No Smoking signs shall be displayed.
g) 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.
h) Checks to the refrigeration equipment: Where electrical components are being changed, they
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
• 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.
i) 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:
• 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 while charging,
recovering or purging the system;
• That there is continuity of grounding.
7. Repairs to sealed components
a) 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.

9
b) 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 affected.
This shall include damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to
• Ensure that apparatus is mounted securely.
• Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded such that they no longer serve
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 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
ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
9. 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.
10.
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or detection
11. Leak detection methods
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
most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may
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 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.
12. Removal and evacuation
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs or for any other purpose conventional
is a consideration. Opening of the refrigeration systems shall not be done by brazing. The following
procedure shall be adhered to:
• Remove refrigerant;

10
• 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

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 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.
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 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).
•
• 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.
14. Decommissioning
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the
equipment and 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.

11
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
h)
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
j)
cylinders and the equipment are removed from 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. Labelling
Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The
label shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment
16. 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 recovery
cylinders are employed. 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
labelled 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
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 in the
event of a refrigerant release. Consult 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 arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery
units and especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed,
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 a system, it shall
be carried out safely.
