IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

WARNING: System contains refrigerant under very high pressure.
The system must be serviced by qualified persons only.
1. Transport of equipment containing flammable refrigerants (Annex CC.1)
Compliance with the transport regulations
2. Marking of equipment using signs(Annex CC.2)
Compliance with local regulations
3. Disposal of equipment using flammable refrigerants(Annex CC.3)
Compliance with national regulations
4. Storage of equipment/appliances (Annex CC.4)
The storage of equipment should be in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
5. Storage of packed (unsold) equipment(Annex CC.5)
Storage package protection should be constructed such that mechanical damage to the
equipment inside the package will not cause a leak of the refrigerant charge.
The maximum number of pieces of equipment permitted to be stored together will be
determined by local regulations.
6. Information on servicing(Annex DD.3)
1) Checks to the area
Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are
necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimised. For repair to the refrigerating
system, the following precautions shall be complied with prior to conducting work on the
system.
2) Work procedure
Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimise the risk of a
flammable gas or vapour being present while the work is being performed.
3) General work area
All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the
nature of work being carried out. Work in confined spaces shall be avoided. The area
around the workspace shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the conditions within the area
have been made safe by control of flammable material.
4) Checking for presence of refrigerant
The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during
work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Ensure
that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with flammable
refrigerants, i.e. non-sparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.
5) Presence of fire extinguisher
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any associated parts,
appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry powder or
CO2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.
6) No ignition sources
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system which involves exposing
any pipe work that contains or has contained flammable refrigerant shall use any sources
