The accidental releases of the refrigerant, due to small leaks
or signicant discharges following the rupture of a pipe or
an unexpected release from a relief valve,can cause frostbites
and burns to personnel exposed. Do not ignore such injuries.
Installers, owners and especially service technicians for
these units must:
-Seek medical attention before treating such injuries.
-Have access to a rst-aid kit, especially for treating
eye injuries.
We recommend to apply standard EN 378-3 Annex 3 and
ISO5149.
Never apply an open ame or live steam to a refrigerant
circuit. Dangerous overpressure can result.
During refrigerant removal and storage operations follow
applicable regulations. These regulations, permitting
conditioning and recovery of halogenated hydrocarbons under
optimum quality conditions for the products and optimum
safety conditions for people, property and the environment
are described in standard NF E29-795. The units must never
be modied to add refrigerant and oil charging, removal and
purging devices.All these devices are provided with the units.
Refer to the certied dimensional drawings for the units.
It is dangerous and illegal to re-use disposable (non-returnable)
cylinders or attempt to rell them. When cylinders are empty,
evacuate the remaining gas pressure, and move them to a
designated place for recovery. Do not incinerate.
Do not attempt to remove refrigerant circuit components
or ttings, while the machine is under pressure or while it
is running. Be sure pressure is at 0 kPa and that the unit
has been shut-down and de-energised before removing
components or opening a circuit.
Do not attempt to repair or recondition any safety devices
when corrosion or build-up of foreign material (rust, dirt,
scale, etc.) is found within the valve body or mechanism. If
necessary, replace the device. Do not install safety valves
in series or backwards.
CAUTION:
No part of the unit must be used as a walkway, rack or
support.Periodically check and repair or if necessary replace
any component or piping that shows signs of damage.
Do not step on refrigerant lines. The lines can break under
the weight and release refrigerant, causing personal injury.
Do not climb on a machine. Use a platform, or staging to
work at higher levels.
Use mechanical lifting equipment (crane, hoist, winch, etc.)
to lift or move heavy components. For lighter components,
use lifting equipment when there is a risk of slipping or
losing your balance.
Use only original replacement parts for any repair or
component replacement.Consult the list of replacement parts
that corresponds to the specication of the original equipment.
Do not drain water circuits containing industrial brines,
without informing the technical service department at the
installation site or a competent body rst.
Close the entering and leaving water shutoff valves and
purge the unit hydronic circuit, before working on the
components installed on the circuit (screen lter, pump,
water ow switch, etc.).
Periodically inspect all valves, ttings and pipes of the
refrigerant and hydronic circuits to ensure that they do not
show any corrosion or any signs of leaks.
Always ensure you are using the correct refrigerant type
before recharging the unit.
Charging any refrigerant other than the original charge type
(R-410A) will impair machine operation and can even lead
to a destruction of the compressors. The compressors operate
with R-410A and are charged with asyntheticpolyol-ester oil.
Before any intervention on the refrigerant circuit, the
complete refrigerant charge must be recovered.
1.3 - Preliminary checks
Check equipment received:
-Inspect the unit for damage or missing parts. If damage
is detected, or if shipment is incomplete, immediately
le a claim with the shipping company.
-Conrm that the unit received is the one ordered.
Compare the name plate data with the order.
-The name plate is attached to the unit in two locations:
• on the outside on one of the unit sides
• on the inside.
-Theunitnameplatemust includethefollowinginformation:
• Model number - size
• CE marking
• Serial number
• Year of manufacture,pressure and leaktightness test date
• Fluid being transported
• Refrigerant used
• Refrigerant charge per circuit
• PS: Min./max. allowable pressure (high and low pressure
side)
• TS: Min./max. allowable temperature (high and low
pressure side)
• Pressure switch cut-out pressure
• Unit leak test pressure
• Voltage, frequency, number of phases
• Maximum current drawn
• Maximum power input
• Unit net weight
-Conrm that all options ordered for on-site installation
have been delivered,and are complete and undamaged.
The unit must be checked periodically, if necessary removing
the insulation (thermal,acoustic), during its whole operating
life to ensure that no shocks (handling accessories, tools,
etc.) have damaged it. If necessary, the damaged parts must
be repaired or replaced. See also chapter §5. Maintenance.
