Abstract

This Standard applies to independently operating gas compressor packages designed for installation in accordance with <br>(a) CAN/CSA-B149.1 when used for filling vehicles; or <br>(b) CSA B108 when used for filling gas storage or piping systems.&#160; <br>This Standard applies to independently operating gas compressor packages that are <br>(a) intended to be used for natural gas only; <br>(b) intended for installation only in non-hazardous locations; and <br>(c) designed so as not to create a hazard through leakage.&#160; <br>This Standard applies to gas compressor packages that are <br>(a) certified as a system for the direct fuelling of vehicles. In this package the system includes components necessary to transfer fuel to a vehicle such as breakaway devices, delivery hoses, and fuel transfer nozzles. Nozzles, hose assemblies, and breakaway devices are not interchangeable between the P30 system and other pressure systems; or <br>(b) certified for use with a piping system or to fill gas storage but not connected to a vehicle. In such cases, the certification need not include components such as the breakaway device, delivery hose, or fuel transfer nozzle.&#160; <br>This Standard applies to multiple-hose gas compressor packages and multiple accessories (as covered under the Scope) that form a part of the system.&#160; <br>This Standard applies to compressor packages intended for use on a system voltage of 600 V or less, designed to be used in accordance with the <em>Canadian Electrical Code, Part I</em>.&#160; <br>A compressor package is investigated under this Standard for reliable and safe operation at ambient temperatures of &#8211;40 &#186;C (&#8211;40&#186;F) and the manufacturer's declared maximum ambient temperature rating; this declared rating is not less than 40 &#186;C (104&#186;F).&#160; <br>This Standard is written in SI (metric) units. The yard/pound units in parentheses are for information only.
