Transport of equipment containing flammable refrigerants. Attention is drawn to the fact that additional transportation regulations may exist with respect to

equipment containing flammable gas. The maximum number of pieces of equipment or the configuration of the equipment permitted to be transported together

will be determined by the applicable transport regulations.

•

Marking of equipment using signs. Signs for similar appliances used in a work area are generally addressed by local regulations and give the minimum requi-

rements for the provision of safety and/or health signs for a work location. All required signs are to be maintained and employers should ensure that employees

receive suitable and sufficient instruction and training on the meaning of appropriate safety signs and the actions that need to be taken in connection with these

signs. The effectiveness of signs should not be diminished by too many signs being placed together. Any pictograms used should be as simple as possible and

contain only essential details.

•

Disposal of equipment using flammable refrigerants. See national regulations.

•

Storage of equipment/appliances. The storage of the appliance should be in accordance with the applicable regulations or instructions, whichever is more

stringent.

•

Storage of packed (unsold) equipment. Storage package protection should be constructed in such a way 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.
