When transporting cylinders containing used refrigerant, DOT requires that you?
Which compounds have the highest ozone depletion potential (ODP)?
Study Notes
Refrigerant Safety Classification
- The safest designation according to the ASHRAE refrigerant safety classification standard is A-1.
- A-1 signifies a low toxicity, non-flammable refrigerant.
Transporting Refrigerant Cylinders
- DOT regulations require the attachment of DOT classification tags when transporting cylinders of used refrigerant.
- Compliance ensures safe handling and identification of refrigerants.
Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP)
- CFC's (Chlorofluorocarbons) are recognized as having the highest ozone depletion potential compared to HCFC's (Hydrochlorofluorocarbons) and HFC's (Hydrofluorocarbons).
- Understanding ODP is critical in assessing the environmental impact of refrigerants.
