Cleaning Guidelines
You can wash these bottles with any mild, non-abrasive detergent, such as Aquet
Laboratory Detergent (Cat. # F17094-0030 and F17094-0020). Rinse thoroughly with distilled
water. To avoid scratching the plastic or the printing, do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring
pads. Do not autoclave these bottles.
NOTICE: Periodically inspect the wash bottles for signs of stress such as cracking, crazing,
or whitening of the plastic. When signs of stress are detected, discontinue use and dispose
in a manner consistent with federal, state, and local regulations.
Indicates that these bottles
have a built-in vent

INSTRUCTIONS
Right-to-Know, Safety-Vented™ Wash Bottles with GHS Labeling
These wash bottles display GHS pictogram(s) and signal word to comply with requirements of
Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) and the
Occupational Health and Safety Administration’s Hazard Communication Standard (HazCom
2012) for workplace labeled containers as described in 29 CFR 1910.1200. These bottles also
display chemical name and formula, full color NFPA diamond, Chemical Abstract System (CAS)
number, recommended protective equipment, and affected organs.
Bottles are made of easy to squeeze, translucent, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) with
safety-vented polypropylene caps, with the following exceptions:

** Non-Vented
The venting fitting is an anti-siphoning device that prevents volatile liquids from percolating
up through the stem and dripping out of the tip when there is a change in atmospheric pressure
or temperature. Additionally, this venting fitting allows the wash bottle to dispense liquids with
the bottle in an inverted position.

Assembly Directions:
The venting fitting is in three pieces: (A) the stem,
(B) the slide valve and (C) the tube. These three
pieces will be assembled and attached to underside of the cap (D).*
1.
Assemble the slide valve (B) onto the narrow end
of the stem (A). Insure it moves freely.
2.
Press the square cut end of the tube (C) onto
the narrow end of the stem (A) to retain the slide
valve (B) on the stem. The square cut end of the
tube must be pressed until it stops at the slightly
wider mid section of the stem.
3.
Press the stem (A) onto the the underside of the
wash bottle cap (D). The shortest of the four ribs
on the wide end of the stem should be facing
away from the direction of the spout tip.
4.
Screw the cap and assembled venting fitting
and tube securely onto the bottle neck.
* For non-vented products, attach square cut end
of tube to underside of cap and secure to bottle
NOTE: High vapor pressure liquids may exhibit some dripping when the bottle is first filled and capped.
To prevent this from happening screw the cap on loosely and wait a short time before tightening.

Section A: Chemical Identification
The name of the chemical, ICS (International Chemical Society) formula, U.S. DOT, OSHA, and
CAS (Chemical Abstract Service) reference number are clearly identified.
Section B: GHS Pictograms and Meanings.
Exploding Bomb:
This chemical can blow up.
Flame:
Flammable chemicals can catch fire
easily and burst into flames.
Corrosion:
Corrosive chemicals can cause serious
damage to skin and eyes. They can also
damage clothing, metal, and work surfaces.
Gas Cylinder:
This chemical can explode, rocket,
or harm health if the cylinder is heated,
ruptured, or leaking.
Flame Over Circle:
Oxidizing chemicals can react with other
materials causing them to burn or explode.
Signal Word:
The signal word (Danger or Hazard) is used to alert the user to potential
hazard and is determined by the hazard class and category of the chemical.
Health Hazard:
Prolonged exposure to this chemical
may cause health problems such as
cancer or birth defects. Some chemicals
may cause asthma or damage
to specific organs of the body.
Exclamation Mark:
This chemical may cause immediate
health effects such as skin rashes
or respiratory irritation. Some chemicals
may damage the ozone layer.

Section C: Fire Hazards
The diamond indicates U.S. standard NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) codes that
rank hazards according to the chemical’s reactivity to the presence of fire. The red, yellow, and
blue diamonds use a rating scale of 0 to 4, with 4 representing the greatest hazard and 0 the
least. The bottom diamond contains special pictograms as needed.
Top Diamond (Red):
Fire Hazard and Flash Point
4 – Very flammable; Below 21°C/70°F
3 – Ignites under normal temperature
conditions; Below 38°C/100°F
2 – Ignites with moderate heating;
Below 93°C/200°F
1 – Ignites when preheated;
Above 93°C/200°F
0 – Will not ignite (Non-flammable)
Left-hand Diamond
(Blue): Health Hazard
4 – Deadly
3 – Extremely Hazardous
2 – Hazardous
1 – Slightly Hazardous
0 – Normal Material
Right-hand Diamond
(Yellow): Reactivity
4 – Explosive
3 – Shock and heat may detonate
2 – Violent change may occur
1 – Unstable if heated
0 – Normally stable
Bottom Diamond (Uncolored/White):
Specific Hazard
OXY – Oxidizer
ACID – Acid
ALK – Alkali
COR – Corrosive
W – Water Reactive, use NO WATER
– Radiation Hazard
Section D: Target Organs, Effects and Route of Entry
Additional information required by OSHA Hazard Communication Standard.
Appropriate Target Organs and Effects labels:
Lungs; heart; kidney; eyes; skin; prostate; blood; liver; central nervous system;
