besuretowaitatleastthreeminutes
beforerestartingtheunit.ifyou
restart the air conditioner within three
minutes, a protective device in the unit

faultcannotbecorrectedimmediately
butitisnecessarytocontinue
operation, an adequate temporary
solutionshallbeused.Thisshallbe
reported to the owner of the equipment
so all parties are advised.
Initialsafetychecksshallinclude:
• Thatcapacitorsaredischarged:this
shallbedoneinasafemannertoavoid
possibilityofsparking;
• That there no live electrical
components and wiring are exposed

bonding.
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.

Repair to intrinsically safe
components
NOTE:Theuseofsiliconsealantmay
inhibitthee󰘯ectivenessofsometypes
of leak detection equipment. Intrinsically
safecomponentsdonothavetobe
isolated prior to working on them.
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󰘱ammableatmosphere.
Thetestapparatusshallbeatthecorrect
rating. Replace components only with
partsspeci󰘰edbythemanufacturer.
Other parts may result in the ignition of
refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
Checkthatcablingwillnotbesubject
to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure,
vibration,sharpedgesoranyother
adverseenvironmentale󰘯ects.Thecheck
shallalsotakeintoaccountthee󰘯ectsof
agingorcontinualvibrationfromsources
such as compressors or fans.
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󰘱ame)shall
notbeused.
Cabling
Detection of 󰄉ammable refrigerants
Whenbreakingintotherefrigerant
circuit to make repairs – or for any other
purpose – conventional procedures
shallbeused.However,itisimportant
thatbestpracticeisfollowedsince
󰘱ammabilityisaconsideration.The
followingprocedure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 following leak detection methods
aredeemedacceptableforsystems
containing󰘱ammablerefrigerants.
Electronicleakdetectorsshallbeused
todetect󰘱ammablerefrigerants,butthe
sensitivitymaynotbeadequate,ormay
needre-calibration.(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con󰘰rmed.
Leakdetection󰘱uids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
pipe-work.
Ifaleakissuspected,allnaked󰘱ames
shallberemoved/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o󰘯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
Leak detection methods2. Particularattentionshallbepaidtothe
followingtoensurethatbyworkingon
electrical components, the casing is
not altered in such a way that the level
ofprotectionisa󰘯ected.Thisshall
includedamagetocables,excessive
numberofconnections,terminalsnot
madetooriginalspeci󰘰cation,damage
toseals,incorrect󰘰tting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󰘱ammable
atmospheres. Replacement parts
shallbeinaccordancewiththe
manufacturer’sspeci󰘰cations.
Therefrigerantchargeshallberecovered
into the correct recovery cylinders. The
systemshallbe“󰘱ushed”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
