Beyond codes
• Compliance to codes is not enough. Not all aspects are covered: The way the equipment is arranged, installed, operated and maintained. A safe component that is not properly installed or maintained can lead to unsafe situations.• With the number of ammonia systems increasing, new safeguards are needed to avoid incidents that will be detrimental to ammonia and that can often be avoided.• Safety of refrigeration plants is impacted by all 4 major activities:
1. Design and Manufacturing Manufacturer/Contractor2. Installation Contractor3. Operation End user / Contractor4. Maintenance End user / Contractor

Safe Accesses
Good access is essential to allow to maintenance personnel to work in safe conditions and to easily access all parts of the ammonia circuits, while carrying a tool box.

A code of good practice and know how development are needed.
Conclusion
Ammonia is an excellent refrigerant, much safer when used in combination with CO2Ammonia is an excellent refrigerant, much safer when used in combination with CO2
Poor example of outsourcing: Any live opened pipe must be blinded with plain counter flanges, not relying on shut off valves alone.
Example of a suction valve flange just blanked with a piece of tape.
