1.3 Safety instructions for coolant
Danger specications:
The R410A coolant is classied as a chemical with low toxicity. The maximum workplace concentration (MAK value)
should not exceed the following limit values:
Diuormethane CH2F2 and pentauorethane C2HF5: max. 1000 ppm and 3500 mg/cm³.
Handling of R410A may be dangerous in the case of:
• Direct contact with the skin
• Prolonged inhalation of coolant fumes
• Reaction of the chemical with intense heat and open ames
CAUTION – danger of burns!
Escaping coolant cools down rapidly. Contact with the R410A can lead to cold burns and frostbite.
Protective overalls, gloves, face mask and glasses must be worn for all work on the chiller.
WARNING – Intoxication
If large amounts of R410A escape into the room atmosphere, fumes are produced that can lead to
intoxication or disturbance of the heart rate which could be fatal. Take immediate safety precautions
in case of heavy leakage from the coolant circuit.
• Air the room immediately, if safe to do so
• Leave the room and secure the entrances to prevent anyone else from entering the room
• Post signs alerting people to the possible danger of fumes!
• Inform the safety service or re department!
CAUTION – dangerous chemical reactions!
R410A reacts with open lights or when in contact with very hot surfaces and will produce toxic or irritative
substances.
Do not use open lights in the vicinity of the SunCool! Do not expose the SunCool to excessive heat!
