IMDG freight container code;

A Freight Container Or A Container Means An Article Of Transport Equipment Of Permanent Character

And Accordingly Strong Enough For Repeated Use, Specially Designed To Facilitate The Transport Of
Goods By One Or More Modes Of Transport Without Intermediate Reloading, Designed To Be Secured
And/Or Readily Handled And Having Fittings For These Purposes.

Please consider the environment before printing out these copies 4

Containers Used For The Transport Of Packaged Dangerous Goods Should
Be Of Adequate Strength To Resist The Possible Stress Imposed By The Conditions Of
Service And Should Be Adequately Maintained And Approved By The Amended Csc Convention.
(International Convention For Safe Containers 1972 - Csc - As Amended).

The Term Freight Container Includes Neither Vehicle Nor Packaging; However, A Container That Is
Carried Chassis Is Included. For Convenience, The Word Freight Is Not Repeated Throughout This
Section.

Container Packing And Certification

1. Dangerous Goods Which Require Segregation From Each Other Should Not Be Carried In The
Same Container. However, Cargoes Requiring “Away From” Segregation May Be Stored In The
Same Container After Obtaining Special Permission. Part Container Load Of Dangerous Goods
Should Be Stowed With Neutral Cargo And Should Be Towards The Door Of The Container.

2. Containers Should Be Tightly Packed, Adequately Braced And Secured For The Voyage, With
Minimum Likelihood Of Damage To The Container Fittings, Which Should Be Protected.

3. Containers To Be Used For Dangerous Goods Should Be Carefully Examined For Material
Damage And If Found, The Container Should Be Rejected.

4. Only Relevant Markings To Be Kept On The Container. When Packing, Any Leaking Packages
To Be Rejected.

5. When A Dangerous Goods Consignment Forms Only Part Of The Load Of A Container, It
Should Preferably Be Packed So As To Be Accessible From The Doors Of The Container.

6. Packages Should Be Examined And Any Found To Be Damaged, Leaking Or Sifting Should Not
Be Packed Into The Container. Care Should Be Taken To See That Excessive Water, Snow, Ice Or
Foreign Matter Adhering To Packages Is Removed Before Packing Into A Container.

What Is A Container Packing Certificate ?

The Container Packing Certificate Which Is Issued By The Shipper And Must Certify The Following :

 The Container Was Clean, Dry And Apparently Fit To Receive The Goods,
 That For Explosives The Requirements For Magazines Are Met,
 No Incompatible Goods Have Been Packed In The Container,
 All Packages Have Been Inspected And Only Sound Packages Loaded,
 All Packages Have Been Properly Packed In The Container And Secured,
 The Cargo Has Been Evenly Distributed In The Container,
 The Container And The Packages Have Been Properly Marked, Labelled And Placarded,
 The Dangerous Goods Declaration From The Shipper Has Been Received From The
Actual/Original Shipper,
 Drums Have Been Stowed In An Upright Position Unless Otherwise Authorised,

Notes:

I) When Dry Ice Is Used For Cooling In A Container, A Conspicuous Warning Must Be
Posted At The Door End “Dangerous Gas Inside (Co2), Ventilate Thoroughly Before
Entering”.

Ii) A Container Packing Certificate Is Not Required For Tanks.

Please consider the environment before printing out these copies 5

 7. Stowage Of Containers Containers Carrying Dangerous Goods
Should Be Examined For External Signs Of Damage, Leakage Or Shifting Of
Contents, And If In Evidence, The Container Should Be Refused For Shipment Until Repairs Have
Been Effected.

8. A Closed Container Loaded With Dangerous Goods Liable To Evolve Flammable Gases Should
Be Stowed “On Deck Only” Unless The Underdeck Space Does Not Contain Any Unsealed
Motors/Compressors Of Other Reefer Containers Or Incompatible Cargo As Per Segregation
Table. An Open Container With Dangerous Goods Liable To Evolve Flammable Gases Should Be
Stowed On Deck Only. Furthermore, Such A Container Should Be Placed Atleast 4.8 Metres Away
Ahead/Astern/Athwart Ships Of Such An Ignition Source.

9. When Stowage Is Permitted On Deck Or Under Deck, Then Containers With Marine Pollutants
Should Preferably Be Stowed Under Deck Unless The Weather Deck Provides Equivalent
Protection. If On Deck Stowage Is Only Permitted Then Containers Carrying Marine Pollutants
Should Preferably Be Stowed Inboard, In Sheltered Areas On The Weather Deck.

10. Containers Do Not Require Ventilation From Inside And This Should Not Be Attempted. When
Opening A Closed Container For Inspection Or Any Other Purpose The Same Precautions Should
Be Taken As When Entering An Enclosed Space Due To:

 Possibility That Leakage May Have Caused A Concentration Of Flammable Or Toxic Vapours.
 Or Has Produced An Oxygen Enriched Or Depleted Atmosphere.

What Do You Understand By Jettison ?

11. Jettisoning & Heat Protection The General Firefighting Recommendation Of A Number Of
Classes Of Dangerous Goods Suggests That The Commodity Should Be Jettisoned If There Is
Likelihood Of Their Involvement In A Fire. In The Case Of A Full Container Load, This May Be
Impractical And Should Be Interpreted As Follows :

“ The Commodities Are Particularly Dangerous And Should Risk Of Involvement In A Fire Arise,
Everything Possible Should Be Done To Prevent The Spreading Of The Fire To Those Containers. If
Despite This Effort The Said Container Is Likely To Get Involved In The Fire, Then Personnel Should Be
Withdrawn As The Container May Burn With An Explosive Violence.”

Containers Carrying A Significant Quantity Of Such Dangerous Goods Should Be Stowed As Far As
Practicable From The Accommodation And Navigational Areas, Unless A Container Jettison Device Has
Been Fitted And Is Operational. When Cooling Is Recommended A Container Should Be Cooled From
The Outside Only.

12. Condensation: Where Class 4.3 Is Packed, Special Precautions Should Be Taken Against
Condensation, Which Can Be Quite Heavy. The Risk Is Minimised If The Moisture Content Of The
Packaging And The Securing Materials Is Kept Low.

Why Do We Need To Control Temperature On Certain Dangerous Goods ?

13. Temperature Controlled Dangerous Goods: Dry Ice Or Liquid Nitrogen May Only Be Used For
Cooling Certain Dangerous Goods Shipped In Closed Containers In Cases Of Emergencies, Or As
A Backup For The Primary Refrigerant Source. It May Be Used As A Primary Refrigeration Source
After Obtaining Special Permission On Only Short International Voyages (200/600 Nm).

14. Containers Should Be Secured In Accordance With The “Code Of Safe Practice For Cargo
Stowage And Securing” (Assembly Resolution A.714(17) Of 6/11/1991).

Please consider the environment before printing out these copies 6

 15. Containers Stowed Below Deck Should Be Properly Secured
Against The Forces Encountered At Sea.

16. Containers Carried Under Fumigation Only A Cargo Transport Unit That Can Be Closed In
Such Away That The Escape Of Gas Is Reduced To A Minimum Should Be Used For The Carriage
Of Cargo Under Fumigation. A Closed Ctu Containing Cargo Under Fumigation Should Not Be
Allowed On Board Until Sufficient Time Has Lapsed To Allow The Attainment Of A Reasonably
Uniform Gas Concentration Throughout The Cargo. Because Of Variations Due To Types And
Amounts Of Fumigants And Commodities And Temperature Levels, The Period Which Should
Elapse Between Fumigant Application And Loading Should Be Determined By The Competent
Authority. (Usually Taken As 24 Hours).

The Master Must Be Informed Prior Loading Of A Ctu Under Fumigation And Must Be Supplied
Equipment For Detecting The Fumigant Gas Along With Instructions For Its Use.

Fumigants Should Not Be Applied To The Contents Of A Ctu Once It Has Been Loaded On A Ship.

A Ctu Which Has Been Ventilated After Fumigation In Ensure That No Harmful Concentration Of
Gas Remain Is Treated As A Normal Ctu And The Warning Signs Must Be Removed.

17. Ventilation The Provision Setout In This Code Regarding Ventilation Should Be Taken To Refer
To The Cargo Spaces Aboard Ship In Which Ctus’ Are Loading And Should Not Be Interpreted To
Require Ventilation Inside The Ctu.

When, For Any Reason, It Is Necessary To Open The Doors Of A Unit, The Nature Of The
Contents And The Possibility That Leakage May Have Caused An Unsafe Concentration Of Toxic
Or Flammable Vapours, Or May Have Produced An Oxygen-Enriched Or Depleted Atmosphere,
Should Be Considered, And Necessary Precautions Taken.

If The Temperature Of A Certain Substance Exceeds A Value Which Is Typical Of A Substance As

Packaged For Transport, A Self Accelerating Decomposition Possibly Of Explosive Violence May
Result.

The Requirements For The Temperature Control Of Certain Specified Substances Are Based On
The Assumption That The Temperature In The Immediate Surroundings Of The Cargo Does Not
Exceed 55o C During Transport And Attains This Value For A Relatively Short Time Only During
Each Period Of 24 Hours.

If A Substance Which Is Not Normally Temperature Controlled Is Transported Under Conditions

Where The Temperature May Exceed 55o C, It May Require Temperature Control; In Such Cases
Adequate Measures Should Be Taken.

Control Temperature Is The Maximum Temperature At Which Certain Substances Can Be Safely
Transported During A Prolonged Period Of Time.

Emergency Temperature Is The Temperature At Which Emergency Procedures Must Be

Implemented.

Self Accelerating Decomposition Temperature (Sadt) Is The Lowest Temperature At Which Self
Accelerating Decomposition May Occur For A Substance In The Packaging As Used In Transport.

Sadt Control Temperature Emergency Temperature

T = 20o C Or < 20o C Below Sadt 10o C Below Sadt

20o C >T<35o C 15o C Below Sadt 10o C Below Sadt

Please consider the environment before printing out these copies 7

T > 35o C 10o C Below Sadt 5o C Below Sadt

Notes

1. The Substance For Which A Control Temperature And An Emergency Temperature Are
Indicated In The Individual Schedules, Should Be Transported Such That The Temperature Of The
Immediate Surroundings Of The Cargo Does Not Exceed The Control Temperature.

2. The Actual Transport Temperature May Be Lower Than The Control Temperature But Should Be
Selective So As To Avoid Dangerous Separation Of Phases.

3. If, During Transport, The Control Temperature Is Exceeded, And Alerting Procedures Should
Initiated Involving Either Repair Of The Reefer Machinery Or An Increase In The Cooling Capacity.
If An Adequate Cooling Capacity Is Not Restored, Emergency Procedures, Including Preparing For
Disposal Of The Cargo, Together With Temperature Checks At Frequent Intervals, Should Be
Started.

4. The Reefer Equipment And Its Controls Should Be Readily And Safely Accessible And All
Electrical Connections Weatherproof.

5. If Substances Are Carried With A Control Temperature Of Less Than +25o C, The Ctu Should
Be Equipped With A Visible And Audible Alarm Effectively Set At No Higher Than The Control
Temperature. The Alarms Should Work Independently From The Power Supply Of The
Refrigeration System.

6. If An Electrical Supply Is Necessary For The Ctu To Operate The Reefer Equipment, Its Should
Be Ensured That The Correct Plug Types Are Fitted.

7. There Are Special Requirements For Insulated, Refrigerated And Mechanically Refrigerated
Vehicles When Carried On Board A Roro Vessel As Described Under Section 21.6 Page 0157.
