TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Information on servicing
1) Checks to the area
Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety
checks are necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimised. For repair to
the refrigerating system, the following precautions shall be complied with prior to
conducting work on the system.
2) Work procedure
Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimise the risk
of a flammable gas or vapour being present while the work is being performed.
3) Checking for presence of refrigerant
The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and
during work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially flammable
atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for
use with flammable refrigerants, i.e. non-sparking, adequately sealed or
intrinsically safe.
4) Presence of fire extinguisher
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any
associated parts, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available to
hand. Have a dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.
5) No ignition sources
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system which involves
exposing any pipe work that contains or has contained flammable refrigerant
shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may lead to the risk of
fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking,
should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing,
removing and disposal, during which flammable 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
flammable hazards or ignition risks. “No Smoking” signs shall be displayed.
6) 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.
7) Checks to the refrigeration equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose
and to the correct specification. 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 flammable
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.
