2nd Public Review of BSR/ASHRAE Addendum d to


ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 161-2007, Air Quality within Commercial Aircraft This proposed addendum adds requirements and information about refrigerants to the standard. These refrigerants are used in vapor-compression refrigeration units and in vapor-compression cooling systems that are used on some aircraft for galley cooling and other applications. Typically, vapor compression systems are not used on aircraft within the scope of this standard for cabin environmental control systems.

2nd Public Review of BSR/ASHRAE Addendum c to


ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 161-2007, Air Quality within Commercial Aircraft Flame retardants are used extensively throughout aircraft for safety reasons, but there are health concerns associated with exposure to some of the chemical compounds used for this purpose. Potential exposure of cabin occupants to these substances may come through dermal contact with materials containing the flame retardants and through inhalation of dust which includes flame retardants. This proposed addendum provides requirements and information about flame retardants to minimize exposure.

ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 161-2007, Air Quality within Commercial Aircraft Standard 135-2010, BACnet - A Data Communication Protocol for Building Automation and Control Networks

This proposed addendum is intended to reflect the fact that at least one new aircraft design does not use bleed air for cabin ventilation and pressurization and that this approach or similar ones offer a way to reduce or eliminate the potential for bleed air contamination from lubricating oil or hydraulic fluid.
