SECTION 4- FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Extinguisher Media Water, CO2 or dry chemical powder Special Fire-Fighting Procedures Smoke may contain irritants to skin, eyes and respiratory track. The battery packs are constructed of many small cells.
Cells can expel hot gas and smoke if they are exposed to temperatures of greater than 130°C for more than 10 minutes.
C02 or chemical powder may extinguish flammable materials prevent restart of fire. no new release of smoke for 1 hour before assuming the battery is extinguished. Residue left after burning is primarily carbon but may contain small amounts of Hydrofluoric Acid. Use protective gloves and eye protection. Avoid inhalation of from residue surrounding battery, but battery container must be cooled to Water is a suitable material for extinguishing flames and cooling battery.
