Since this is a highly specialized, pressure rated container, a
deposit is required upon purchase. Each container is stamped with
a unique serial number, and a detailed individual history is maintained.
If the container is returned in good condition within six month
by the purchaser, credit will then be issued for the deposit amount.
Aldrich has a complete maintenance program to insure that each customer
receives a deposit container in the best possible condition. Please
do not mark directly on or place additional labels on the UN-Pac
containers, use tags or place labels on the plastic sleeve to label
as partial or empty. Since chemical residue on the exterior of the
container may damage the container please remove any spillage if
it occurs. Containers returned with damage due to chemical residue
may result in loss of the deposit.
On receiving an Aldrich UN-Pac, read and closely follow the standard
procedure described in this bulletin, regardless of the quantity
needed or the chemical transferred. Aldrich offers a wide variety
of adapters and transfer equipment. These are described in detail
later in the equipment section of this bulletin. Since the products
packaged in UN-Pac containers are sensitive to external contamination,
highly hazardous, or sensitive to water, oxygen or both, they must
be handled while using appropriate personal protective equipment
and must never be exposed to the atmosphere.
Figure 1 illustrates the valve configuration
on a UN-Pac container. The nitrogen outlet valve is connected to
the vapor space inside the container. The liquid outlet valve is
connected to a diptube inside the container.
