compliant placards to identify hazardous materials for the roadway, railway,
waterway and air. Shows type of hazard and degree of harm.
What do the 4 colors on the diamond signs represent? - ANSWERBlue: Health hazard
Red: Flammability
Yellow: Reactivity
White: Special Hazard : Ex: Oxidizer
What is the triggering amount for a diamond sign? - ANSWERThe amount required
for a fire code permit
Atmospheric Tank - ANSWERA tank designed to operate at atmospheric pressures to
1.0 psi
OXYGEN COLOR? - ANSWERgreen
MEDICAL AIR COLOR? - ANSWERyellow
Nitrogen color? - ANSWERblack
, Nitrous oxide color? - ANSWERblue
Helium Color? - ANSWERBrown
Carbon dioxide color? - ANSWERGrey
Heliox - ANSWERBrown and green
Emergency shutoff valvesshall be identified by - ANSWERA durable sign clearly visible
near the valve
ABSOLUTE ZERO - ANSWERTemperature at which all molecular motion, and
consequently all life, ceases according to Einstein and the kinetic molecular theory.
Absolute zero has never been reached, but it has been approached by the
temperatures of some cryogenic gases
ATMOSPHERIC TANK - ANSWERA storage tank designed to operate at pressures from
atmospheric through 1.0 pound per square inch gauge measured at the top of the
tank.
AREA ALARM SYSTEM - ANSWERA warning system within an area of use that
provides continuous visible and audible surveillance of Level 1 and Level 2 medical
gas systems.
BULK NITROUS OXIDE SYSTEM - ANSWERAn assembly of equipment as described in
the definition of bulk oxygen system that has a storage capacity of more than 3200 lb
[approximately 28,000 ft3 (at normal temperature and pressure)] of nitrous oxide.
BULK OXYGEN SYSTEM - ANSWERAn assembly of equipment such as oxygen storage
containers, pressure regulators, pressure relief devices, vaporizers, manifolds, and
interconnecting piping that has a storage capacity of more than 20,000 ft3 of oxygen
(at normal temperature and pressure) including unconnected reserves on hand at
the site.
COMPRESSED GAS - ANSWERA material, or mixture of materials that is a gas at 68F
or less at 14.7 psia of pressure; and has a boiling point of 68oF or less at 14.7 psia
that is either liquefied, nonliquefied or in solution at that temperature and pressure,
except that gases which have no other health- or physical-hazard properties are not
considered to be compressed until the pressure in the packaging exceeds 41 psia at
68F.
Nonliquefied compressed gases - ANSWERGases, other than those in solution, that
are in a packaging under the charged pressure and are entirely gaseous at a
temperature of 68F.
