21、National Standards system in 1973. It is a not-for- profit, nonstatutory, voluntary membership association engaged in standards development and certification activities.CSA Group standards reflect a national consensus of producers and users including manufacturers, consumers, retailers, unions and p
22、rofessional organizations, and governmental agencies. The standards are used widely by industry and commerce and often adopted by municipal, provincial, and federal governments in their regulations, particularly in the fields of health, safety, building and construction, and the environment.Individu
23、als, companies, and associations across Canada indicate their support for CSA Groups standards development by volunteering their time and skills to Committee work and supporting CSA Groups objectives through sustaining memberships. The more than 7000 committee volunteers and the 2000 sustaining memb
24、erships together form CSA Groups total membership from which its Directors are chosen. Sustaining memberships represent a major source of income for CSA Groups standards development activities.CSA Group offers certification and testing services in support of and as an extension to its standards deve

To ensure the integrity of its certification process, CSA Group regularly and continually audits and inspects products that bear the CSA Group Mark.In addition to its head office and laboratory complex in Toronto, CSA Group has regional branch offices in major centres across Cana

Since 1919, CSA Group has developed the necessary expertise to meet its corporate mission: CSA Group is an independent service organization whose mission is to provide an open and effective forum for activities facilitating the exchange of g

28、organizations, representing virtually every technical discipline and every facet of trade and commerce, organized labor and consumer interests, establish and improve the some 10,000 national consensus standards currently approved as American National Standards.ANSI provides that the interests of the
29、 public may have appropriate participation and representation in standardization activity, and cooperates with departments and agencies of U.S. Federal, state and local governments in achieving compatibility between government codes and standards and the voluntary standards of industry and commerce.
30、ANSI represents the interests of the United States in international nontreaty organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The Institute maintains close ties with regional organizations such as the Pacific Are
31、a Standards Congress (PASC) and the Pan American Standards Commission (COPANT). As such, ANSI coordinates the activities involved in the U.S. participation in these groups.ANSI approval of standards is intended to verify that the principles of openness and due process have been followed in the appro
32、val procedure and that a consensus of those directly and materially affected by the standards has been achieved. ANSI coordination is intended to assist the voluntary system to ensure that national standards needs are identified and met with a set of standards that are without conflict or unnecessar

41、ANSI/CSA HGV 4.6.In September 2002, CSA met with the U.S. Department of Energy, Renewable Fuels Group in Washington, D.C. to discuss standards development opportunities in the hydrogen technology area. During this meeting, DOE requested that CSA provide a proposal relating to the development of hydr
42、ogen technology standards and codes in the United States.Industry recognized that an important consideration in the successful commercialization of hydrogen gas as a vehicle fuel was the issue of codes and standards, pertaining to both fueling stations and vehicle fuel system components. CSA underto
43、ok the goal of establishing a program for the development of an organized family of coordinated standards that addresses hydrogen gas vehicles and fueling stations.Industry and CSA recognized there was no standard that addressed safety requirements for manually operated valves for use in gaseous hyd
44、rogen vehicle fueling stations. The development of such a standard was necessary based on industry needs and feedback:a) There were no standards available for hydrogen applications at the 700 bar pressure levels.b) Automotive OEMs driving the application of hydrogen as a fuel for vehicles expressed
45、concern over solutions in demonstration projects in the field.The focus of the manually operated valves for use in gaseous hydrogen vehicle fueling stations standard established performance and safety based requirements for the material, design, manufacture and testing of manually operated valves fo
46、r gaseous hydrogen vehicle fueling stationsCSA has positioned itself as a leader in the fuel cell, hydrogen and natural gas sectors as a Standards Developing Organization (SDO). CSA is aggressively updating and developing national standards, and is playing a major role in the promulgation of US tech
47、nologies nationally. As US TAG Administrator to IEC TC 105 for Fuel Cell Technologies and as US TAG members of ISO TC 197 and ISO TC 22 / SC 25, CSA is facilitating US technology internationally. CSA organized committees to address technical issues in the development of standards which would affect
48、future expansion of the hydrogen industry.The HGV 4.6 manually operated valves for use in gaseous hydrogen vehicle fueling stations standard was processed as an American National Standard in accordance with procedures of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).This is the first edition of t
