participating in a working group to
produce new industry guidelines on
how to achieve compliance with the
2002 Dangerous Substances and
Explosive Atmospheres Regulations
(DSEAR/ATEX), for complete
refrigeration systems charged with
ammonia.
The group was set up by the Air
Conditioning and Refrigeration
Industry Board (ACRIB) after a
stakeholder meeting in November
2010, which addressed the current
conflict between DSEAR and BS EN
378 regulations. The group includes
representatives of the Institute of
Refrigeration (IoR), the Food Storage
& Distribution Federation (FSDF)
and other Air Conditioning and
Refrigeration Industry Board
(ACRIB) members).
