6304.2.2 Distance from storage to exposures for oxidizing gases.
Outdoor storage areas for oxidizing gases shall be located in accordance with FC Table 6304.2.2.
Quantity of Gas Stored SCF | Distance to a Building Not Associated with the Manufacture or Distribution of Oxidizing Gases or Public Street, Private Road or Lot Line (feet) | Distance Between Storage Areas (feet) |
greater than 3,000 up to 50,000 | 5 | 5 |
greater than 50,000 up to 100,000 | 10 | 10 |
greater than 100,000 | 15 | 15 |
For SI: 1 foot = 304.8 mm, 1 cubic foot = 0.02832 m3.
a. The distances do not apply when protective structures having a minimum fire-resistance rating of 2 hours interrupt the line of sight between the storage container and the exposure. The protective structure shall be at least 5 feet from the exposure. The configuration of the protective structure shall be designed to allow natural ventilation to prevent the accumulation of hazardous gas concentrations.
6304.2.2.1 Oxidizing cryogenic fluids.
Outdoor storage areas for oxidizing cryogenic fluids shall be located in accordance with FC Chapter 55.
6304.2.3 Storage configuration for liquid and solid oxidizers.
Storage configuration for liquid and solid oxidizers shall be in accordance with FC Tables 6304.1.7(1) through 6304.1.7(4).
6304.2.4 Storage configuration for oxidizing gases.
Storage configuration for oxidizing gases shall be in accordance with FC Table 6304.2.2.
