Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through
ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee
has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely
with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the World Trade
Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 58, Gas cylinders, Subcommittee SC 2, Cylinder
fittings, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/
TC 23, Transportable gas cylinders, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO
and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 14456:2015), which has been technically
revised. It also incorporates the Amendment ISO 14456:2015/Amd.1:2019.
The main changes are as follows:
— corrections to CAS numbers and FTSC codes;
— consequential revisions as a result of a new edition of ISO 5145;
— addition of new FTSC codes for commonly used gases and liquids.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

ISO 14456:2024(en)
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).

1 Scope
This document gives a list of FTSC (fire potential, i.e. “oxidizing power and flammability”, toxicity, state of
the gas, and corrosiveness) codes determined according to the relevant properties of gases and of some
liquids that are transported under pressure.
It does not cover material compatibility with gases which is covered by the ISO 11114 series.
