ELEVATED TEMPERATURE SUBSTANCE
OVERVIEW
Safety markings are crucial for the transportation of substances at elevated temperatures. This guide outlines the requirements for marking vehicles and containers that transport such substances.
MARKING SPECIFICATIONS
- Placement: Marks should be placed on both sides and the rear of vehicles, and on both sides and each end for containers and tanks.
- Design: The mark is an equilateral red triangle, indicating the presence of high-temperature substances.
- Size Requirements: The standard size for each side of the triangle is 250 mm. For smaller containers or tanks (up to 3,000 liters), the size can be reduced to 100 mm.
DURABILITY AND COMPLIANCE
- The material used for the mark must be weather-resistant, ensuring visibility and durability throughout the transport process.
- Adhering to these marking guidelines is essential for safety and regulatory compliance, helping to prevent accidents and facilitate emergency responses.
IMPORTANCE
- Proper marking alerts handlers and emergency personnel to the hazards of the cargo, playing a critical role in the safe transport of high-temperature substances.
