Any marking to the equipment should continue to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that
are illegible shall be corrected.
Refrigeration pipes 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 corroded.

11
Important Safety Instructions
9) Checks to electrical devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and
component 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:
Ensuring that capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possible
sparking;
Ensuring that no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering, or
purging the system;
Ensuring that there is continuity of earth bonding;
7. Repairs to Sealed Components
1) During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the unit
being worked on prior to the removal of sealed covers and other parts (if any). If it is necessary
to have an electrical supply connected to the unit 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) Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that when working on electrical
components, the casing is not altered in such a way that the level of protection is affected. This
shall include damage to the cables, an excessive number of connections, terminals not made to
the original specification, damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc.
Ensure that the unit is mounted securely.
Ensure that the seals or sealing materials have not been degraded to a point 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.
8. Repair to Intrinsically Safe Components
Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitive loads to the circuit without ensuring that this will
not exceed the permissible voltage and current for the unit in use. Intrinsically safe components are
the only types that can be worked on while live and in the presence of a flammable atmosphere. The
test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replace the components only with parts specified by the
manufacturer. Other parts may result in the ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
9. Cabling
Check that the cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges,
or any other adverse environmental effects. The check shall also consider the effects of aging or continual
vibration from sources such as compressors or fans.
10. Detection of Flammable Refrigerants
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in searching for or detecting refrigerant
leaks. A halide torch (or any other detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.
11. 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 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 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
pipework. If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed / extinguished. If a refrigerant leak is

12
found (which requires brazing), all refrigerants shall be recovered from the system, or isolated (by means
of shut off valves) in a part of the system that is situated remotely from the leak. Oxygen free nitrogen
(OFN) shall then be purged from the system both before and during the brazing process.
12. Removal and Evacuation
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs or for any other purpose, conventional
procedures shall be used. Considering flammability, follow best practices. Opening of the refrigeration
systems shall not be done by brazing. Adherence to the following procedures is a must:
a) Removing the refrigerant;
b) Purging the circuit with inert gas;
c) Evacuation;
d) Purging again with inert gas;
e) Opening 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 the atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This
process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is inside 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 if brazing operations on the pipework are to take place.
Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not near any ignition sources and that ventilation is
available.
13. 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 the 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 before charging the system with the refrigerant. Label the
system when the charging is complete (in case it has not been labeled yet).
Extreme care shall be taken to avoid overfilling the refrigeration system.
Prior to recharging the system, the pressure test with OFN must first be conducted. The system leak test
shall be performed upon completion of charging, but should be done prior to commissioning. A follow up
leak test shall be carried out before leaving the site.
14. Decommissioning
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the
equipment and all necessary details. It is good practice that all refrigerants be recovered safely. Prior
to carrying out this task, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken in case analysis is required before
reusing the reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before this task
commences.
a) Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
b) Isolate the 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 always supervised by a competent person and recovery equipment and
cylinders conform to the required standards.
d) Pump down the refrigerant system, if possible.
Important Safety Instructions

13
Important Safety Instructions
e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerants can be removed from various
parts of the system.
f) Make sure that the 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 the 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.
15. Labeling
The unit shall be labeled stating that it has been decommissioned and emptied of the refrigerant. The
label shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the unit stating that it contains flammable
refrigerants.
16. Recovery
When removing the refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended
that all refrigerants are removed safely.
When transferring the refrigerant into the cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery
cylinders are used. Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge
is available. All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and labeled for that
refrigerant (i.e., special cylinders refrigerant recovery). Cylinders shall be complete with pressure relief
valves and associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders should be evacuated
and, if possible, cooled before the 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 it is in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained, and that any associated electrical
components are sealed to prevent ignition if a refrigerant is released. Consult Customer Service when in
doubt.
The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder, and
the relevant Waste Transfer Note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not
in cylinders. If the compressors or the compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been
evacuated to an acceptable level so that the 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 from the system, it shall be carried out safely.

3. INSTALL THE ACCORDION PANELS
NOTE:
The top rail and sliding panels on each side are
there to provide the proper pitch to the rear
of (5/16") this unit. This is necessary for proper
condensed water utilization and drainage. If you are
not using the side panels for any reason, this pitch
to the rear should also be maintained.
1. Place the unit on a solid surface. Hold the
Accordion Panel in one hand and gently pull
the center back to free the open end.
2. Slide the free end “I” section of the panel
directly into the cabinet, then slide the panel
down. Be sure to leave enough space to slip
the top and bottom of the frame into the rails
on the cabinet.
3. Once the panel has been installed to the side
of the cabinet, slightly adjust it to make sure
it sits securely inside the frame channel. Slide
the top and bottom ends of the frame into the
top and bottom rails of the cabinet.
4. Slide the panel all the way in and repeat these
steps to assemble the other side.
4. SECURE THE ACCORDION PANELS
Keep a firm grip on the air conditioner, then
carefully place the unit into the window opening so
the bottom of the air conditioner frame is against
the window sill. Carefully close the window behind
the top rail of the unit.
