i believe I know the answer to this but I’d like to hear some expert opinions.
Tomorrow I’ll have my usual flammable and non flammable placards as I’m a cylinder hauler. I will also be displaying an inhalation hazard placard as I will he hauling chlorine which has a RQ of 10 lbs and requires a placard.
I will finally have over 1,001 lbs of acid in 55 gallon drums. I know this requires a fourth placard displaying corrosive.
At which point do these labels require the UN number. In particular the inhalation hazard and corrosive material?

alds Thanks this.

I believe that a larger quantity of these gases IE in a tanker would require a UN number as its in bulk. This mostly doesn’t apply to my daily functions but I’d like to know out of curiosity and to get a better understanding.
The JJ Keller books and FMSCA is basically like interpreting Chinese -

Corrosive, that amount doesn't require the UN 1830 corrosive.

Shipments requiring display of the number due to bulk packaging are not to be counted toward your aggregate total for placard requirements.Air Cooled and gentleroger Thank this. -
FWIW Reportable quantities have nothing to do with placard requirements.

A shipper recently mentioned 8820 pounds. I think it may compare to 4000kg. -
When they started making non tank vehicles display the 4 digit UN/NA number is was any HM over 8000# loaded from the same shipper needed to be identified by the number on the appropriate hazard class placard.
kemosabi49 Thanks this.
