Repairs to sealed components
1. During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the equipment
being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have an
electrical supply to equipment during servicing then a permanently operating form of leak detection
shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a potentially hazardous situation.
2. To ensure that by working on electrical components the casing is not altered in such a way that the level
of protection is affected, particular attention shall be paid to the following:
• Damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to original specification,
damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc.
• Ensure the 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.
Intrinsically safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working on them.
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 and current 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.
Cabling
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, 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.
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.
Important Safety Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Leak detection methods
The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems containing flammable
refrigerants:
• Electronic leak detectors shall be used to detect flammable refrigerants but the sensitivity may not be
adequate or may need recalibration. Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.
Ensure that the 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 the use of detergents containing
chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper or
pipe-work.
• If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed or extinguished.
• If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered
from the system or isolated by means of shut off valves in a part of the system remote from the leak.
Oxygen free nitrogen (OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and during the
brazing process.
Removal and evacuation
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs or for any other purpose conventional
procedures shall be used. However, it is important that the best practice is followed since flammability is a
consideration. The following procedures shall be adhered to:
• Remove refrigerant.
• Purge the circuit with inert gas.
• Evacuate.
• Purge again with inert gas.
• Open the circuit by cutting or brazing.
• The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders. The system shall be
flushed with OFN to render the unit safe. This process may need to be repeated several times.
Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used for this task.
• Flushing shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to fill until
the working pressure is achieved, then venting to atmosphere and finally pulling down to a vacuum.
This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system. When the final OFN charge
is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place. This
operation is absolutely vital is brazing operations on the pipe-work are to take place.
• Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not close to any ignition sources and there is ventilation
available.
Important Safety Information
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Charging procedures
In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be followed:
• Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging equipment.
Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained in them.
• Cylinders shall be kept upright.
• Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system with refrigerant.
• Label the system when charging is complete, if not already labeled.
• Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the refrigeration system.
• Prior to recharging the system it shall be pressure tested with OFN. The system shall be leak tested on
completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to
leaving the site.
Decommissioning
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the
equipment in all its detail. It is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior
to the task being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken in case analysis is required
prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is
commenced.
A. Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
B. Isolate system electrically.
C. Before attempting the procedure ensure that:
• Mechanical handling equipment is available if required for handling refrigerant cylinders.
• All personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly.
• The recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person.
• Recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.
D. Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.
E. If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from various parts of
the system.
F. Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
G. Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
H. Do not overfill cylinders. No more than 80% volume liquid charge.
I. Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
J. When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process is completed, make sure that the cylinders
and the equipment are removed from the site promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment are
closed off.
K. Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned
and checked.

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
Labeling
Equipment shall be labeled stating that it has been decommissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The label
shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains
flammable refrigerant.
Recovery
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended
good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely.
When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovers cylinders are
employed. Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge are available.
All cylinders to be used are designed for the recovered refrigerant and labeled for that refrigerant, i.e.
special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant. Cylinders shall be complete with pressure relief valve and
associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible,
cooled before recovery occurs.
The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment
that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of flammable refrigerants. In addition, a set of
calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order. Hoses shall be complete with
leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition. Before using the recovery machine, check that is it
in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained and that any associated electrical components
are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant leak. Consult the manufacturer if in doubt.
The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder
and the relevant waste transfer note shall be arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and
especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have
been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable refrigerant does not remain within
the lubricant. The evacuation process shall be carried out prior to returning the compressor to the suppliers.
Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed to accelerate this process. When oil is
drained form a system, it shall be carried out safely.
