12、method of transmitting and storing useful energy for over one hundred years.Experience has shown that the use of compressed air as a utility can be both safe and effective if certain basic safety features and practices are used.However,since compressed air does represent instantly available energy,s
13、erious consequences can result from failure to use these basic safety features and practices.User experience provides a solid basis for safety requirements of air compressor systems.Full information on good practice has not been readily available to all who design,produce,install,operate,or maintain
14、 these systems.Therefore,the BI9 Committee was organized and sponsored by The American Society of Mechanical Engineers in accordance with the rules of the American National Standards Institute.A standing committee will be maintained to review current safety problems and to interpret,where necessary,
15、provisions of this Standard.To promote uniformity,all requests for interpretation and suggestions for revision should be addressed to the Secretary,ASME B 19 Committee,in care of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers,345 East 47th Street,New York,New York 10017.Safety codes and standards are
16、intended to enhance public health and safety.Revisions result from committee consideration of factors such as technological advances,new data,and changing environmental and industry needs.Revisions do not imply that previous editions were inadequate.This Standard,which was approved by the ASME BI9 Committee and by the Sponsor,was approved and adopted as an American National Standard by the American National Standards Institute on August 17,1995.111 Copyright ASME International Provided by IHS un
