2 TECHNICAL DATA AND CHARACTERISTICS OF CHLO-
RINE
The following general information on chlorine may be useful
in planning a chlorinator installation; however, a specific ap-
plication may require more information than that included
here. For further information, consult your chlorine supplier,
the Chlorine Institute, Inc., or similar organization.
Chlorine in commerce is a liquefied gas under pressure. It is
a clear, amber-colored liquid. The gas has a greenish-yellow
color and a strong, pungent odor. It is an irritant to the skin
and respiratory system. In the moisture-free state at ordinary
temperatures, it is relatively non-corrosive. In the presence
of moisture, however, it is highly corrosive. Accordingly, ev-
ery precaution should be taken to avoid leaks, to stop them
promptly if they occur, and to keep moisture out of valves,
tubing, etc., not specifically designed to handle moist chlorine.
Among the important physical properties of chlorine are:
Specific Gravity, Dry Gas
2.48 at 32° F and 1 atm referred to air.
Specific Gravity, Liquid
1.47 at 32° F and 53 . 5 psia.
Liquid to Gas volume Ratio
1:456.5 at 32° F and 1 atm.
Latent heat of Vaporization
123.9 Btu per lb at boiling point, -29.2° F.
Specific Volume, Dry Gas
1 lb = 4.99 of at 32° F and 1 atm.
Specific Volume, Liquid
1 lb = 0.0109 cf at 32° F and 53.5 psia.
Weight, Dry Gas
1 cf = 0.2006 lb at 32° F and 1 atm.
