Reactivity Data; Safety Information - Oki OF5650 Safety And Warranty Manual

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:
– Organic components decompose at 200-455°C (392-
851°F).
– Material may explosively combust when finely
suspended in air.
– Thermal decomposition of organic components may
result in release of oxides of carbon and nitrogen.
Health Hazards Data
Routes of Entry: Inhalation, Ingestion, Eyes, Skin.
Health Hazards:
1 Styrene/acrylate Copolymer
Subcutaneous implantation of polymeric styrene
powder in rats has induced tumors at the site of
implantation.
2 Carbon black
(Group 2B "Possible Carcinogen"; IARC)
Overexposure to carbon black is associated with
causing irritation, conjunctivitis, and corneal
hypoplasia of the eyes; minor irritation and eczema of
the skin; and irritation and bronchitis. Long-term
inhalation exposure may be associated with causing
lung cancer.
3 Polypropylene
(Group 3 "Not Classifiable"; IARC)
Subcutaneous implantation of polypropylene powder in
rats has induced tumors at the site of implantation.
4 Amorphous Fumed Silica
(Group 3 "Not Classifiable"; IARC)
Overexposure to amorphous silica has been associated
with causing irritation of the lungs and
pneumoconiosis. Long-term inhalation exposure may
be associated with producing tumors in laboratory
animals.

Installation Hints
• Install your fax unit in a dust-free location away from
direct sunlight.
• Do not plug your fax unit into a power source shared
by equipment which produces electrical noise (i.e., air
conditioners, etc.).
• Leave electronic adjustments to authorized service
personnel.
