3487 on a placard, orange panel or shipping paper
It can stand for either of two ERG 2024 entries: “Calcium hypochlorite, hydrated, corrosive, with not less than 5.5% but not more than 16% water” and “Calcium hypochlorite, hydrated mixture, corrosive, with not less than 5.5% but not more than 16% water”. Both use Guide 140, so the number alone is enough to find the guide. On a numbered orange panel, 3487 is the lower number (how to read an orange panel).
