NALCO 2593 is classified as hazardous to aquatic environments. The product should not be applied directly to water bodies, as it is toxic to fish and other aquatic organisms.
Ensure that safety showers and eyewash stations are easily accessible in the work area. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area.
Store away from incompatible materials (e.g., strong acids, strong oxidisers, or specific reactive metals).
Move the individual to fresh air; seek medical attention if respiratory irritation persists. 4. Handling and Storage
Do you need guidance on or application frequency for a particular cooling tower or boiler system?
Ensure secondary containment is in place to prevent leaks from reaching floor drains or local waterways.
Avoid extreme heat or freezing, which can cause the chemical to separate or lose efficacy. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Requirements
A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is a legally required document that provides detailed information about a chemical product's hazards, safe handling, and emergency procedures. For NALCO 2593, the SDS (historically called the MSDS) is the most critical document for workplace safety. It bridges the gap between the manufacturer's expertise and the end-user's safety protocols.
