15、To ensure safe handling, loading, unloading, storing,and transporting of material, personnel shall be trained in theCGA publications and Title 49 CFR regulations as listed in 2.2and 2.3, respectively.5.2 Handling:5.2.1 Handling shall be in accordance with CGA P-1, SafeHandling of Compressed Gases in

16、 Containers, and as specifiedby the manufacturer.5.2.1.1 Personnel who handle or store, or both, cylinders ofHFC-125 shall be trained properly to recognize and identify thecharacteristics of the product and the proper methods of safelyhandling full, partly full, and empty cylinders.5.2.2 All HFC-125

17、 transfers between storage containers andrecycling processes shall be performed by personnel trained inhandling procedures.5.2.2.1 HFC-125 recycling and transfer processes shall be inconjunction with the equipment specified by the manufacturer.5.2.3 HFC-125 handling shall be in nonsmoking, heater-fr

18、ee, ventilated areas to preclude product accumulation. Provi-sions shall be made to ensure that service areas limit HFC-125concentrations to not exceed 10 % for 1 min and 0.1 % for 8 h.5.2.4 Cylinders shall not be overfilled. The maximum per-mitted filling density shall be 59 lb/ft3(945 kg/m3). The

19、liquidportion of the liquefied gases must not completely fill thecontainers internal volume at any temperature up to andincluding 130F (54C). Filling density requirement are speci-fied in Title 49 CFR, 173.304 and Title 49 CFR, 173.305.5.2.5 Handling of materials should be done in a manner thatpreve

26、5.4.2 Cylinders should be stored in areas that will protectvessels from physical and environmental damage, and tamper-ing from unauthorized personnel.5.4.2.1 Facilities should be in constructed and oriented sothat safety requirements are fulfilled for storage of pressurizedcylinders.5.4.3 Storage cy

27、linders shall be fitted with pressure releasemechanisms to limit vessel pressure to not more than theminimum required test pressure of the cylinder. Safety reliefvalves should be set not less than 75 %, nor more than 100 %of the minimum required test pressure of the cylinder. Safetyvalves shall be i

28、n contact with the vapor space of the cylinder.5.4.3.1 Periodic hydrostatic testing and re-inspection ofcylinders used for HFC-125 shall comply with Title 49 CFR,Part 180.5.4.4 Containers shall be clearly marked and labeled toidentify whether the HFC-125 contained conforms to Specifi-cation D6231.5.

29、4.5 Insulation shall be placed on pallets or shoring andprovisions should be made to prevent excessive shock orthermal fluctuations to cylinders.5.4.6 Cylinders shall be stored in a manner that will preventcontamination from external sources.5.4.6.1 If HFC-125 meeting the standards of Practice D6268

30、is stored in the same area as material not meeting the standards,storage shall be segregated or clearly identifiable as not beingsimilar.6. Inspection6.1 HFC-125 that is reclaimed using HFC-125manufacturer-approved reclamation systems may be releasedfor reissue, provided test examination to validate

31、 the materialto specification is fulfilled.6.1.1 Reclaimed HFC-125 that cannot be proven to complywith Specification D6231 shall not be reissued. The materialwill be processed by environmentally safe methods untilconformance to the product standard is achieved.7. Keywords7.1 C2HF5; compressed gas; c
