SR EN 746-3:2003

This Part of EN 746 specifies safety requirements for atmosphere gas systems and their use in industrial thermo-processing equipment and associated plant, including systems for the production of atmosphere gases by reaction inside the thermo-processing equipment. It applies to the supply of atmosphere gases, gaseous and liquid additions to, and their removal from industrial thermo-processing equipment and associated plant, confined to equipment integrated in the thermo-processing and associated plant. This Part of EN 746 also details the anticipated significant hazards associated with atmosphere gas systems and their use in industrial thermo-processing equipment and specifies the appropriate preventative measures for the reduction or elimination of these hazards. This Part of EN 746 does not apply to atmosphere process gases, essential safety equipment, start-up, operation and shut-down of thermo-processing plant for semi-conductor devices for which special additional engineering requirements are necessary. This Part of EN 746 specifies the requirements to be met to ensure
