About this file
This safety data sheet provides information on replacement squib cartridges used as electro-pyrotechnic devices to initiate the discharge of fire suppression systems. The cartridges contain small amounts of explosive materials including cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine, diphenylamine, nitrocellulose, and potassium perchlorate. The Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation is soliciting offers for the purchase of fire suppression system discharge squibs to be used in federal facilities. The solicitation includes details on the explosive components in the cartridges, safety handling requirements, first aid measures in case of accidental exposure, fire response procedures, and disposal instructions. Regulated substances are listed and exposure limits provided. No response or award dates are included.

5. FIRE - FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable Extinguishing Media Use extinguishing agent appropriate to other materials involved. Keep containers and surroundings cool with water spray as containers may explode in the heat of a fire.
Specific hazards arising from the chemical Do not fight fires involving explosives. Product may explode. Evacuate the area and allow to burn or fight fire remotely. May release toxic fumes during a fire.
Special Protective Actions for Fire-Fighters Wear full protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus as appropriate for specific fire conditions.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures If cartridges are spilled from their shipping or storage container and are damaged, cordon off the area until the situation has been properly assessed. Wear appropriate protective clothing to shield from accidental detonation.
Environmental Precautions None
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up Recover the cartridges by hand and inspect in a shielded area before repacking. Dispose of damaged cartridges. If cartridge has ruptured: clean spill after liberally wetting down with solvent (acetone, butyl acetate or alcohol) by wiping material up with paper towel or cotton rag. Keep a fire extinguisher present.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions for safe handling Wear appropriate protective clothing. Work with device in a shielded area, keep shunted until installed.
