18、HS-,-,-ARI GUIDELINE K-2004_ 2 Section 4. Containers 4.1 Cylinders for Recovered Non-Flammable Fluorocarbon Refrigerants as referenced in Appendix C. 4.1.1 Federal Law requires that cylinders comply with United States Department of Transportation (DOT) packaging requirements, see Title 49 CFR. NOTE:

19、 Federal law forbids transportation of Specification 39 non-reusable/non-refillable cylinders, if refilled. Penalty for violating this requirement is up to $500,000 fine and five years imprisonment Title 49 U.S.C. (United States Code) Sec. 5124. Non-refillable cylinders meeting DOT Specification 39

20、should not be refilled or reused for any reason due to risk of serious personal injury. 4.1.2 Valve outlet connections should comply with Compressed Gas Association Publication V-1. 4.1.3 Pressure relief devices should comply with Compressed Gas Association Publication S-1.1. 4.1.4 Valves used for v

21、apor and/or liquid withdrawal should be clearly identified and marked. 4.2 Ton Tanks for Recovered Non-Flammable Fluorocarbon Refrigerants as referenced in Appendix C. 4.2.1 Federal Law requires that ton tanks comply with United States Department of Transportation (DOT) specification 106A500X or 110

22、A500W as detailed in Title 49 CFR, Section 179.300. 4.2.2 Valve outlet connections should comply with Compressed Gas Association Publication V-1. 4.2.3 Federal Law requires that pressure relief devices comply with Title 49 CFR. 4.3 Containers for Recovered Non-Flammable Fluorocarbon Refrigerants R-1

23、1, R-113 and R-123. 4.3.1 DOT Specifications require that steel drums comply with UN Specification 1A1, as per 49 CFR, Section 178.504. 4.3.2 Containers that originally contained new refrigerant R-11, R-113 or R-123 (excluding those originally used for cleaning agents) may be used, provided the foll

24、owing conditions are met: 4.3.2.1 The drums should be inspected internally and externally and found to be clean and free of dents, bulges, holes, cracks, rust, pits, creases or other structural weaknesses. 4.3.2.2 Closure devices, including gaskets, should be in such condition that they comply, in a

25、ll respects, with the original requirements for the drum. 4.3.2.3 Drums that originally contained refrigerant R-11, R-113 or R-123 should be made to comply with Section 6.6.3. Previous labels and markings should be removed and be replaced with new labels and markings per Section 6.4. Section 5. Resp

26、onsibility of Owner This section applies only to cylinders and ton tanks, not drums, because drums are not compressed gas containers. See Title 49 CFR Section 171.8. 5.1 Cylinder Filling. Only the owner may fill his/her containers or grant permission for some other party to fill them. 5.1.1 Responsi

27、bility to assure that the service pressure rating of the cylinder or ton tank is appropriate for the material being recovered rests with the filler. Different refrigerants require different minimum service pressures, as per Appendix C. Copyright Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute Provided

28、by IHS under license with ARINot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-ARI GUIDELINE K-2004 35.2 Cylinder/Ton Tank Retesting. Federal Law requires that cylinders and ton tanks used to recover refrigerant must be hydrostatically tested a minimum of once every

29、five years in accordance with Title 49 CFR Section 180.209. Testing by visual inspection alone is not permitted. Responsibility to assure the cylinder or ton tank is within the test date rests with the filler even if the filler is not the owner of the container. Per 49 CFR, Section 180.205, no cylin

30、der is permitted to be filled with a hazardous material and offered for transportation in commerce unless that cylinder has been successfully requalified and marked in accordance with DOT requirements. Section 6. Labels and Markings 6.1 DOT Requirements. Specific container labeling and marking requi

31、rements apply for all DOT-regulated hazardous materials. Instructions as noted in 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 apply to non-flammable fluorocarbon recovered refrigerants. NOTE: R-11 in drum quantities is not a DOT-regulated hazardous material. When in bulk packaging of 5,000 lbs. or more, it is subject to DOT re

32、gulation as a hazardous substance. R-113 and R-123, in any quantity, are not DOT regulated hazardous materials. 6.1.1 Labeling. Federal law requires that each cylinder display a DOT diamond (square-on-point) “non-flammable gas“ label. The 4“ x 4“ green diamond shaped label may be printed on a tag an

33、d securely attached to the cylinders valve protection cap prior to shipment. Ton tanks require two DOT non-flammable gas labels, one on each end. 6.1.2 Marking. Federal Law requires that each container of a regulated material be marked with a DOT proper shipping name and an appropriate UN identifica

34、tion number as specified in DOT Title 49 CFR, Section 172.101. Consignees or consignors name and address is required to be shown on each container. Refer to Title 49 CFR for details of marking requirements. 6.2 EPA Labeling Requirements. 6.2.1 Each cylinder, ton tank, or drum containing a recovered

35、refrigerant designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as a Class I (CFC) or Class II (HCFC) substance in the Clean Air Act is required to display a warning statement indicating that the product(s) inside the cylinder or drum harms the earths ozone layer. The warning statement is as foll

36、ows: WARNING: Contains (insert name of substance) which harms public health and environment by destroying ozone in the upper atmosphere. 6.2.2 The chemical name of the substance may be abbreviated. For example, R-12 may be substituted for dichlorodifluoromethane. 6.3 Fill Weight. 6.3.1 The maximum a

37、llowable gross weight should be marked on each cylinder and ton tank. Maximum allowable gross weight should be determined as follows: Maximum allowable gross cylinder weight = 0.8 x WC x SG + TW where: WC = Water capacity of the recovery cylinder, lb kg SG = Specific gravity of the refrigerant recov

38、ered at 77 F 25 C TW = Tare weight of the recovery cylinder, lb kg 6.4 Product Labeling and Marking.

41、 end chime of ton tanks. 6.4.3 Printing on labels should be clear and legible. 6.5 User Information. Each container should be labeled with the fillers name, address and date filled. 6.6 Color. Following are examples of coloring schemes for various recovery containers. Depending upon the provider of

42、the recovery container, the actual shading of the color may vary. However, the use of the color yellow as specified below will identify the container as a recovery vessel. 6.6.1 Cylinders with non-removable collars: The body should be gray. The collar should be yellow. 6.6.2 Cylinders with removable

43、 caps: The body should be gray. The shoulder and the cap should be yellow. 6.6.3 Drums: The drum should be gray. The top head should be yellow. 6.6.4 Ton Tanks: The body should be gray. The ends and chimes should be yellow. Section 7. Filling Procedures IMPORTANT: DO NOT MIX REFRIGERANTS WHEN FILLIN

44、G CONTAINERS. 7.1 Cylinders and Ton Tanks. 7.1.1 Per DOT requirements, do not fill if the present date is more than five years past the test date on the container. The test date will be stamped on the shoulder or collar of cylinders and on the valve end chime of ton tanks and appear as follows: Copy

46、1.2 Cylinders and ton tanks should be continuously weighed during filling to ensure user safety. “MAXIMUM GROSS WEIGHT“ is indicated on the side of the cylinder or ton tank and should never be exceeded. 7.1.3 Cylinders and ton tanks should be checked for leakage prior to shipment. Federal Law requir

47、es that leaking cylinders and ton tanks not be shipped and be immediately evacuated into acceptable cylinders or ton tanks. 7.2 Drums. 7.2.1 Recovered refrigerant R-11, R-113, or R-123 should be placed into a new drum or a drum that previously contained new refrigerant R-11, R-113, or R-123, respect

48、ively. 7.2.2 Drums should be filled to allow a vapor space equal to at least 10% of the drum height between the top of the liquid and the bottom of the drum top. 7.2.3 Drums should be sealed by wrench-tightening the closure devices until the gaskets are firmly seated. 7.2.4 Drums should be checked for leakage prior to shipment. Federal law requires that leaking drums not be shipped and be immediately transferred into acceptable containers. Section 8. Transportation 8.1 Local Regulations.
