Stellar, a fully integrated firm focused on design, engineering, construction, and mechanical services worldwide, has published a new e-book about the critical elements of a process safety management (PSM) training program for facilities operating an ammonia refrigeration system.
The e-book, titled “7 Keys to a Compliant PSM Training Program for Ammonia Refrigeration,” outlines important questions a facility’s program should address and questions that trained plant personnel should be able to answer.
Topics covered include:
â—Ź Safety hazards and health considerations
â—Ź Emergency shutdown procedures
â—Ź Addressing deviations from system operating limits
â—Ź Risks and costs of noncompliance with regulatory standards
“Unfortunately, ammonia leaks make the headlines too often,” says Ken Philo, director of PSM compliance at Stellar. “Industrial ammonia refrigeration is a matter of public safety, and facility owners are responsible for ensuring compliance training on their systems. However, some priorities may have taken a backseat these past two years, possibly leaving some plants unsure if their training even meets OSHA’s latest standards—and that can be costly on a number of levels.”
Stellar has unparalleled background and expertise in ammonia refrigeration, serving as a single-source solution for compliance with leading regulatory agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The company’s NH360 PSM software removes the ambiguity and uncertainty about compliance with real-time access to industry-leading PSM resources.
