The second (2nd) public review of IIAR 9-2020 Addendum A-202x, Minimum System Safety Requirements for Existing Closed-Circuit Ammonia Refrigeration Systems is now open. The International Institute of All-Natural Refrigeration (IIAR) invites you to make comments on the addendum. Substantive changes resulting from this public review will also be provided for comment in a future public review if necessary.
IIAR 9-2020 Addendum A-202x, specifies the minimum system safety requirements applicable to existing closed-circuit ammonia refrigeration systems. It presupposes that the persons who use the document have a working knowledge of the functionality of ammonia refrigerating system(s) and basic ammonia refrigerating practices and principles. This addendum shall apply only to stationary closed-circuit refrigeration systems utilizing ammonia as the refrigerant. It supplements existing general refrigeration standards issued by IIAR and other organizations such as ASHRAE, ASME, and ANSI. It is not intended to supplant existing safety codes (e.g., model mechanical or fire codes).
IIAR has designated this addendum as IIAR 9-2020 Addendum A-202x. Upon approval by the ANSI Board of Standards Review (BSR), the addendum will then receive a different name that reflects that it is ANSI approved and will finalize and include the approval year.
We invite you to participate in the second (2nd) public review of IIAR 9-2020 Addendum A-202x. IIAR will use the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) procedures to develop evidence of consensus among affected parties. ANSI's role in the revision process is to establish and enforce standards of openness, balance, due process and harmonization with other American and International Standards. IIAR is the ANSI-accredited standards developer for IIAR 9-2020 Addendum A-202x, and is responsible for the technical content.
