NFPA 432-2002 PDF Download

The NFPA 432 standard is a document that outlines requirements for the safe storage of organic peroxide formulations. The standard classifies organic peroxide formulations into five different classes, with Class I being the most hazardous and Class V the least hazardous. It also defines the types of storage facilities that are suitable for these formulations.

The code sets out fire safety requirements based on both the material class and the facility class, including the need for sprinkler protection. It also provides regulations for the maintenance, operation, and electrical requirements of these storage facilities. The standard is accompanied by an annex that includes a comprehensive list of recommended classifications for typical organic peroxide formulations.
