🔍 Key Concepts

• Hazard labels for acetylene cylinders under hazardous materials regulations (is acetylene a flammable gas, a non‑flammable gas, or both?) • Proper methods of protecting compressed gas cylinders from heat and sunlight • Regulatory definitions of “on deck” vs. “under deck” stowage and how spaces like an upper deck are classified

💭 Think About

• Think about what color and wording are used on standard hazard labels for flammable gases like acetylene. Would they ever also carry the label color used for non‑flammable compressed gases? • If you place a tarp directly over gas cylinders in the sun, what happens to the temperature under the tarp? Does that increase or decrease the risk to the cylinders? • For segregation from corrosives and for the meaning of “on deck,” which of the options most closely matches what is written in cargo stowage/separation tables and definitions in the regulations?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check in the hazmat tables how acetylene is classified (e.g., Class/Division) and what single primary hazard label it must carry. • Verify in the regulations whether covering cylinders with a tarp is an approved/ recommended method for protection from radiant heat. • Confirm from the cargo stowage rules how an upper deck–deck space is defined: is it treated as ‘on deck’ or ‘under deck’ for stowage requirements of gases like acetylene?
