An LC50 value of 0.23 mg/L/4h corresponds to Category 1 in accordance with the Guidance values, but it was classified in Category 2 (respiratory system) because data were from List 2 and that does not meet Decision Criteria 1b3). Besides, there are warnings that "breathing phenyl trichlorosilane can irritate the lungs causing coughing and/or shortness of breath," and "higher exposures can cause a build-up of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema), a medical emergency, with severe shortness of breath" (HSFS (2000)).
