In the NFPA 704 system, the "No Water" symbol is represented by a white circle with a diagonal line through it, which typically appears in the blue section of the diamond. This symbol indicates that water should not be used on the material in question during firefighting efforts. You can find this symbol on the NFPA 704 placard, often displayed on hazardous materials to inform first responders of the appropriate safety measures.
The NFPA 704 diamond is a ring of smaller diamonds that are blue, red, yellow and white. A number or symbol in each section indicates the relative danger.
0-0-0
Cyclohexane does not have a specific NFPA diamond classification since it is not considered a hazardous material under the NFPA 704 standard.
The NFPA 704 symbol for acetylene is a blue diamond with a white flame symbol on top, a red health hazard rating of 4 (extreme), a blue flammability rating of 4 (extreme), and a yellow reactivity rating of 0 (stable).

Potential dangers.
There are reports that tert-Butyl hydroperoxide has an NFPA 704 rating of 4-4-4, but it is not available in anything over 90 percent concentration, having 2-2-3. If you are ever in a place that needs such stuff, you are strongly urged to find a different job.
The number 4 on the NFPA 704 placard indicates the highest hazard in any of the three categories (health, fire, reactivity).
Health (blue) 2 Fire (red) 0 Reactivity (yellow) 0
Health (Blue): 1 Flammability (Red): 2 Reactivity (Yellow): 0 Special (White): None
If an NFPA 704 Fire Diamond has a 2 in the yellow section it means the reactivity of the material is such that it can have violent chemical change at high temperature or pressure, it can react violently with water, or it can form explosive mixtures with water.
