Flammability: hydrocarbon refrigerants.

Author(s) : RITTER T. J.

Summary

The paper describes the various issues concerning flammable refrigerants, including the way in which single refrigerants and blends are handled under both European and American classification systems. It also details the safety aspects concerned with the use of hydrocarbons in particular within the refrigeration industry and explains how the associated risks can be reduced to negligible levels through adherence to the requirements laid down in new standards such as Bs:4434:1995. These requirements are discussed in a practical way by reference to a typical way by reference to a typical case study.
