Practice5.1 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 inSections 2.2 and 2.3, respectively.5.2 Handling:5.2.1 Handling shall be in accordance with CGA P-1, SafeHandli

15、ng of Compressed Gases in Containers.5.2.1.1 Personnel who handle or store, or both, cylinders ofHFC Blend B shall be trained properly to recognize andidentify the characteristics of the product and the propermethods of safely handling full, partially full, and emptycylinders.5.2.2 All HFC Blend B t

16、ransfers between storage containersand recycling processes shall be performed by personneltrained in handling procedures.5.2.2.1 HFC Blend B recycling and transfer processes shallbe in conjunction with the equipment specified by the manu-facturer.5.2.3 HFC Blend B handling shall be in nonsmoking,hea

17、ter-free, ventilated areas to preclude product accumulation.Provisions shall be made to ensure that service areas limit HFCBlend B concentrations do not exceed 75,000 ppm (7.5 %) byvolume for 1 min and 100 ppm by volume for a time weightedexposure of 8 h.5.2.4 Cylinders shall not be overfilled. The

18、liquid portion ofthe HFC Blend B must not completely fill the containersinternal volume at any temperature up to and including 130F(54C). The maximum permitted filling density for HFC BlendB shall be 58 lb/ft3(930 kg/m3). Filling density requirementsare specified in Title 49 CFR, 173.304 and Title 4

19、9 CFR,173.305.5.2.5 Handling of materials should be done in a manner thatprevents contamination or commingling of halocarbons otherthan HFC Blend B.5.2.6 Cylinders shall be free of dirt and contamination thatwould contribute to or would cause deterioration of productduring shipment or storage. Preca

20、utions should be taken toprevent the entry of oil, water, or any other foreign matter intocontainers. Unique coatings or preservatives applied prior toshipment to protect the containers are not considered contami-nation.5.3 Transportation:5.3.1 Transportation shall be as specified in accordance with

21、DOT regulations of Title 49 CFR.5.3.1.1 Shipment of materials between collectors, recyclers,and reclaimers should be within approved DOT guidelines forClass 2, Division 2.2, regulated materials. Any further provi-sions for special transportation or packaging should be agreedupon between the collecto

22、rs, recyclers, and reclaimers.5.3.1.2 The minimum design pressure requirements shall beas indicated in Title 49 CFR, Part 173.304. The pressure insidethe container at 70F (21C) shall not exceed the servicepressure for which the container is marked. The pressure insidethe container at 130F (54C) shal

23、l not exceed54 times theservice pressure for which the container is marked. Fig. 1 andFig. 2 illustrate the effect of temperature on a typical storagecylinder filled with HFC Blend B. Extinguisher filters filledwith HFC Blend B may be under additional nitrogen pressur-ization and isometric diagrams

24、for these conditions are pro-vided in Figs. 3-6.5.3.2 Transportation shall be by suitable vehicles to pre-clude cylinder damage by excessive mechanical vibration,shock, freezing, or deleterious high temperatures throughoutthe entire transport route.FIG. 1 Saturated Vapor Pressure of HFC Blend BEngli
