reactors, pumps, compressors and connecting piping and tubing, designed to
contain, distribute or transport cryogenics.

statistically significant evidence that acute or chronic health effects are capable of
occurring in exposed persons. The term "health hazard" includes chemicals that are
toxic, highly toxic and corrosive.
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS - ANSWER: Materials that, if mixed or combined, could
explode, generate heat, gases or other byproducts, or react in a way hazardous to
life or property.
LIQUID - ANSWER: A material having a melting point that is equal to or less than 68°F
and a boiling point that is greater than 68°F at 14.7 psia. When not otherwise
identified, the term "liquid" includes both flammable and combustible liquids.

pressure, are partially liquid at a temperature of 68F.
LOW-PRESSURE CONTAINER - ANSWER: A storage container designed to withstand
an internal pressure greater than 0.5 pounds per square inch gauge but not greater
than 15 psig.
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET (MSDS) - ANSWER: A document prepared in
accordance with the regulations of the United States Department of Labor, as set
, forth in 29 CFR Part 1910.1200 or a federally approved state OSHA plan which sets
forth information concerning a hazardous material. It contains health and physical
hazards of the material used, procedures that should be followed in case of an
emergency and safety work practices. MSDS does not show the cost of the cryogenic
fluids. (See Appendix at the end of the study materials).
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE QUANTITY PER CONTROL AREA - ANSWER: The maximum
amount of a hazardous material allowed to be stored or used within a control area
inside a building or structure or an outdoor control area.
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE WORKING PRESSURE - ANSWER: The maximum pressure
permissible at the top of a container in its operating position for a designated
temperature, as established by the container manufacturer.
NESTING - ANSWER: A method of securing flat-bottomed cryogenic containers
upright in a tight mass using a contiguous three-point contact system whereby all
containers within a group have a minimum of 3 points of contact with other
containers, walls or bracing
NORMAL TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE - ANSWER: A temperature of 70°F and a
pressure of 1 atmosphere
OUTDOOR CONTROL AREA. - ANSWER: An outdoor area that contains hazardous
materials in amounts Nesting of Portable Containers THIS STUDY MATERIAL IS
PROVIDED FREE FOR THE PUBLIC 14 not exceeding the maximum allowable
quantities. (as set forth in the NYC Fire Code)

other materials
PERSONAL SUPERVISION - ANSWER: Supervision by the holder of any FDNY
certificate who is required to be personally present on the premises, or other
proximate location acceptable to the FDNY, while performing the duties for which
the certificate is required.
