This part of ANSI/ASA S3.55/IEC 60318 describes an acoustic coupler for loading an earphone or hearing aid
with a specified acoustic impedance when determining its physical performance characteristics, in the frequency
range 125 Hz to 8 kHz. It is suitable for air conduction hearing aids and earphones, coupled to the ear by means
of ear inserts e.g., ear molds or similar devices. The sound pressure developed by an earphone is not, in general,
the same in the coupler as in a person's ear. However, it can be used as a simple and ready means for the
exchange of specifications and of physical data on hearing aids and for the calibration of specified insert
earphones used in audiometry.

American National Standards Under Continuous Maintenance

The ANSI Essential Requirements: Due Process Requirements for American National Standards provides two options for the
maintenance of American National Standards (ANS): periodic maintenance (see clause 4.7.1) and continuous maintenance (see
clause 4.7.2). Continuous maintenance is defined as follows:
The standard shall be maintained by an accredited standards developer. A documented program for periodic publication of
revisions shall be established by the standards developer. Processing of these revisions shall be in accordance with these
procedures. The published standard shall include a clear statement of the intent to consider requests for change and information
on the submittal of such requests. Procedures shall be established for timely, documented consensus action on each request for
change and no portion of the standard shall be excluded from the revision process. In the event that no revisions are issued for a
period of four years, action to reaffirm or withdraw the standard shall be taken in accordance with the procedures contained in
the ANSI Essential Requirements. The Executive Standards Council (ExSC) has determined that for standards maintained under the
Continuous Maintenance option, separate PINS announcements are not required. The following ANSI Accredited Standards
Developers have formally registered standards under the Continuous Maintenance option.

Proposed Foreign Government Regulations

Call for Comment
U.S. manufacturers, exporters, trade associations, U.S domiciled standards development organizations and conformity
assessment bodies, consumers, or U.S. government agencies may be interested in proposed foreign technical
regulations notified by Member countries of the World Trade Organization (WTO). In accordance with the WTO
Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT Agreement), Members are required to notify to the WTO Secretariat in
Geneva, Switzerland proposed technical regulations that may significantly affect trade. In turn, the Secretariat circulates
the notifications along with the full texts. The purpose of the notification requirement is to provide global trading
partners with an opportunity to review and comment on the regulations before they become final. The USA Enquiry
Point for the WTO TBT Agreement is located at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the
Standards Coordination Office (SCO). The Enquiry Point relies on the WTO’s ePing SPS&TBT platform to distribute the
notified proposed foreign technical regulations (notifications) and their full texts available to U.S. stakeholders.
Interested U.S. parties can register with ePing to receive e-mail alerts when notifications are added from countries and
industry sectors of interest to them. The USA WTO TBT Enquiry Point is the official channel for distributing U.S.
comments to the network of WTO TBT Enquiry Points around the world. U.S. business contacts interested in
commenting on the notifications are asked to review the comment guidance prior to submitting comments. For non-
notified foreign technical barriers to trade for non-agricultural products, stakeholders are encouraged to reach out as
early as possible to the Office of Trade Agreements Negotiations and Compliance (TANC) in the International Trade
Administration (ITA) at the Department of Commerce (DOC), which specializes in working with U.S. stakeholders to
remove unfair foreign government-imposed trade barriers. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Foreign Agricultural
Service actively represents the interests of U.S. agriculture in the WTO committees on Agriculture, Sanitary and
Phytosanitary (SPS) measures and Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT). FAS alerts exporters to expected changes in foreign
regulations concerning food and beverage and nutrition labeling requirements, food packaging requirements, and
various other agriculture and food related trade matters. Working with other Federal agencies and the private
sector, FAS coordinates the development and finalization of comments on measures proposed by foreign governments
to influence their development and minimize the impact on U.S. agriculture exports. FAS also contributes to the
negotiation and enforcement of free trade agreements and provides information about tracking regulatory changes
by WTO Members. The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) WTO & Multilateral Affairs (WAMA)
office has responsibility for trade discussions and negotiations, as well as policy coordination, on issues related technical
barriers to trade and standards-related activities.

BSR/ASHRAE Addendum h to ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.2-2022, Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality in
Residential Buildings
First Public Review Draft
(This foreword is not part of this standard. It is merely informative and does not contain requirements
necessary for conformance to the standard. It has not been processed according to the ANSI requirements
for a standard and may contain material that has not been subject to public review or a consensus process.
Unresolved objectors on informative material are not offered the right to appeal at ASHRAE or ANSI.)
FOREWORD
This addendum would add language in the scope to describe that IAQ may be unacceptable even if all
requirements are met, because of contaminant transport from adjacent spaces. The proposed addition is to
recognize the impact of adjacent spaces on dwelling unit IAQ.
[Note to Reviewers: This addendum makes proposed changes to the current standard. These changes are
indicated in the text by underlining (for additions) and strikethrough (for deletions) except where the reviewer
instructions specifically describe some other means of showing the changes. Only these changes to the current
standard are open for review and comment at this time. Additional material is provided for context only and is
not open for comment except as it relates to the proposed changes.]
Addendum h to 62.2-2022
Revise Section 2 Scope as shown below.
1. PURPOSE
This standard defines the roles and minimum requirements for mechanical and natural ventilation systems and
other measures intended to provide acceptable indoor air quality (IAQ) in individual dwelling units.
2. SCOPE
This standard applies to dwelling units in residential occupancies in which the occupants are nontransient.
2.1 This standard considers chemical, physical, and biological contaminants that can affect air quality. Thermal
comfort requirements are not included in this standard.
Informative Note: See ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy,
for thermal comfort requirements.
2.2 While acceptable IAQ is the goal of this standard, it will not necessarily be achieved even if all requirements
are met
a. because of the diversity of sources and contaminants in indoor air and the range of susceptibility in the
population;
b. because of the many other factors that may affect occupant perception and acceptance of IAQ, such as air
temperature, humidity, noise, lighting, and psychological stress;
c. if the ventilation air is unacceptable and this air is brought into the dwelling unit without first being cleaned;
d. because of contaminant transport from adjacent spaces;
d. e. if the system or systems are not operated and maintained as designed; or
e. f. when high-polluting events occur.

BSR/ASHRAE/ASHE Addendum a to ANSI/ASHRAE/ASHE Standard 189.3-2021, Design, Construction, and Operation of

Sustainable High-Performance Health Care Facilities
Third Public Review Draft (Independent Substantive Change)
necessary for conformance to the standard. It has not been processed according to the ANSI requirements for
a standard and may contain material that has not been subject to public review or a consensus process.
FOREWORD
This addendum addresses the issue presented by patients or residents being in beds, chairs, or required fixed positions
that would make it difficult to look up or out to gain the view fenestration. Additionally, it adjusts the line-of-sight
distance for the additional area generally utilized in assisted living facilities. However, proximity of staff to the patient
and the typical arrangement of the nurse station to the patients is in conflict, as that would be considered an office.
This provides the flexibility to the design professional to arrange for the best patient care. Providing staff views to the
exterior is strongly encouraged whenever possible.
Note: This third public review draft makes proposed independent substantive changes to the second public review
draft. These changes are indicated in the text by underlining (for additions) and strikethrough (for deletions) except
where the reviewer instructions specifically describe some other means of showing the changes. Only these changes
to the previous public review draft are open for review and comment at this time. Additional material is provided for
context only and is not open for comment except as it relates to the proposed changes.
Addendum a to Standard 189.3-2021

Revise Section 8 as shown. The remainder of Section 8 is unchanged.

necessary for conformance to the standard. It has not been processed according to the ANSI requirements for
a standard and may contain material that has not been subject to public review or a consensus process.
FOREWORD
This proposed addendum updates the publication years of several referenced standards to the most current editions.
Several hospitals in the northwestern United States have studied the clinical use of nitrous oxide in comparison to the
purchase and found significant (approximately 90%) waste from the central supply system (liquid or compressed gas).
Nitrous oxide is regarded as the predominant greenhouse gas for the 21st century. Nitrous oxide has a global warming
potential (GWP) 300 times that of CO2 and persist in the atmosphere for 114 years. Once common use for anesthesia,
the demand for N2O has waned considerably with the advent of new anesthetics and changes in practice. Some
facilities continue to use N2O for self-administered conscious sedation during childbirth or for pain control in
emergency departments.

NSF/ANSI Standard
for Food Equipment –
Commercial Warewashing Equipment

•
6 Performance
6.4 Rinse Effectiveness
6.4.1 Performance Requirement
When operated in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions, the rinse spray shall remove the challenge
test mixture described in Normative Annex 3 from the plates.
6.4.2 Application
The following models are not required to be subjected to this test:

a) Dump and fill,
b) Pot, Pan & Utensil,
c) Glasswasher,
d) Bottlewashers,
e) Multiple tank rack conveyor,
f) Rackless conveyor.
Rationale: These models are not typically subject to poor rinsability due to soil redeposition since;
• Dump and Fill machines discharge all wash water after each cycle.
• Pot, Pan and Utensil machines are mostly used for washing ware that is then used to cook or
prepare food for the cooking process,
• Glasswashers and bottle washers are not usually encumbered with excessive food soil,
• Multiple tank rack conveyor models have an extra power rinse tank to help remove redeposit, and
• Rackless conveyor machines are usually provided with large tanks and are not often subject to soil
redeposition
6.4.3 Test Method
a) The rinse effectiveness of dishwashing machines shall be evaluated by observing the machine’s
rinse ability to remove the challenge test mixture, which is intended to mimic soil redeposition from
wash water.
NSF Confidential
b) The warewashing machine shall be operated with only the final rinse in operation. Auxiliary rinses
(if equipped) shall also be operational during evaluation.
c) The challenge test mixture and plates (Corelle Winter Frost White or equivalent) shall be prepared
in accordance with Normative Annex 3.
d) The dishwashing machine shall be conditioned in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions
to the manufacturer’s specified pressures and temperatures.
e) The rinse cycle shall be tested at a pressure of 20 ± 2.0 psi or the manufacturer’s specified pressure
± 2.0 psi, if applicable. Does not apply to models with pumped rinse. The final rinse temperature
must be no more than 2° F (1° C) above the nameplate minimum.
f) A rack of challenge test mixture coated plates shall be tested through one rinse cycle.
g) The plates shall be inspected for residual challenge test mixture in a darkroom using a long wave
UV light with a nominal wavelength of 366 ± 30 nm and a UV radiant intensity of 480 mW ± 30 mW.
The UV light source shall have a UV irradiance of 2200 uW / cm2 and be placed no greater than 24
in (61 cm) from the plates.
Note – The UV light specifications described here have been demonstrated to fluoresce the Fluorescein in the
challenge test mixture. Other lights capable of fluorescing the Fluorescein may be used.
h) The top surface of the plates only shall be evaluated in accordance with this procedure. Any
challenge test mixture remaining on the back shall be disregarded.
6.4.4 Acceptance Criteria
The top surface of the three test plates shall be free of visible challenge test mixture when observed using
the UV light.
The presence of residual challenge test mixture is not grounds for immediate test failure. In the case of
residual challenge test mixture on any or all of the plates, the test shall be repeated on a new set of plates
per section 6.4.2.
.
Normative Annex 3 – Ingredients and Procedure for Rinse Effectiveness Challenge Test Mixture
The following procedure describes the preparation and execution of challenge test mixture to be used in
the evaluation of rinse effectiveness of commercial warewashing machines.
N-3.1 Ingredients
— Xanthan gum powder (Lab Quality, CAS #11138-66-2) – 0.18 oz (5.0 g)

— Distilled Water – 5.0 gal (19.2 L) at 70° ± 5° F (21° ± 3° C)
— Fluorescein, water soluble (CAS #518-47-8) – 0.004 oz (0.1 g)
NSF Confidential
N-3.1 Preparation Procedure
Thoroughly mix xanthan gum and approximately 0.26 gal (1.0 L) distilled water first with a handheld blender
in a beaker to homogenize the mixture completely.
Add above mixture to remaining distilled water and Fluorescein and mix with a handheld blender until
completely blended. This may take several minutes.
Allow this mixture to rest for 2 h at room temperature.
Briefly stir the mixture again prior to application to the test plates to ensure consistent blend of ingredients.
Prior to application of the Challenge Test Mixture, the plates shall be washed and rinsed five times in a hot
water sanitizing dishmachine without detergent or rinse aid and dried.
Immediately prior to the application of the challenge test mixture, the mixture shall be stirred for one minute
with a drill and stirrer attachment.
Plates shall be dipped in the mixture until completed submerged and placed on a peg type rack. Three
plates positioned according to Figure 6 shall be used for each test. In a dark room, use the UV light to
verify the presence of the challenge mixture on the plates.
The rack of test plates shall be subjected to one rinse cycle.
Once the rinse is complete, in a dark room using the UV light according to the performance testing
procedures, verify the presence of any remaining challenge test mixture on the front of the plates. This
evaluation must take place within 5 minutes of cycle completion.

5.7 Chlorine resistance – Oxidative equivalency requirements
For a material that already has a chlorine resistance classification (denoted original material), oxidative
equivalency is required on pipe or material comprised of a different color from the original material or
when the production site differs from that of the original material. When the pipe or material production
site differs from that of the original material, a minimum of one color shall be selected from the production
site being assessed.
This requirement does not apply to changes in color of an external, coextruded polymer layer which is
separate and distinct from the pipe polymer matrix.
Qualified pipe shall meet the minimum requirements of Sections 5.7.1, and 5.7.2 or 5.7.3.
Rationale: Section 5.7.3 was incorporated in the 2022 version of NSF/ANSI 14, but this language was not
updated to reflect the additional section.

Normative Annex 1
(formerly Annex A)
Materials review and qualification methods
N-1.1 Purpose
The purpose of these methods is to document that the materials used in contact with pool or spa / hot tub
(product) water do not impart undesirable levels of contaminants or color to the product water.
It is recognized that the product water is not intended for human consumption; that it is not feasible or
cost-effective to identify every contaminant that might be contributed to the product water; and that there
may not be complete toxicological information available on each contaminant identified. Therefore, these
methods are designed to:
—determine from the material formulation those contaminants of toxicological concern likely to be
contributed to the product water;
—determine the general level of contaminants contributed to the product water by the material, using
screening tests; and
—determine the levels of specific contaminants, particularly regulated metals and organics, contributed
to the product water by the material.
N-1.2 Formulation review

Where required for conformance to Section 4.1, complete material formulation information shall be reviewed
to determine whether a material is suitable for contact with the product water, to assess the potential for
contaminants to be contributed to the product water from the material, to determine whether extraction
testing is warranted, and to select the appropriate extraction testing parameters.
Page 1 of 4
The complete formulation information may be omitted for a component material if:
—the generic material type is contained in NSF/ANSI/CAN 61, Table 3.1, and the material is not a
coating or filtration media, and the material is tested to the requirements of NSF/ANSI/CAN, Table 3.1;
or
—if the material is not listed in NSF/ANSI/CAN 61, Table 3.1 and the material is not a coating or filtration
media, and the material is tested to the requirements of NSF 61/ANSI/CAN, Table 3.2.
N-1.3 Exposure testing

N-1.3.1 General description
When extraction testing is warranted based on a material formulation, a multiple exposure procedure shall
be followed. Under this procedure, material samples shall be submerged for specific durations in water
having defined characteristics (exposure water). Upon completion of the exposures, the water (extraction
water) shall be analyzed for the selected contaminants of concern. The contaminant concentrations
observed shall be normalized to represent exposure conditions in the field. The normalized concentration
(estimated exposure level or remove this statement) shall be compared to an established maximum
contaminant level or a level of toxicological concern for drinking water. Chemical feeders and generators
may be tested according to the requirements of NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 utilizing tap water and the
manufacturer’s recommended chemicals, or specific components requiring testing may be evaluated to this
Annex.
Alternately, multiple materials warranting extraction testing may be exposed in the finished product by filling
the product with exposure water described in N-1.3.3. Multiple water changes shall occur per the schedule
in N-1.3.4. Contaminant concentrations observed shall be normalized to represent exposure conditions in
the field.
N-1.3.2 Selection of parameters for exposure testing
The selection of potential contaminants for which testing is warranted shall be based on the review of the
material formulation, the toxicological significance of the ingredients, and the likelihood of their migration.
Analysis for phenolic substances and total organic carbon (TOC) may be used as screening tests to
determine whether additional testing is warranted for specific potential contaminants. Exposure testing may
also be conducted to determine whether a material may impart color to water.
If the formulation has been omitted for a component material as allowed through Section N-1.2, testing shall
include the material specific analyses in NSF/ANSI/CAN 61, Table 3.1, or as directed in
NSF/ANSI/CAN 61. Table 3.2. Specific analysis shall be modified such that nitrosamines, when required
for a material, shall be analyzed using EPA Method 625.
N-1.3.3 Exposure water
The condition of exposure water shall be based on the nature of the contaminant of concern. Exposure
water having the following characteristics shall be prepared (note that parameters, especially temperature,
may change during the exposure period):
Extraction of metals /
inorganics / organics
Page 2 of 4
pH range 7.2 to 7.4

chlorine 2.0 ± 0.2 mg/L
hardness (as CaCO3) 150 ± 10 mg/L
temperature 100 ± 10 °F (38 ± 5 °C)
N-1.3.4 Exposure conditions
Samples shall be exposed to exposure water in three successive intervals according to the following schedule:
1 24 ± 1 h
2 24 ± 1 h
3 72 ± 4 h
After each of the first two exposure periods, the extraction water shall be discarded, and the sample
exposed to fresh exposure water. The extraction water from the third exposure interval shall be analyzed
for the selected contaminants. All exposures shall be conducted at an ambient air temperature of
73 ± 3 °F (23 ± 2 °C).
N-1.3.5 Ratio of sample surface area to exposure water volume
When material or component samples are evaluated the ratio of the sample surface area to the volume of
exposure water shall be 1,000 in2 (6,500 cm2) to 1 gal (4 L) ), or as near as is reasonably achievable.
Materials exposed in the finished product shall be exposed at the normally wetted field surface area. The
volume of exposure water shall be the volume of the product. Product samples that are connected to pipe
or tubing under normal installation conditions shall be sealed or covered with inert materials (e.g. glass,
teflon), and left open to the air if normally installed open to the air. In-product exposure shall ensure all
bubbles and air pockets are removed prior to beginning the test.
Filtration and adsorption medias shall be exposed at the manufacturer’s recommended use ratio of weight
of media per unit void volume.
Precoat media shall be exposed at 10 times the manufacturer’s recommended use ratio.
N-1.3.6 Analytical methods
Analyses of extraction water shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures in the following:
—APHA/AWWA/WEF, Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater;5
—U.S. EPA-600/4-79-020, Methods for Chemical Analysis of Water and Wastes;
 US EPA-600/4-84-053. Methods for Organic Chemical Analysis of Municipal and Industrial

Wastewater;
—U.S. EPA, Methods for the Determination of Organic Compounds in Drinking Water, Supplement 1;
or
Page 3 of 4
—U.S. EPA, Methods for the Determination of Inorganic Substances in Environmental Samples.
N-1.3.7 Normalization
The normalized extraction level for a contaminant shall be calculated by:
CF = CL (SAF / VF) (VL / SAL)
where:
CF = contaminant concentration in field

CL = contaminant concentration in lab
SAF = surface area of material in the field (units in the field)
SAL = surface area of material in the lab (units in the lab)
VF = volume of water in the field
VL = volume of water in the lab
If the surface area to volume ratio in the field is not known, then the normalized extraction level is calculated
by dividing the concentration in the extraction water by a factor of 10. shall be calculated using a SAF of
25in2/L. This is based on the assumption that the worst-case surface area to volume ratio of the material is
will not exceed 25 in2/L.
In-product exposures shall be normalized to 1 unit in the field and 1 unit in the lab, unless the product is
typically used in multiples when installed in the field. Then the number of units found in the field shall be
used to normalize the concentration. The field volume shall default to 200 liters (53 gal) for spa end use,
and 15,000 liters (3,960 gal) for pool end use. Larger field volumes may be utilized for normalization when
supported by end use application. If the in-product exposure is for a float tank, stand-alone hot tub, or other
product that contains the entirety of the recreational water, then the field volume shall be the operating
water capacity of that product.
NOTE – The default field volumes are conservative scenarios that are intended to cover a variety of field
installations. If multiple units are used together only on very large installations, then a single unit
evaluated to the minimum field volumes would serve as a more conservative scenario for evaluation.
All medias shall be normalized to the manufacturer’s recommended use ratio.
N-1.3.8 Acceptance criteria
The normalized extraction concentration of a potential contaminant shall not exceed the total acceptable
concentration (TAC) established by NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 600. Compounds detected via GC/MS analysis
which cannot be identified using authentic standards or commercially available mass spectral libraries shall
not be used to determine compliance to NSF/ANSI/CAN 50.
The color rating of the extraction water, as determined in accordance with Standard Methods5 2120B, shall
not exceed that of the exposure water (control).
Certification listings and manufacturer’s literature for swimming pool materials (excluding components and
devices) shall contain surface area to volume restrictions associated with the evaluation.

Reagent water shall be produced through one or more of the following treatment processes: distillation,
reverse osmosis, ion exchange, or other equivalent treatment processes. The reagent water shall have the
following general water characteristics:
— electrical resistivity, minimum 18 MΩ-cm at 25 °C (77 °F); and

— total organic carbon (TOC) maximum 100 μg/L.
For each specific analytes of interest, the reagent water shall not contain the target analyte at a
concentration greater than half the designated analytical report limit of that analyte. If trace organic
contaminants may be present at levels greater than half the designated analytical report limit of that target
analyte, it is permissible to treat the reagent water with TOC destructive UV (185 nm) to reduce those
contaminants to acceptable concentrations. This UV treatment often results in a decrease in electrical
resistivity of the reagent water to below 18 MΩ-cm, which is allowed in this circumstance. When reagent
water fails to meet acceptable criteria for target analytes, test results may be acceptable when background
contamination does not impact evaluation to health effects criteria under NSF/ANSI/CAN 600.

Rationale: Adds language to allow test labs to determine whether trace amounts of a given

2473 lead to 3/2 or 4/3 (4 makes 3) distributed redundancy. Any number of redundancy is possible in
2474 this case, but the higher the N value, the more complex the system.
2475 D.2.8 Concurrent maintainability and testing capability
2476 Concurrent maintainability means that planned maintenance can be performed with the following
2477 assumptions:
2478 Safely which means system or components in de-energized state.
2479 Redundancy and therefore, resiliency is reduced during maintenance.
2480 Entire maintenance process does not interrupt or impact operation of critical loads
2481 The facilities shall be capable of being maintained, upgraded, and tested without interruption to
2482 the ICT load. Concurrent maintainability extends beyond simply having redundant components
2483 and pathways. It also includes the ability to perform such maintenance without risk of harm to the
2484 engineers servicing the components. More important than the redundancy, personal safety
2485 comes first. While under maintenance, the work environment shall reduce risk of injury to
2486 personnel by ensuring that any path or component under maintenance can be isolated (removed)
2487 from the system.
2488 Isolation shall be achieved by providing isolation components within the system. Electrically, this
2489 may be breakers, isolators, fuses, switches, etc. At higher voltages, (which are common in data
2490 centers), providing separation of compartments (such as Form 2B, Form 3B) within panels is also
2491 required to prevent risk of injury to maintenance personnel from accidental contact with energized
2492 circuits, which could cause injury, or death as well as potential damage to the system and a total
2493 cascading failure of the data center.
2494 In mechanical systems, isolation may be achieved by repositioning valves, levers, handles,
2495 dampers, etc.
2496 Isolating pathways or components by removing their leads, connectors, anchors, screws, bolts,
2497 are not accepted, and shall constitute a failure to achieve concurrent maintainability.
2498 In addition, if the environment is unsafe due to hazards such as spilled fuel, oil, toxic fumes, water
2499 (especially near energized electrical systems), exposure to falling more than 600 mm (2 ft) (use of
2500 ladders, scaffolding, maintenance platforms, etc. are acceptable, with proper safety in place,
2501 including visual and physical barriers where needed is permitted). Working in environments
2502 which meet any of the aforementioned conditions shall constitute a failure of concurrent
2503 maintainability.
2504 D.2.9 Fault tolerant

2505 Fault tolerance shall allow for any fault (failure) of a single component or pathway to occur,
2506 without resulting in a loss of protected ICT loads. The system shall be able to maintain N
2507 capacity to all redundant systems and pathways during any such event.
2508 The use of automation on a majority of systems will be required to achieve such results,
2509 particularly the use of motorized valves in systems which transport liquids (water cooling, fuel
2510 supply). The autonomy of the system shall match that of the fuel supply of the standby power
2511 system.
2512 In addition to the requirements for fault tolerance, the elements of concurrent maintainability
2513 described in D.2.8 shall also be met.
2514 D.2.10 Capacity and scalability

2515 Data centers and support infrastructure should be designed to accommodate future growth with
2516 little or no disruption to services.

BSR/UL 155, Standard for Tests for Fire Resistance of Vault and File Room Doors
1. Proposed Changes to Classes and Double Doors
PROPOSAL
5.1 Vault doors classified as to 1-, 1.5-, 2-, 4-, and 6-hour fire resistance are effective in withstanding:
a) Standardized fire exposures for the periods indicated without exceeding a temperature of 350°F
(177°C) during or after the fire exposure, 2 inches (51 mm) from the unexposed face, when installed
in accordance with instructions accompanying the door; and
b) Application of a standard hose stream and reheating for one-half of the classification period
without destroying the usability of papers or record form papers stored in the vault.
See 6.2 and 6.3 for specifications.
8.3.2.A When testing double doors, an additional thermocouple is to be located at one-half the vertical
height of the meeting edge, spaced 2 inches (51 mm) from the unexposed door faces.
2. Update to Furnace Temperatures
PROPOSAL
8.3 Unexposed Surface Temperature Measurement
8.3.4 The temperatures of the test exposure are to be deemed to be the average temperature obtained
from the readings of not less than nine thermocouples symmetrically disposed and distributed to show the
temperature near all parts of the test assembly. The thermocouples are to be protected by sealed porcelain
tubes having 3/4 inch (19.1 mm) outside diameter and 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) wall thickness or, as an alternate,
in the case of base-metal thermocouples, protected by 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) wrought-steel or wrought-iron
pipe of standard weight. The junction of the thermocouples is to be 2 inches (51 mm) from the exposed
face of the test assembly or from the masonry in which the assembly is installed, during the entire test
exposure.
8.3.5 The temperatures are to be read at intervals not exceeding 5 minutes during the first 2 hours, and
thereafter the intervals may be increased to not more than 10 minutes.
8.3.6 The accuracy of the furnace control is to be such that the area under the time-temperature curve,
obtained by averaging the results from the thermocouple readings, is within 10 percent of the corresponding
area under the standard time-temperature curve in Figure 8.2 for fire tests of 1 hour or less duration, within
7.5 percent for those over 1 hour and not more than 2 hours, and within 5 percent for tests exceeding 2
hours in duration.
8.3.A Furnace Temperatures
8.3.A.1 The temperatures of the test exposure shall be the average temperature obtained by a minimum of
three thermocouples and no fewer one thermocouple per 15 square feet of test assembly exposed to the
furnace symmetrically disposed and distributed to show the temperature near all parts of the test assembly.
The thermocouple assembly is to consist of a thermocouple protected by a sealed porcelain tube having a
3/4 inch (19.1 mm) outside diameter and 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) wall thickness or, a base-metal thermocouple,
protected by: (1) sealed 1/2-inch (12.7-mm) wrought-steel or wrought-iron pipe of standard weight or (2)
Inconel 600 series schedule 40 pipe (0.8 inch OD / 0.6 inch ID, 20 mm OD / 15 mm ID). The end of the
thermocouple assembly is to be initially located 2 inches (152 mm) from the exposed face of the test
assembly or from the construction in which the door assembly is installed. During the fire exposure, if the
movement of the test sample causes the sample's distance to the end of the thermocouple assembly to
vary, the end of the thermocouple assembly is to be reset to 2 inches (152 mm) at intervals not exceeding
10 minutes during the first 30 minutes of the test. Thereafter, the intervals are to be increased to not more
than 30 minutes.
8.3.A.2 The temperatures are to be recorded at intervals not exceeding 1 minute.
8.3.A.3 The accuracy of the furnace control is to be such that the area under the time-temperature curve
shown in Figure 8.3, obtained by averaging the results from the thermocouple readings, is within 10 percent
of the corresponding area under the standard time-temperature curve for fire tests of 1 hour or less duration
or during the first hour of multi-hour tests, 7.5 percent in the first 2 hours of multi-hour tests, and within 5
percent for tests exceeding 2 hours in duration.
3. Proposed Addition of Furnace Pressure Testing
PROPOSAL
8.3.B Furnace Pressure
8.3.B.1 Furnace pressures are to be read at intervals not exceeding 1 minute.
8.3.B.2 The neutral plane within the test furnace shall be established prior to the initiation of the fire test.
Such pressure shall remain constant or increase to maintain the neutral plane upon initiation of the fire test.
Control of the furnace pressure is to be established beginning no later than 5 minutes after the start of the
test and is to be maintained throughout the remainder of the fire test.
8.3.B.3 The vertical pressure distribution within the furnace is to be measured by at least two pressure-
sensing probes separated by a minimum vertical distance of 6 ft (1.8 m) inside the furnace for furnaces with
a minimum vertical dimension of 10 ft (3.05 m). Minimum vertical separation between pressure probes is to
be reduced proportionally for furnaces with an internal dimension less than 10 ft (3.05 m).
8.3.B.4 The pressure-sensing probes are to be as shown in either Figure 8.3 or Figure 8.4 The probes are
to be located so that the center line of the sensing holes are positioned 6 ±1 in (152 ±2.5 mm) from the
surface of the exposed face of the test assembly and a minimum of 18 in (457 mm) from the edges of the
furnace. The probes are to be positioned horizontally in the furnace without a change in vertical elevation
of the probes or tubing within the furnace.

8.3.B.5 The pressure-sensing probes are to be located at a minimum of 18 inches from the edges of the
furnace chamber.
8.3.B.6 The pressure at each location is to be measured using a differential pressure instrument capable
of reading in increments no greater than 0.01 inch water gauge (2.5 Pa) with an accuracy of ±0.005 inch
water gauge (±1.2 Pa) or better. The differential pressure measurement instrument is to be located so as
to minimize stack effects caused by vertical runs of pressure tubing between the pressure-sensing probes
and the differential pressure measurement instrument locations.
8.3.B.7 Based on the vertical separation and pressure differences between the two pressure-sensing
probes, a calculation of the zero pressure plane is to be made. The furnace pressure is to be positive above
the zero pressure plane.
8.4 Test Method
3. Update to Fire-Hose Stream Test and Proposed Annex B Addition
PROPOSAL
9 Fire-Hose Stream – Reheat Test
9.1 A second sample of each door assembly tested is to be exposed to the standard fire conditions similar
to those of the Fire Endurance Test, Section 8. The sample is to be exposed for one-half the period for
which classification is desired. The wall carrying the sample is then to be removed from the furnace
combustion chamber and a standard 1-1/8 inch (29 mm) stream of water immediately applied from a
distance of 20 feet (6 m) to the heated face of the sample for 1 minute. Immediately after to within 5 minutes
from the termination of the fire endurance test, the test assembly is to be subjected to the impact, erosion,
and cooling effects of a hose stream directed first at the bottom center of the assembly and then at all parts
of the exposed surface. The hose stream is to be applied, with a smooth steady movement of the hose at
a rate to ensure that all parts of the test assembly are impacted by the hose stream. When all parts of the
test assembly have been impacted by the hose stream, the application pattern is to be reversed. See
Annex B for a description of the pattern.
9.1.A Deliver the hose stream through a 2-1/2-inch (64.5-mm) hose discharging through a National
Standard Playpipe of corresponding size equipped with a 1-1/8-inch (28.6-mm) discharge tip of the
standard-taper, smooth-bore pattern without shoulder at the orifice. The minimum water pressure at the
base of the nozzle and the minimum duration of application in seconds per square foot (s/m 2) of exposed
area is to be as prescribed in Table 9.1.
9.1.B The tip of the nozzle is to be located a maximum of 20 feet (6 m) from and on a line normal to the
center of the test door. When it is not possible to be so located, the nozzle is to be on a line deviating not
more than 30 degrees from the line normal to the center of the test door. When so located, the distance
from the center is to be less than 20 feet (6 m) by an amount equal to 1 foot (0.3 m) for each 10 degrees of
deviation from the normal.

1-hour and over when less than 1-1/2-hour 30 207 0.9 10
Less than 1 hour 30 207 0.6 6
NOTE – The exposed area shall be calculated using the outside dimensions of the test specimen, including a frame, hangers, tracks, or other parts of the
assembly when provided, and normally not including the wall into which the specimen is mounted. Where multiple test specimens are mounted in the same
wall, the rectangular or square wall area encompassing all of the specimens is identified as the exposed area since the hose stream must traverse this area
during its application.
Appendix Annex A (Normative)
Annex B (Normative)
B1 Hose Stream Pattern
B1.1 The hose stream is to be played over the test sample starting at the bottom center and then at all
parts changing directions slowly. Figure B1 shows the typical pattern for one type of assembly, pairs of
swinging doors. The pattern is capable of being mirrored, reversed, or otherwise modified to accommodate
samples of various sizes and shapes.
