including cigarette smoking, should be kept sufciently far away from the site of installation,
repairing, removing and disposal, during which ammable refrigerant can possibly be released
to the surrounding space. Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be
surveyed to make sure that there are no ammable hazards or ignition risks. “No Smoking” signs
shall be displayed.
1. Ventilated Area
Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before breaking into the
system or conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that
the work is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant and
preferably expel it externally into the atmosphere.
2. Checks To The Refrigeration Equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be t for the purpose and to the
correct specication. At all times the manufacturer’s maintenance and service guidelines shall be
followed. If in doubt consult the manufacturer’s technical department for assistance.
The following checks shall be applied to installations using ammable refrigerants:
• The charge size is in accordance with the room size within which the refrigerant containing
parts are installed;
• The ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed;
• If an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit shall be checked for
the presence of refrigerant;
• Marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that are
illegible shall be corrected;
• Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be
exposed to any substance which may corrode refrigerant-containing components, unless the
components are constructed of materials which are inherently resistant to being corroded or
are suitably protected against being so corroded.
3. Checks To Electrical Devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and com-
ponent inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no electrical
supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the 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:
• those capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of
sparking;
• that no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or
purging the system;
• that there is continuity of earth bonding.
