Key Properties

• Colourless, tasteless, and odourless
• Inert to all materials at all temperatures and pressures
• Heavier than air, argon collects in low‑lying areas, ducts, and drains
• Asphyxiant (does not support life)
• Lower thermal conductivity compared to most other gases

Safety and Protection

Respiratory Protection:

• When required by risk assessment, Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) may be used.
• Selection of the Respiratory Protective Device (RPD) must be based on exposure levels, product hazards, and safe working limits.
• Use self‑contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or positive pressure airline with mask in oxygen‑deficient atmospheres.

Guideline Reference: EN 137 – Respiratory protective devices, self‑contained open‑circuit compressed air breathing apparatus with full face mask (requirements, testing, marking).

Thermal Hazards: No precautionary measures are necessary.

Hygiene Measures: Follow good industrial hygiene and safety procedures. Do not eat, drink, or smoke when handling the product.
