Summary
This code, prepared by the Australian Institute of Refrigeration, Air Conditioning and Heating (AIRAH) and the Institute of Refrigeration, Heating and Air Conditioning Engineers New Zealand (IRHACE) with funding from the Australian Government Department of the Environment and Water Resources and the New Zealand Climate Change Office applies only to appliances which contain a fluorocarbon refrigerant charge of two kilograms or less, and do not require any work to be done on the refrigeration system at the time of installation. It specifies requirements which are mandatory for compliance with the code, and also includes best practice recommendations. Environmental benefits and cost savings from reduced losses can be expected from the application of this code including the use of alternative refrigerants. It is divided into 2 parts: part 1 covers self-contained low charge systems (less than 2 kg); part 2 covers all other stationary and transport refrigeration and air-conditioning systems (except automotive air conditioning). Both parts can be downloaded from the Australian Refrigeration Council Web site: www.arctick.org/news/pdf/Stationary_COP_2007_Part_1.pdf and www.arctick.org/news/pdf/Stationary_COP_2007_Part_2.pdf.
