CHLORINE BASICS 15 3.4.2 Ton Containers Most ton containers are shipped by highway. Trucks must have suitable hold-down devices to prevent the ton containers from shifting during transportation. Trucks are sometimes equipped with a crane and lifting beam to facilitate loading and unloading. See CI Pamphlet 76 (11.1). 3.5 CONTAINER MARKING/LABELING AND VEHICLE PLACARDING Containers in transportation must be marked and labeled and the vehicle placarded as required by regulations. 3.6 CONTAINER HANDLING 3.6.1 General Chlorine containers must be handled with care. During shipment and storage, container valve protective housings should be in place. Containers should not be dropped and no object should be allowed to strike them with force. Containers should be secured to prevent them from rolling. See CI Pamphlet 76 (11.1). 3.6.2 Cylinders Cylinders can be moved using a properly balanced hand truck. The hand truck should have a clamp or chain two-thirds of the way up the cylinder wall to hold the cylinder in place. If cylinders must be elevated by hoist, a specially designed cradle or carrier should be used. Slings and magnetic devices are unacceptable. Cylinders must not be lifted by the valve protective housing because the neck-ring to which the housing is attached is not designed to carry the weight of the cylinder. 3.6.3 Ton Containers Ton containers are typically moved using a monorail or crane with a lifting beam (see Drawing 122). They can be rolled on rails or roller conveyors designed for this purpose. If a forklift truck is used, the ton container must be adequately restrained to prevent it from falling off, particularly when the truck changes direction. The forklift truck must be rated to handle the gross weight of the ton container. Figure 3.5 – Lifting Beam for Handling Chlorine Ton ContainersPDF Image | Chlorine Basics 8
