of explosion of the product in presence of mechanical impact: Risks of explosion of the product in presence of static discharge: Fire Fighting Media and Instructions Fire Hazards Explosion Hazards May result in explosion with potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid. (Potassium chloride) Electrolysis of sodium chloride in presence of nitrogenous compounds to produce chlorine may lead to formation of explosive nitrogen trichloride. Potentially explosive reaction with dichloromaleic anhydride + urea. (Sodium Chloride)

3 Conductivity Calibration Standard 1 Section 6. Accidental Release Measures Small Spill Large Spill Section 7. Handling and Storage Page Number: 3 Dilute with water and mop up, or absorb with an inert dry material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and dispose of according to local and regional authority requirements. Absorb with an inert material and put the spilled material in an appropriate waste disposal. Finish cleaning by spreading water on the contaminated surface and allow to evacuate through the sanitary system. Precautions Storage Do not ingest. Do not breathe gas/fumes/ vapor/spray. If ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the container or the label. Keep container tightly closed. Keep container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Do not store above 23 C (73.4 F). Section 8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Engineering Controls Personal Protection Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their respective threshold limit value. Safety glasses. Lab coat. Personal Protection in Case of a Large Spill Exposure Limits Splash goggles. Full suit. Boots. Gloves. Suggested protective clothing might not be sufficient; consult a specialist BEFORE handling this product. Section 9. Physical and Chemical Properties Physical state and appearance Liquid.

May affect genetic material (mutagenic) (Sodium Chloride) Actute Potential Health Effects: Skin: May cause skin irritation Eye: May cause eye irritation. Inhalation: May cause respiratory tract irritation. Low hazard for usual industrial handling Ingestion: May affect behavior (coma, change in motor activity), metabolism, blood (change in clotting factor, electrolytic imbalance), cardiovascular, respiratory and gastrointestinal (irritation of GI tract, nausea, vomiting) systems. (Potassium chloride) Acute Potential Health Effects: Skin: May cause skin irritation. Eyes: Causes eye irritation. Ingestion: Ingestion of large quantities can irritate the stomach (as in overuse of salt tablets) with nausea and vomiting.
