In the manufacturing of gas compressor equipment, as in the vast majority of industrial sectors, regulations, legislative requirements, as well as optional regulations or recommendations and national and international regulations apply.

Industry standards

We will only cover optional standards that are used to make it easier to work with specifications, quality, measurement, recording, and manufacturing drawings.
The advantages of international standardization are that they are used in the entire broad aspect from manufacturing, engineering companies, intermediaries, end users, operational, environmental and safety aspects.
The rules become binding when they come into force through legislative application.
