9 Per ASHRAE : 9.8 Positive Displacement Compressor Protection. Every positive displacement compressor with a stop valve in the discharge connection shall be equipped with a pressure-relief device of adequate size and pressure setting, as specified by the compressor manufacturer, to prevent rupture of the compressor or to prevent the pressure from increasing to more than 10% above the maximum allowable working pressure of any other component located in the discharge line between the compressor and the stop valve or in accordance with Section 9.7.5, whichever is larger. The pressure-relief device shall discharge into the low-pressure side of the system or in accordance with Section Exception: Hermetic refrigerant motor-compressors that are listed and have a displacement less than or equal to 50 ft 3 /min (1.42 m 3 /min). The relief device(s) shall be sized based on compressor flow at the following conditions: 1. Compressors in Single-Stage Systems and High-Stage Compressors of Other Systems: Flow shall be calculated based on 50 F (10 C) saturated suction temperature at the compressor suction. 2. Low-Stage or Booster Compressors in Compound Systems: For those compressors that are capable of running only when discharging to the suction of a IRC 2011 All Rights Reserved 9
10 high-stage compressor, flow shall be calculated based on the saturated suction temperature equal to the design operating intermediate temperature. 3. Low-Stage Compressors in Cascade Systems: For those compressors that are located in the lower-temperature stage(s) of cascade systems, flow shall be calculated based on the suction pressure being equal to the pressure setpoint of the pressure-relieving devices that protect the lowside of the stage against overpressure. Exception for items 1, 2, and 3: The discharge capacity of the relief device is allowed to be the minimum regulated flow rate of the compressor when the following conditions are met: a. the compressor is equipped with capacity regulation, b. capacity regulation actuates to minimum flow at 90% of the pressurerelief device setting, and c. a pressure-limiting device is installed and set in accordance with the requirements of Section 9.9. Informative Appendix D describes one acceptable method of calculating the discharge capacity of positive displacement compressor relief devices Pressure vessels shall be protected in accordance with Section 9.7. Pressurerelief devices are acceptable if they either bear a nameplate or are directly marked with a UV or VR symbol signifying compliance with Section VIII of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

12 9.9 Pressure-Limiting Devices When Required. Pressure-limiting devices shall be provided on all systems operating above atmospheric pressure, except that a pressure-limiting device is not required on any factory-sealed system containing less than 22 lb (10 kg) of Group A1 refrigerant that has been listed by an approved, nationally recognized testing laboratory and is so identified Setting. When required by 9.9.1, the maximum setting to which a pressure-limiting device is capable of being readily set by use of the adjusting means provided shall not exceed the design pressure of the high-side of a system that is not protected by a pressure-relief device or 90% of the setting of the pressure-relief device installed on the high-side of a system. The pressure-limiting device shall stop the action of the pressureimposing element at a pressure no higher than this maximum setting. Exception: On systems using non-positive displacement compressors, the maximum setting of the pressure limiting device is not required to be less than the design pressure of the high-side of the system provided the pressure-relief device is (1) located in the low-side and (2) subject to low-side pressure and (3) there is a permanent (un-valved) relief path between the high-side and the low-side of the system Connection. Pressure-limiting devices shall be connected between the pressure-imposing element and any stop valve on the discharge side. There shall be no intervening stop valves in the line leading to the pressurelimiting device. IRC 2011 All Rights Reserved 11

17 Note that the example in ASHRAE Appendix D uses a refrigerant temperature of 50 o F (510 o R) for the analysis. Another possibility that may be more reflective of the actual conditions would be to establish the mass flow conversion based on a saturation temperature at the relieving pressure of 275 psig (250 psig set pressure plus 10% overpressure), which for ammonia at sea level atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psia is approximately 20 o F.

21 C r,plate,hx = minimum required discharge capacity of relief devices (lb m /min of air) f = a factor that depends on the type of refrigerant and whether or not there are combustible materials within 20 ft of the pressure vessel. For ammonia, f=0.5 when no combustible materials are within 20 ft of the vessel and f=1.25 when combustible materials are located within 20 ft of the vessel. L = length of the plate pack (ft) W = width of the plate pack (ft) H = height of the plate pack (ft) IRC 2011 All Rights Reserved 20
22 IIAR states: The required discharge capacity of a pressure relief device for each pressure vessel shall be determined by the following equation: C = 0.5 DL (lb/min) [C = 0.04 DL [kg/s]] where C = required discharge capacity of the relief device, lb air/min [kg/s] D = outside diameter of vessel, ft [m] L = length of vessel, ft [m]. When one pressure relief device is used to protect more than one pressure vessel, the required capacity shall be the sum of the capacities required for each pressure vessel. In the case of a plate heat exchanger, replace the DxL portion of the equation with a term equal to half the overall external surface area in square feet (m 2 ). In the case of a double-pipe condenser, replace the DxL portion of the equation with a term equal to half the overall external surface area in square feet (m 2 ). NOTES: a. When combustible materials are used within 20 ft (6.1 m) of a pressure vessel, the formula becomes C = 1.25 DL [C = 0.1 DL]. b. The formula is based on fire conditions. Other heat sources shall be calculated separately. IRC 2011 All Rights Reserved 21
