Old-timers under pressure - ammonia system made fit for the future according to current standards

cold.world Engineering was commissioned with the detailed recording and evaluation of an ammonia refrigeration system from 1973 for a municipal property. The aim was to be able to continue operating the system in compliance with current regulations – particularly with regard to the requirements of TRAS 110 and DIN 378.

The work focused on:

  • the complete recording of all system components including pipelines, tanks and secondary circuits,
  • the creation of R+I diagrams, an emergency shutdown plan and a site plan,
  • the preparation of a pressure vessel directory and an explosion protection document.
  • Signage in accordance with current standards

In consultation with the responsible expert, measures were defined to adapt the system in accordance with standards – including the design of the emergency stop systems and the monitoring of filling quantities in accordance with Section 29a BImSchG.

With this project, cold.world Engineering is making a contribution to the continued use of existing technology under the conditions of today’s safety and environmental standards.
