4.
Safety requirements
4.1 The
chloride lime according to the level of effect on a human being belongs to
the 2nd class of hazardous substances according to GOST
12.1.007.
4.2 The
chloride lime powder and the separate chlorine produces a stimulating and
irritating effect on the respiratory tracks, the mucous membrane of eyes
and the skin.
4.3 The
permissible limit of chlorine concentration in the working zone air
according to GOST 12.1.005 shall not exceed 1 mg/m3.In the
production areas it is required to use immovable automatic or movable gas
analyzers for the determination and registration of content of chlorine.
4.4 Chlorine
lime is a noncombustible substance, but when mixed with heavy oxidation,
organic substances it can cause them to burn.
4.5 The
production areas shall be equipped with air cleaning conditioners which
shall secure the content of chlorine within the limits of permissible
concentration.
4.6. The
staff employed shall be provided with a special protected uniform and
individual devices intended to protect respiratory and vision organs.
4.7 The
production areas and the storehouses shall be provided with fire
protection devices, such as water, sand, box and carbonic acid
extinguishers.
4.8 In case
of increase in the temperature of chloride lime as a result of package
solution it is required to undertake rash measures for decentralizing it.
4.9 When
poisoned by the chlorine, it is necessary to take the sufferer away from
the infected place, provide quietness, heat and call a doctor. In case the
mucous membrane of eyes and the skin are infected with chloride lime, it
is necessary to wash them with running water, with the duration of 15 or
20 minutes.
If necessary, the sufferer shall be sent to a relevant medical center for
examination.
4.10 Vacuum
cleaning of the production area is also of vital importance. In case there
is no vacuum system installed, wet cleaning is also permitted.
5.

state the following:
-
product name, brand and sort
-
number of group quantity
-
net
weight
-
quantity of packing units in group quantities
-
conclusions of analysis or the ratification of conformity of chloride lime
quality of the requirements of the present technical specification
-
words
on the packages pungent substance and keep in dry place according to

signs of technical specifications.
5.3 For the
testing of the conformity of chloride lime quality of the requirements of
the technical specification, experimental samples shall be taken out of
each group quantity at the rate of one (1) percent of packed unites, but
not less than three (3) bags.
5.4 With the
view to testing the conformity of the provided chloride lime for the
retail trade, two (2) packages out of each bags or boxes are taken from
the experimental samples.
5.5 In the
event that unsatisfactory results occur in respect of at least one
coefficient (index) in the course of the experiment. Repeated experiments
shall be conducted using doubled sample taken from the same group quantity
for the experiment.
The results
of the repeated experiments apply to the entire group quantity.
6.
Testing Methods
6.1 Sample
according to GOST 1692.
6.2 The
outward appearance of the chloride lime is determined intentionally.
6.3 The
massive part of active chlorine is determined according to GOST 1692.
6.4 The
coefficient of heat resistance is determined according to GOST 1692.
7.
Shipment and storage
7.1 The
chloride lime can be shipped in closed transport facilities by all means
of transportation except for air transport persuant to the shipping
procedures of dangerous items existing for the definite type of transport.

of asphalt or concrete.
The bags of
chloride lime shall be kept in piles at the height of 2.5 meter and up to
1.2 meter in width.
7.4 It is
strictly forbidden to keep any other explosive substances, dangerous items
