SUPER SHOCK – 7 kg

Safety information

• Signal word: DANGER
• Classification: Oxidizing solids — Category 2. Acute toxicity (oral) — Category 4. Skin corrosion — Category 1B. Serious eye damage — Category 1. Specific target organ toxicity, single exposure — Category 3 (respiratory system). Acute and chronic aquatic toxicity — Category 1.
• H272 May intensify fire; oxidizer.
• H302 Harmful if swallowed.
• H314 Causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
• H318 Causes serious eye damage.
• H335 May cause respiratory irritation.
• H410 Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.
• Contact with acids liberates toxic gas.

Handling

• Always add the product to a large quantity of water to dissolve it fully. Never pour water into the product.
• Do not mix this product with any other chemical, including any other pool chemical of any kind, such as other disinfection or shock products.
• Use only a clean, dry scoop — metal or plastic — each time product is taken from the container.
• Do not use with stabilized chlorine or bromine tablet chemical feeders, and do not add it to any dispensing device holding remnants of another product.
• Strong oxidizer — keep away from combustible material. Contact with other material may cause fire.
• Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe dust. Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing.
• Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking or using tobacco.
• Empty containers retain residue and can be hazardous. Do not reuse the container — flush it thoroughly with water, then place it in trash collection.

Personal protective equipment

• Hands: chemical-resistant impervious gloves — nitrile, neoprene or butyl rubber
• Eyes: chemical splash goggles and a face shield
• Body: suitable protective clothing
• Feet: appropriate protective footwear
• Ventilation: good general ventilation, with local exhaust where needed

Storage

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Ventilate enclosed areas. Keep only in the original container and keep the container closed. Separate from acids, alkalis, reducing agents and combustibles. This is an NFPA Class 3 oxidizer, which can cause a severe increase in fire intensity. If the product becomes contaminated or begins to decompose, do not reseal the container — if possible, isolate it in open air or a well-ventilated area.

Incompatible materials

Highly reactive or incompatible with moisture, combustible materials, organic materials, metals, acids, alkalis, oxidizing and reducing materials, ammonia, petroleum products, paint products, wood and paper, and other pool chemicals. Acid or ammonia contamination will release toxic gases. Heating may cause fire or explosion; excessive heat causes decomposition at roughly 170–180 °C, releasing oxygen and chlorine gas.
