MTS Series 111 Accumulator - Manual (Page 22)

4.1.0 Hazard Placard Placement
Hazard placards contain specific safety information and are affixed directly to the system so they are plainly
visible.
Each placard describes a system-related hazard. When possible, international symbols (icons) are used to
graphically indicate the type of hazard and the placard label indicates its severity. In some instances, the
placard may contain text that describes the hazard, the potential result if the hazard is ignored, and general
instructions about how to avoid the hazard.
The following labels are typically located on the accumulator.
