I went back and re-read your reply again and have some more comments. You do say the production area has coils so that means the production area is cooled and if it is to be help at the same temperature as the dock then the open doorway between the dock and the production area is OK. If the two...
Wow! You have some issues. First off I agree with everything the others have posted. Hopoe this additional info helps you some more.
Appears you have ammonia, Right?
3 psig is -21F suction for the ice makers. At 250 BHP the screws each do about 100 TR. The proposed 6" discharge for 2 x 100 TR =...

Does the ASME Code allow the connection to a relief valve for a given pressure vessel to be alternatively placed in the relatively large gas outlet pipe rather than on top of the vessel itself? Many refrigeration systems are being converted from CFC ozone depleting refrigerants to non ODP...
