Service Highlights:

​

• Comprehensive Safety Evaluation: We conduct thorough safety evaluations for existing ammonia refrigeration systems based on the minimum requirements of ANSI/IIAR 9-2020. Our evaluations help you document that your equipment is designed, maintained, inspected, tested, and operating in a safe manner, even if it was built to older standards.

• Regulatory Compliance: We meet the documentation requirements of Title 40 CFR §68.65(d)(2-3) from the Risk Management Plan (RMP) regulation and Title 29 CFR §1910.119(d)(3)(ii-iii) from the Process Safety Management (PSM) regulation. Our service ensures that your equipment complies with RAGAGEP and adheres to federal safety mandates.
