Buyer’s Notes

Choosing the grade. Liquid chlorine is supplied in cylinders or tonners to statutory norms, at 99.50% minimum Cl2 per IS 646 (99.80% on this report). Choose the container size by your consumption rate and by what your chlorinator can handle.

What to check on the spec sheet. Cl2 purity, moisture (150 ppm max, 72 ppm on this report) and the cylinder test and valve status. Moisture matters because wet chlorine corrodes valves and piping.

Handling and storage. Highly toxic and corrosive. It must only be handled by trained personnel, upright, in a ventilated, dedicated chlorine room, with a leak-detection kit and breathing apparatus ready, and in line with statutory rules.

Where it is used. Municipal and industrial water disinfection, swimming-pool chlorination, bleaching and chemical manufacture.
