For Collective Protection the main recommendations of the ammonia leak are:

 1. Fire Fighting System,

2. Fixed Ammonia detection system,

3. Portable Ammonia detection system.

4. Maintenance of environmental concentrations at the lowest possible levels and always lower than the action level limit (according to NR 9), by means of adequate fixed or portable mechanical ventilation;


Implementation of mechanisms for the early detection of leaks, for example the installation of environmental monitors coupled to alarm systems, especially in critical locations of refrigeration systems. Adequate signaling of equipment and piping, the existence of emergency exits kept permanently unobstructed and properly signaled, and the installation of safety showers and eye washers.
