Abstract: Till now classification schemes have been confining themselves largely to entities in normal environmental conditions. But literary warrant has begun to grow in respect of entities habitually in or being brought into abnormal environmental conditions. Efficiency in pin-pointed documentation service and depth classification calls for abnormally environmented entities to constitute isolates to be provided with distinctive isolate numbers. Experiments were made in meeting this problem by Phase Device and Facet Device. These did not give helpful results. The fact that an Environmented Entity is a (W) and not a () led to the final solution that it should be accommodated in zone 4 of Array of Order 1 in [1P1]. To prevent formation of homonyms, Subject Device had to be differentiated from Environment Device by the insertion of “0” (Zero) immediately after the starter bracket. This device opens up a vast vista for investigation which will help enrichment of all analytico-synthetic schemes such as CC and UDC. The construction of a comprehensive schedule of numbers by Environment Device should be taken on hand for the natural sciences and social sciences.
