Legionella Compliance For The Light Industrial Industry

technician serving light industrial equipmentRegardless of whether your cooling tower is in use for people’s comfort or if it is used in a process, New York makes no distinction in this law. If you maintain a cooling tower within the state you must adhere to the law of maintaining and regulating the systems. ASHRAE 188 was not specifically designed for process cooling, however, it is a guideline and good practice to treat this system the same.

Even one death or one sickness caused by legionella is too much if it is entirely avoidable through testing and proper care. Therefore, it is important for organizations to follow legionella compliance in the light industrial industry. This will help to ensure there is no legionella present in their cooling towers.

What Is Categorized As A Light Industrial Industry?

The light industry encompasses any manufacturing or construction industry that is less capital intensive in products or production equipment than what would be considered heavy industry. Light industries are generally more consumer and business-oriented and mainly produce consumer goods. They are usually producing products for the end-users rather than passing them for use by other industries.

light industrial equipment that needs servicingThis categorizes a wide range of industries. Some of the industrial businesses included in light industries are fast-moving consumer goods, consumer durables, automobiles, energy, consumer electronics, business products, and some construction fields, among a few others. As long as the organization is not capital intensive, which would be considered an organization in heavy industry, then it is included in the light industry.

Why Is Testing For Legionella Required?

When testing for legionella, you are validating whether your maintenance and legionella control efforts are effective or not. Testing confirms the presence or absence of legionella bacteria in your water systems. If there is no legionella percentage, then you are able to have peace of mind until your next testing cycle. If the results confirm there is legionella present in your water systems, then you must quickly take the next steps in your maintenance and control process.

It is important to keep a routine when testing for legionella. By keeping a schedule, you are staying proactive in eliminating the potential growth of legionella in your water systems. This practice can save you money and hassle in the long run. By routinely testing for legionella, you can make sure that your business is staying clear of any potential risk and problems caused by legionella bacteria.
