IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
connections,
terminals
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.
components do not have to be isolated
prior to working on them.
8. 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
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.
9. Cabling
Check that cabling will not be subject to
wear,
corrosion,
vibration, sharp edges or any other
adverse environmental effects. The check
shall also take into account the effects of
aging or continual vibration from sources
such as compressors or fans.
10.Detection of flammable refrigerants
Under no circumstances shall potential
sources of ignition be used in the
searching for or detection of refrigerant
leaks. A halide torch (or any other
detector using a naked flame) shall not be
used.

detector is not a potential source of
ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant
used. Leak detection equipment shall be
set at a percentage of the LFL of the
refrigerant and shall be calibrated to the
refrigerant employed and the appropriate
percentage of gas (25 % maximum) is
confirmed. Leak detection fluids are
suitable for use with most refrigerants but

refrigerants it is important that best
practice be followed, since flammability is
a consideration. The following procedure
shall be adhered to:
a) safely remove refrigerant following local
and national regulations;
b) purge the circuit with inert gas;
c) evacuate (optional for A2L);
d) purge with inert gas (optional for A2L);
e) open the circuit by cutting or brazing.
The refrigerant charge shall be recovered
into the correct recovery cylinders if
venting is not allowed by local and
national codes. For appliances containing
flammable refrigerants, the system shall
be purged with oxygen-free nitrogen to
render the appliance safe for flammable
refrigerants. This process might need to
be repeated several times. Compressed
air or oxygen shall not be used for
re-calibration.
