Safety

Engine Safe - CentronTM products have no metal components, alcohol or harsh chemicals that can cause damage to combustion engines, harm storage tanks or invalidate manufacturers’ engine warranties. In fact, their proven cleansing properties naturally lead one to the opposite conclusion—that engines treated with CentronTM products will actually last longer.

Storage Tank Safe - CentronTM fuel savers have been declared safe by tank manufacturers, hose manufacturers, and their Veeder-Root supplier. CentronTM fuel savers are cold blends of environmentally safe, readily available and biodegradable chemicals. No expensive refinery or storage tank modifications are necessary to safely use these products. Letters on file from four major storage tank manufacturers confirm that CentronTM will not harm storage tanks.

EPA Safe - CentronTM fuel savers are EPA-registered (No. 1765-0001 and 1765-0002) and environmentally safe. As with any petroleum distillate, CentronTM fuel savers may prove harmful or fatal if swallowed, and they are not to be used in conjunction with MTBE. (see attached EPA registration)

SECTION VIII

SAFE HANDLING AND USE INFORMATION

RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Use an appropriate NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator following manufacturer's recommendations. VENTILATION: General (mechanical) room ventilation to maintain vapor levels below TLV is expected to be satisfactory. Special, local ventilation is needed at points where vapors or mists are expected to escape to the workplace air.

PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Consult the glove manufacturer for the most appropriate glove Material.
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical safety goggles.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Eye bath and safety shower. Wear protective
clothing to prevent repeated or prolonged contact.

SECTION IX

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING: WARNING! Causes eye and skin irritation. Combustible. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid breathing vapor or mist. Use with adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat and flame. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container closed. Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with skin. Store in cool, dry, ventilated area. Equipment and containers should be bonded and grounded when transferring or using material. Empty containers should not be exposed to fire, sparks, or flame, as residual vapors may be explosive. Since emptied packages retain product residue, follow label warnings even after package is emptied.

OTHER PRECAUTIONS: This product has a low solubility in water and will float on the surface. Large spills should not be allowed to drain into natural waterways. Store materials wetted with this product (e.g. rags, paper, insulation, clay, etc.) in approved safety container designed for that purpose. Dispose of as quickly as possible. Contact lenses should not be worn.
