Preface
This is the fifth edition of CSA B149.3, On-Site Approval Code for Fuel Components for Appliances and Appliances, and replaces previous editions published in 2010, 2005 and 2000 by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). ) as CAN / CSA-B149.3 and in 1989 by the Canadian Gas Association (CGA) as CAN / CGA-B149.3.
This code includes, for convenience, the relevant requirements for equipment and equipment previously found in CSA B149.1 and B149.2.
In this 2015 edition, any significant changes or additions to an article, table, or figure in the previous edition of the code are indicated by the delta symbol in the margin. It should be noted that the indications of change are general and are given for information only; they are not a comprehensive guide to code changes. Therefore, do not rely solely on indications of change to recognize the new requirements. As in past years, the code must be respected as a whole without forgetting the local requirements.
The CSA B149 Installation Code Committee, which is responsible for developing the English version of this code, is made up of representatives of gas inspection authorities, natural gas utilities, propane distributors, equipment and accessories, certification bodies as well as representatives of the Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Institute of Canada, the Mechanical Contractors Association of Canada and federal government departments.
The French version of this code was prepared by CSA Group based on the English edition published in August 2015, which was approved by the CSA B149 On-site Approval of the Fuel Cylinder Responsive Technical Committee. .
This Code sets out the requirements for fuel components and accessories and their installation in an appliance that uses gas downstream of the manual shutoff valve referred to in Clause 6.18.2 of CSA B149.1. Chapter 13 of this Code sets out the additional requirements for process furnaces, including bakery ovens, process furnaces and atmosphere generators operating at or near atmospheric pressure and used by industry in the treatment process. subjects. The recommended requirements for solid and liquid fuel appliances are set out in Annex H (liquids) and Annex I (solids).

a) marine terminal or pipeline facilities
(b) gas used as a raw material in petroleum refineries or chemical plants
(c) bulk stations for the storage and handling of liquefied petroleum gas
(d) natural gas for motor vehicles
e) a new device that has an approved standard
(f) a manually operated appliance with a heat input of not more than 20 000 BTU / h (6 kW) for industrial use
