International standards for refrigeration safety.

Number: pap. Plenary Lecture 2

Author(s) : PEARSON A.

Summary

The development of safety standards for refrigeration systems is a complex and often misunderstood process. This paper describes the way in which refrigeration safety and refrigerant international standards have been created and adapted over years and the difficulties that the present process creates. It goes on to explore the implications for the transition from fluorocarbon to natural refrigerants and draws conclusions about the best way to work within the standards process and the ways in which the process might be amended in order to provide a better match to the current needs of industry.
