NFPA87

Help minimize fire risks and explosion hazards for fluid Heaters to safeguard people and property.

NFPA 87, Standard for Fluid Heaters, addresses safety requirements in industrial environments across the board: textile drying, pressboard manufacturing, gas sweetening, chemical synthesis, plastic molding, hot galvanizing, laminating, dry cleaning, and food processing. This standard offers rules for location and construction, heating systems, commissioning and operations, heating system safety equipment and application, and the maintenance, inspection, and testing of fluid heaters.

The 2024 edition includes:

  • Significantly reorganized documentation and added annex material
  • New Chapter 10, Fluid Circuit Safety Logic and Interlock Application
  • Added definition and requirements for quiescent bath heaters
  • Increased flange requirements
