What is Ammonia?
Ammonia is a colorless gas, with a pungent odor. It is widely used as a refrigerant and for the manufacture of products such as pesticides, fertilizer, plastic and other chemicals. Exposure to ammonia in small amounts can cause irritation to the eyes, nose and throat. At higher levels, ammonia may turn fatal due to throat swelling or chemical burns to the lungs. Ammonia is also highly corrosive. With an increased use of ammonia in recent years as a refrigerant, it is important to ensure worker safety by providing proper safety identification.
Identification of Ammonia Refrigeration Piping and System Components
IIAR Bulletin No. 114 provides uniform guidelines for identyfing ammonia refrigeration piping and system components to promote safety, facilitate maintenance and provide vital information to emergency respoders. The bulletin provides further guidance as follows:
3.1 Piping System
A piping system includes all ammonia refrigerant piping and fittings, hand valves, control valves and other devices that are inclusive to the refrigeration lines. Pipe insulation is also considered part of the piping system. Pipe supports, hangers, brackets or other piping accessories are not considered part of the piping system.
