This NFPA Oxygen 3-0-0 Floor Sign ensures worker safety by providing proper safety and hazard identification of oxygen, a refrigerated liquid or compressed gas. Oxygen is not flammable, but as an oxidizer it will intensify combustion. NFPA Oxygen 3-0-0 Floor Sign is designed to provide a clear reminder to follow safety practices to prevent serious accidents or injury. Signs can help identify oxygen storage locations, oxygen tanks and other areas where oxygen is in use.
20 Mil Heavy-Duty Semi-Permanent Adhesive-Backed Vinyl with Textured Water Resistant Anti-Slip Laminate
- Textured surface.
- Temporary use on low-pile carpeting. 20 mil.
- Resistance: Water, Mild Detergents
Laminated with a textured, non-slip surface that also protects against water and mild detergents.
Apply to smooth, clean, dry, and even surfaces in excellent condition, indoors or outdoors. May also be used temporarily on most low-pile carpeting for several months. Avoid areas that are subject to traffic from heavy equipment, such as forklifts. Do not overlap floor signs.
To apply, be sure the floor is above 55° F. Clean floor prior to application. A small amount of water may be lightly sprayed over the placement area to make installation easier. Starting at one corner, simultaneously peel backing paper and apply floor sign to floor. Smooth out lightly using a squeegee from the center to the edges. Do not smooth with your hands. Continue with firm, overlapping strokes from the center out to each edge, peeling back the paper backing as you go. Be sure that all edges and corners are firmly attached.
After applying, do not scrub or polish area on or surrounding floor signs for at least 48 hours. After 48 hours, the floor sign will maintain adherence within the service temperature range of -40° to 120° F.
When removed, there may be some residue of adhesive that can be removed with detergent, depending on the surface. It’s also possible the adhesive will remove dirt from the surface, leaving the appearance of residue.
Our durable anti-slip floor signs will stick to most smooth, clean, dry surfaces both indoors and outdoors. They can also be used temporarily on most low-pile carpeting for several months. Buyer should test in non-conspicuous area before proceeding.

NFPA 704 - A Quick Overview
What is NFPA 704?
NFPA 704 is the standard that is intended to provide a simple, readily recognized, and easily understood system of markings. These markings will provide a general idea of the hazards of a material and the severity of these hazards as they relate to emergency response.
In more specific terms the objectives of the system are to:
- To provide an appropriate signal or alert and on-the-spot information to safeguard the lives of both public and private emergency response personnel
- To assist in planning for effective fire and emergency control operations, including cleanup
- To assist all designated personnel, engineers, and plant and safety personnel in evaluating hazards
The system shall also enable fire-fighting, emergency, and other personnel to easily decide whether to evacuate the area or to commence emergency control procedures. It shall also assist those personnel in selecting fire-fighting tactics and emergency procedures.
Where do I need to post NFPA 704 signs?
Signs shall be in locations approved by the authority having jurisdiction and as a minimum shall be posted at the following locations:
- Two exterior walls or enclosures containing a means of access to a building or facility
- Each access to a room or area
- Each principal means of access to an exterior storage area
What do the colors and ratings in each diamond mean?
Blue - Health Hazard Rating
This relates to the capability of a material to cause personal injury due to contact with or entry into the body via inhalation, skin contact, eye contact, or ingestion. All ratings are determined under emergency conditions.
Rating | Description |
---|---|
Materials that can be lethal | |
Materials that can cause serious or permanent injury | |
Materials that can cause temporary incapacitation or residual injury | |
Materials that can cause significant irritation | |
Materials that would offer no hazard beyond that of ordinary combustible material |
Red - Flammability Hazard Rating
This relates to the degree of susceptibility of materials to burning.
Rating | Description |
---|---|
Materials that rapidly or completely vaporize at atmospheric pressure and normal ambient temperature or that are readily dispersed in air and burn readily |
|
Liquids and solids (including finely divided suspended solids) that can be ignited under almost all ambient temperature conditions |
|
Materials that must be moderately heated or exposed to relatively high ambient temperatures before ignition can occur |
|
Materials that must be preheated before ignition can occur | |
Materials that will not burn under typical fire conditions |
Yellow - Instability Hazard Rating
This relates to the degree of hazard due to reaction with ambient air, light, or both, and the degree of intrinsic susceptibility of materials to release energy by self-reaction or polymerization.
Rating | Description |
---|---|
Materials that can be lethal | |
Materials that can cause serious or permanent injury | |
Materials that can cause temporary incapacitation or residual injury | |
Materials that can cause significant irritation | |
Materials that would offer no hazard beyond that of ordinary combustible material |
White - Special Hazards
This area of the diamond shall address water reactivity and oxidizing properties of the materials that cause special problems or require special fire-fighting techniques.
Rating | Description |
---|---|
OX |
Material possesses oxidizing properties |
SA |
Material is a simple asphyxiant |
Material that reacts violently or explosively with water |
Non-Standard Special Hazard Symbols
These special hazard symbols and others are not part of the NFPA 704 standard, but may be used if permitted by the authority having jurisdiction.
Rating | Description |
---|---|
ACID |
Material is an acid |
ALK |
Material is a base (alkali) |
COR |
Material is corrosive |
CRY |
Material is cryogenic |
POI |
Material that is poisonous |
Material is radioactive |
