Title (German)

Kälteanlagen und Wärmepumpen - Sicherheitstechnische und umweltrelevante Anforderungen - Teil 3: Aufstellungsort und Schutz von Personen; Deutsche Fassung EN 378-3:2016

Overview

This European Standard specifies the requirements for the safety of persons and property, provides guidance for the protection of the environment and establishes procedures for the operation, maintenance and repair of refrigerating systems and the recovery of refrigerants. The term "refrigerating system" used in this European Standard includes heat pumps. This Part 3 of the European Standard is applicable to the installation site (plant space and services). It specifies requirements on the site for safety, which may be needed because of, but not directly connected with, the refrigerating system and its ancillary components. This standard applies: a) to refrigerating systems, stationary or mobile, of all sizes except to vehicle air conditioning systems covered by a specific product standard such as ISO 13043; b) to secondary cooling or heating systems; c) to the location of the refrigerating systems; d) to replaced parts and added components after adoption of this standard if they are not identical in function and in the capacity. This document (EN 378-3:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 182 "Refrigerating systems, safety and environmental requirements" (secretariat: DIN, Germany). Regarding the German collaboration, Working Committee NA 044-00-01 AA "Sicherheit und Umweltschutz" ("Safety and environment protection") at DIN Standards Committee Refrigeration Technology (FNKä) is responsible.
