BS EN378 is a safety and environmental standard, published by the European Committee for Standards, CEN. It provides guidance for companies who design, construct, install, operate, maintain and use vapour compression systems for refrigeration, air‐conditioning, heat pumps, chillers and other similar systems.
It is published in four parts, totalling around 180 pages, and covers definitions, design (including manufacturing), installation (including commissioning) and operation (including maintenance requirements).
The IoR guidance notes highlight the most significant changes introduced since the last version was published in 2008.
