ERG 2024 lists UN/NA 3246 (Methanesulfonyl chloride) under Guide 156, titled “Substances - Toxic and/or Corrosive (Combustible/Water-Sensitive)”.
Material name
3246 on a placard, orange panel or shipping paper
It can stand for either of two ERG 2024 entries: “Methanesulfonyl chloride” and “Methanesulphonyl chloride”. Both use Guide 156, so the number alone is enough to find the guide. On a numbered orange panel, 3246 is the lower number (how to read an orange panel).
ERG 2024 markings for 3246
3246 is highlighted in green, so ERG 2024 Table 1 (Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances) has an entry for it: “Methanesulfonyl chloride”. Hazora shows those distances in the app, not on this page. Its guide number 156 has no P.
