ADR loading provision CV37

Cool by-products to ambient (unless calcined), ventilate and keep dry; doors marked "WARNING CLOSED MEANS OF CONTAINMENT OPEN WITH CAUTION".

Before loading, the by-products must be at ambient temperature unless calcined to drive off moisture. Vehicles and containers with bulk loads are ventilated adequately and protected against water ingress for the whole journey. Closed vehicles and closed containers carry on their cargo doors the mark WARNING / CLOSED MEANS OF CONTAINMENT / OPEN WITH CAUTION in letters at least 25 mm high, in a language the consignor considers appropriate.
