CSA B52 Mechanical Refrigeration Code
- The CSA B52 Mechanical Refrigeration Code is revised every 3 to 5 years, and it's essential to refer to the most current Code on the CSA website.
- The code sections relevant to Power Engineers can be found in the PanGlobal Extract of CSA Standards.
Purpose and Scope
- The CSA B52 Code was developed to minimize the risk of personal injury by providing minimum requirements for the design, construction, installation, inspection, and maintenance of refrigeration systems.
- The code has two purposes:
- To provide for the safe design, construction, installation, operation, and repair of refrigerating and air conditioning equipment and systems, and related equipment.
- To promote uniform requirements among the provinces and territories.
Code Sections
- The scope lists the type of equipment to which this code applies, as well as the equipment to which it does not apply.
- The Reference Publications section lists all the publications referred to by CSA B52.
- The Definitions and Abbreviations section lists and defines terms related to refrigeration and air conditioning equipment.
- The System Selection and Application Requirements section discusses the requirements for system selection and application, including various system classifications.
Technical Committee
- The Technical Committee on Mechanical Refrigeration Code produces the B52 Code, consisting of representatives from:
- Provincial and territorial jurisdictions
- Professional engineers' associations
- Refrigerating and air conditioning institutes
- Other interested groups
