Make sure that the seals or sealing materials are not degraded and no
longer suitable for preventing the infiltration of flammable gases. Spare
parts must comply with the manufacturer's specifications. Replace
components only with parts specified by the manufacturer; other parts
could cause the refrigerant to ignite in the atmosphere due to a leak.
Using silicone sealant can inhibit the effectiveness of some types of
leak detection.
The intrinsically safe components must not be isolated before working
on them; they are the only ones on which it is possible to work in a
flammable atmosphere.
Do not apply permanent inductive or capacitive loads to the circuit
without making sure that this does not exceed the voltage and current
allowed for the equipment in use. Check that the wiring is not subject to
wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges or other
adverse environmental agents. The control must also consider the
effects of ageing or continuous vibrations from sources such as
compressors or fans.
Under no circumstances should potential sources of ignition be used to
search for or detect refrigerant leaks. Any detector that uses an open
flame must not be used.
The equipment must be labelled stating that it has been made
inoperative and drained of refrigerant. The label must indicate the date
and must be signed. Make sure there are labels on the equipment
indicating that it contains flammable refrigerant.
 Measures to be taken in case of an accidental leak
Ensure adequate personal protection (using means of respiratory
protection) during clean-up operations. If the conditions are sufficiently
safe, isolate the source of the leak.
If the amount of the spill is limited, let the material evaporate, as long as
adequate ventilation can be ensured. If the spill is considerable,
ventilate the area adequately.
Contain the spilt material with sand, soil, or other suitable absorbent
material.
Prevent the liquid from entering drains, sewers, underground facilities or
manholes, because suffocating vapours may form.
As the units are loaded with refrigerant classified A2L (low flammability),
do not use flames or sources of ignition near the machine until the
leaked gas has been eliminated by ventilation.
If there is a gas leak, disconnect the electrical supply upstream of the
unit.
I.3.1.4 Main toxicological information on the type of
refrigerant fluid used
 Inhalation
A high atmospheric concentration can cause anaesthetic effects with
possible loss of consciousness. Prolonged exposure may lead to an
irregular heartbeat and cause sudden death.
Higher concentrations may cause asphyxia due to the reduced oxygen
content in the atmosphere.
 Contact with skin
Splashes of nebulised liquid can produce frostbite. Probably not
hazardous if absorbed through the skin. Repeated or prolonged contact
may remove the skin's natural oils, with consequent dryness, cracking
and dermatitis.
 Contact with eyes
Splashes of liquid may cause frostbite.
 Ingestion
While highly improbable, if it occurs it may cause frostbite.
I.3.1.5 First aid measures
 Inhalation
Move the person away from the source of exposure, keep him/her warm
and let him/her rest. Administer oxygen if necessary. Attempt artificial
respiration if breathing has stopped or shows signs of stopping.
In the case of cardiac arrest carry out chest compressions and seek
immediate medical assistance.
 Contact with skin
In case of contact with skin, wash immediately with lukewarm water.
Thaw the affected areas with water. Remove contaminated clothing.
Clothing may stick to the skin in case of frostbite. If irritation, swelling or
blisters appear, seek medical assistance.
 Contact with eyes
Rinse immediately using an eyewash or clean water, keeping eyelids
open, for at least ten minutes.
Seek medical assistance.
 Ingestion
Do not induce vomiting. If the injured person is conscious, rinse his/her
mouth with water and make him/her drink 200-300 ml of water.
Seek immediate medical assistance.
 Further medical treatment
Treat symptoms and carry out support therapy as indicated. Do not
administer adrenaline or similar sympathomimetic drugs following
exposure, due to the risk of cardiac arrhythmia.
I.3.2 INFORMATION ABOUT RESIDUAL RISKS
THAT CANNOT BE ELIMINATED

IMPORTANT!

Pay the utmost attention to the signs and symbols
displayed on the appliance.
If any risks persist in spite of the provisions adopted, these are
indicated by adhesive labels attached to the machine in compliance
with standard "ISO 3864".
Indicates the presence of live components.
Indicates the presence of moving parts
(belts, fans).
Indicates the presence of hot surfaces
(cooling circuit, compressor heads).
Indicates the presence of sharp edges on
finned coils.
Indicates the presence of flammable R32
refrigerant gas.
I.4 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
