correct specification. At all times the manufacturer's maintenance and service guidelines shall
be followed. If in doubt consult the manufacturer's technical department for assistance. The
following checks shall be applied to installations using flammable refrigerants: the charge size
is in accordance with the room size within which the refrigerant containing parts are installed;
the ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed; if an
indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit shall be checked for the presence
of refrigerant; marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible.
Markings and signs that are illegible shall be corrected; refrigeration pipe or components
are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to any substance which
may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless the components are constructed of
materials which are inherently resistant to being corroded or are suitably protected against
being so corroded.
CHECKS TO ELECTRICAL DEVICES
· Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and
component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no
electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the
fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, an adequate
temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment so all
parties are advised.
· Initial safety checks shall include: that capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe
manner to avoid possibility of sparking; that there no live electrical components and wiring
are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system; that there is continuity of earth
bonding.
REPAIRS TO SEALED COMPONENTS
· During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the
equipment being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely
necessary to have an electrical supply to equipment during servicing, then a permanently
operating form of leak detection shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a potentially
hazardous situation.
· Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that by working on electrical
components, the casing is not altered in such a way that the level of protection is affected.
· This shall include damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to
original specification, damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc. Ensure that apparatus is
mounted securely. Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded such that they no
longer serve the purpose of preventing the ingress of flammable atmospheres.
Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications.
· NOTE The use of silicon sealant may inhibit the effectiveness of some types of leak detection
equipment. Intrinsically safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working on them.
REPAIR TO INTRINSICALLY SAFE COMPONENTS
· Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring
that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in
use. Intrinsically safe components are the only types that can be worked on while live in the
presence of a flammable atmosphere. The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replace
components only with parts specified by the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the ignition
of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
