CENTRIFUGAL LIQUID CHILLER
(REMOVE AND USE FOR JOB FILE.)

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Centrifugal liquid chillers are designed to provide safe and reli-
able service when operated within design specifications. When
operating this equipment, use good judgment and safety pre-
cautions to avoid damage to equipment and property or injury
to personnel.
Be sure you understand and follow the procedures and safety
precautions contained in the chiller instructions as well as
those listed in this guide.
Failure to follow these procedures will result in severe per-
sonal injury or death.
DO NOT VENT refrigerant relief valves within a building.
Outlet from rupture disc or relief valve must be vented out-
doors in accordance with the latest edition of ANSI/
ASHRAE 15 (American National Standards Institute/
American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-
Conditioning Engineers). The accumulation of refrigerant
in an enclosed space can displace oxygen and cause
asphyxiation.
PROVIDE adequate ventilation in accordance with ANSI/
ASHRAE 15, especially for enclosed and low overhead
spaces. Inhalation of high concentrations of vapor is harm-
ful and may cause heart irregularities, unconsciousness, or
death. Misuse can be fatal. Vapor is heavier than air and re-
duces the amount of oxygen available for breathing. Prod-
uct causes eye and skin irritation. Decomposition products
are hazardous.
DO NOT USE OXYGEN to purge lines or to pressurize a
chiller for any purpose. Oxygen gas reacts violently with
oil, grease, and other common substances.
NEVER EXCEED specified test pressures; VERIFY the al-
lowable test pressure by checking the instruction literature
and the design pressures on the equipment nameplate.
DO NOT USE air for leak testing. Use only refrigerant or
dry nitrogen.
DO NOT VALVE OFF any safety device.
BE SURE that all pressure relief devices are properly in-
stalled and functioning before operating any chiller.
. . .95
RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH by electrocution. High
voltage is present on motor leads even though the motor is
not running when a solid-state or wye-delta mechanical
starter is used. Open the power supply disconnect before
touching motor leads or terminals.
. . .CL-1
Failure to follow these procedures may result in personal
injury or death.
DO NOT USE TORCH to remove any component. System
contains oil and refrigerant under pressure.
To remove a component, wear protective gloves and gog-
gles and proceed as follows:
1.
Shut off electrical power to unit.
2.
Recover refrigerant to relieve all pressure from system
using both high-pressure and low pressure ports.
3.
Traces of vapor should be displaced with nitrogen and
the work area should be well ventilated. Refrigerant in
contact with an open flame produces toxic gases.
4.
Cut component connection tubing with tubing cutter
and remove component from unit. Use a pan to catch
any oil that may come out of the lines and as a gage for
how much oil to add to the system.
5.
Carefully unsweat remaining tubing stubs when neces-
sary. Oil can ignite when exposed to torch flame.
DO NOT USE eyebolts or eyebolt holes to rig chiller sec-
tions or the entire assembly.
DO NOT work on high-voltage equipment unless you are a
qualified electrician.
