Import Tips
• Ship as UN1013 Carbon Dioxide, compressed; require hydrostatic test certificates and valve specs
• Distinguish from standalone CO2 cylinders (2811.22) by extinguisher-specific threading/nozzle
• EPA SNAP approval needed for ozone-depleting alternatives; declare pressure rating accurately
