PREFACE
This is the Fifth Edition of the Standard Method of Fire Tests for Air Filter Units, CAN/ULC-S111.
This Edition of the Standard has been formally approved by the ULC Standards Committee on Fire Tests.
This Standard has been developed in compliance with the requirements of Standards Council of Canada (SCC) for accreditation of a Standards Development Organization.
Only metric SI units of measurement are used in this Standard. If a value for measurement is followed by a value in other units in parentheses, the second value may be approximate. The first stated value is the requirement.
In Canada, there are two official languages, English and French. All safety warnings must be in French and English. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some Canadian authorities may require additional markings and/or installation instructions to be in both official languages.
