Introduction
This document establishes a method of allocating a four-digit code number (FTSC) to any gases and
liquids that are transported under pressure or mixture of gases contained in cylinders. This code number
categorizes the gas, liquids that are transported under pressure or gas mixture in terms of its physical-
chemical properties and/or flammability, toxicity, state of gas, and corrosiveness (see 4.1). FTSC is the
abbreviation of these properties.
The FTSC code enables gases and liquids that are transported under pressure or gas mixtures to be assigned
to one of the 15 “compatible” gas groups.
The properties and the selection criteria are aligned as appropriate with the Globally Harmonized System of
[11]
Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS).

4 Gas properties - Numerical gas code (FTSC)
4.1 General
The code number assigned to a gas or liquid is based on the following four physical-chemical properties:
a) category I (F): fire potential, i.e. “oxidizing power and flammability”, which defines the gas behaviour
with respect to combustion;
b) category II (T): acute toxicity;
c) category III (S): gas state, defining the physical state of the fluid in the cylinder at 15 °C within a given
pressure range;
d) category IV (C): corrosiveness (ability to damage or destroy living tissues: eyes, skin and mucous
membranes, or the potential for an acid/base chemical reaction).
Each category is subdivided into different characteristics (subdivisions), each identified by a different
digit. In this way, a gas in a given state is characterized by a series of four digits (one digit per category) as
illustrated in 4.1.2 to 4.1.5.
Annex A includes examples of how FTSC codes are rationalized for new entries to this document.
4.2 Fire potential, category I
Subdivision 0: inert (any gas not classified under subdivisions 1 to 5 below).
Subdivision 1: supports combustion (gas having an oxidizing power equal to or less than a mixture
containing 23,5 % of oxygen in nitrogen).
Subdivision 2: flammable (gas having flammability limits in air).
NOTE 1 See ISO 10156 for more information.
Subdivision 3: pyrophoric (spontaneously flammable).
Subdivision 4: oxidizing (gas having an oxidizing power greater than a mixture containing 23,5 % O in N ).
2 2
NOTE 2 See ISO 10156 for more information.
Subdivision 5: chemically unstable (flammable and subject to rapid decomposition or polymerization).
NOTE 3 When considering the properties of gases from subdivisions 1 and 4, the following applies:
a) subdivision 4 considers the risk of accelerating combustion more than air does;
b) for gas/material compatibility with gases under pressure of subdivisions 1 and 4, it is considered that the risk of
1)
ignition exists when the oxygen partial pressure is more than 30 bar ;
c) for valve outlet selection (for example, see ISO 5145), the risk is to mix a flammable gas (subdivision 2 and/or 3)
with a gas of subdivision 1 and/or 4.
4.3 Acute toxicity, category II
Subdivision 0: supporting human life.
Subdivision 1: non-toxic LC (1 h) > 0,5 % by volume (5 000 ppm).
Subdivision 2: toxic; 0,02 % by volume (200 ppm) < LC (1 h) ≤ 0,5 % by volume (5 000 ppm).
5 2
1) 1 bar = 0,1 MPa = 10 Pa; 1 MPa = 1 N/mm .
ISO 14456:2024(en)
Subdivision 3: very toxic LC (1 h) ≤ 0,02 % by volume (200 ppm).
NOTE See ISO 10298 for more information. For LC values, see ISO 10298:2018, Table B.1.
4.4 State of the gas (in the cylinder at 15 °C), category III
All pressures for compressed gases are working pressures according to the definition given in ISO 10286.
For liquefied gases, this is the developed pressure at 65 °C (normally equal to the cylinder test pressure).
Subdivision 0: liquefied gas of 35 bar or less.
Subdivision 1: liquefied gas at a pressure greater than 35 bar.
Subdivision 2: liquid withdrawal – liquefied gas (optional).
Subdivision 3: dissolved gas.
Subdivision 4: gas phase withdrawal at 35 bar or less.
Subdivision 5: compressed gas between 35 bar and 250 bar (Europe).
Subdivision 6: compressed gas between 35 bar and 207 bar (North America).
Subdivision 7: compressed gas above 207 bar and up to 350 bar (North America) or above 250 bar up to
350 bar (Europe).
NOTE 1 Subdivisions 5 and 6 have been adopted as a result of a compromise between the European and the North
American approach. The European preference for a limit of 250 bar reflects the current tendency towards higher
pressure applications. The current North American practice requires a limit of 207 bar for which their pressure
reducing valves are designed. This is the working pressure at the referenced temperature of 15 °C. Therefore, three
pressure classes have been retained. Other jurisdictions can use different values.
Either subdivision 5 or subdivision 6 shall be used, never both. The selection of either subdivision will
determine the applicable pressure for subdivision 7.
Subdivision 5 or 6: medium pressure range, each user being required to select one subdivision exclusively to
determine the upper limit of the medium pressure range.
Subdivision 7: high pressure range, the lower limit of which depends on the subdivision selected for the
medium pressure range.
After the introduction of subdivisions 5, 6, and 7, a number of pressure ranges have been (or are being)
established to make the selection of the proper cylinder valve outlet connection (e.g. 500 bar, 800 bar,
sub atmospheric pressure). These ranges have been chosen to protect downstream regulators and other
ancillary equipment from over-pressurized conditions. Consequently, for Table 2 to Table 16, the third digit
(S) used for all compressed gases is “5” to indicate that this is a compressed gas.
NOTE 2 Subdivisions 8 and 9 have been allocated for liquid withdrawal cylinders of cryogenic gases in the US.
4.5 Corrosiveness, category IV
Subdivision 0: non-corrosive.
Subdivision 1: non-halogen acid forming.
Subdivision 2: basic.
Subdivision 3: halogen acid forming.
NOTE See ISO 13338 for more information. For corrosiveness subdivisions, see ISO 13338:2022, Table 1.
ISO 14456:2024(en)
5 List of gases and liquids with the corresponding FTSC codes
5.1 Basic principles and single gases
The FTSC code enables the assignment of any gas (including gas mixtures) or any liquid to be packaged
under pressure to one of the 15 “compatible” gas groups listed in the table below.
NOTE The only purpose of the numerical code is to group compatible gases together in order that particular valve
outlets can be assigned to each group. Use of the code is limited only to the assignment of valve outlets.
Table 1 — Characteristics of groups
Group Characteristics
1 Non-flammable, non-toxic gases and qualifying gas mixtures, less stable thermally than group 3

2 Carbon dioxide
3 Non-flammable, non-toxic, and thermally stable gases (except carbon dioxide) and qualifying gas mixtures
4 Non-flammable, toxic, and corrosive (or corrosive by hydrolysis) gases and qualifying gas mixtures
a
5 Air
6 Flammable and non-toxic gases and qualifying gas mixtures
7 Flammable, toxic, and corrosive (basic) gases and qualifying gas mixtures
8 Flammable, toxic, and corrosive (acidic) or non-corrosive gases and qualifying gas mixtures
9 Spontaneously flammable gases and qualifying gas mixtures

10 Oxygen

11 Nitrous oxide
12 Oxidizing, toxic, and/or corrosive gases and qualifying gas mixtures
13 Flammable gases and qualifying gas mixtures subject to rapid decomposition or polymerization
a
14 Acetylene
15 Oxidizing, non-toxic, and non-corrosive gas mixtures
a
Groups 2, 5, 10, 11 and 14 only contain one single gas and are assigned to individual named gases from which mixtures and
other gases are excluded.
5.2 Assignment of a gas mixture to a group
For the purposes of this document, a gas mixture is defined as an intentional combination of two or more
gases, which can be either in the gaseous phase or liquefied under pressure when in a gas cylinder.
NOTE This document does not attempt to identify gas mixtures which can be safely and satisfactorily prepared;
this is the responsibility of the gas manufacturer. It does not describe any methods or techniques for preparing gas
mixtures.
The principle of allocation of a four-digit numerical code (FTSC) to gas mixtures is the same as that for
single gases. The allocation of the FTSC code to a gas mixture, which allows the assignment of this mixture
to one of the group of gases and gas mixtures (see Table 1), depends on the flammability, oxidizing power,
toxicity and corrosiveness of the final mixture. The determination of flammability and oxidizing power is
given in ISO 10156, that of toxicity in ISO 10298, and that for corrosiveness in ISO 13338.
Mixtures containing spontaneously flammable gases (i.e. pyrophoric gases such as silane in Table 10) shall
be considered as spontaneously flammable gas mixtures if the content of the pyrophoric gas(es) is more
than 1 % (by volume).
Table 16 gives the complete list of gases in alphabetical order.
