6 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIO NS The characteristics of the electrical lines must be determined by specialized personnel able to design electrical installations; moreover, the lines must be in conformity with regulations in force. The protection devices of the unit power line must be able to stop the presumed short circuit current, whose value must be determined in function of system features.
Signals / data lines Do not overpass the maximum power allowed, which varies, according to the type of signal. Lay the cables far from power cables or cables having a different tension and that are able to emit electromagnetic disturbances. Do not lay the cable near devices which can generate electromagnetic interferences.

If the compressor breaks down due to operating in the above- mentioned conditions, the warranty shall no longer be valid and CLIVET spa shall not accept any liability. Periodically check the average operating times and frequency of compressor start-ups: indicatively the minimum thermal load must be such as to require a compressor to operate for at least ten minutes.

10 MAINTENANCE SAFETY WARNINGS FOR OPERATIONS ON UNITS CONTAINING R32 Area checks Before working on systems containing flammable refrigerants, perform safety checks to reduce the risk of combustion to the minimum. Before performing any reparation operations on the cooling system, comply with the following warnings.
Page 49
containing refrigerant, unless they are manufactured with material intrinsically resistant to corrosion or suitably protected against corrosion. Electrical device checks The reparation and maintenance of electric components must include initial safety checks and component inspection procedures. In case of a fault that compromises safety, do not perform any electrical connection to the circuit until said fault is suitably resolved.
Page 50
Leak detection fluids are suitable for most refrigerants, although using detergents containing chlorine should be avoided as this substance may react with the refrigerant and corrode copper pipes. If a leak is suspected, all open flames must be removed or switched off. If a leak is identified that requires brazing, all the refrigerant must be recovered from the system or isolated (using interception valves) in a section of the system far away from the leak.
Page 51
The recovery equipment and tanks comply with suitable standards. If possible, pump the cooling system. If it is not possible to obtain a vacuum, make sure that a collector removes the refrigerant from various parts of the system. Before proceeding with the recovery, check that the tank is located on the scales.

Compressor casing heater Check: closure Operation Water side heat exchanger The exchanger must to be able to provide the maximum thermal exchange, therefore it is essential for the inner surfaces to be clean of dirt and build-up. Periodically check the difference between the temperature of the supply water and the condensation temperature: if the difference is greater than 8°C–10°C it is advisable to clean the exchanger.

12 RESIDUAL RISKS General In this section the most common situations are indicated,as these cannot be controlled by the manufacturer and could be a source of risk situations for people or things. Danger zone This is an area in which only an authorised operator may work. The danger zone is the area inside the unit which is accessible only with the deliberate removal of protections or parts thereof.
Page 61
If there is a fire the temperature of the refrigerant could reach values that in-crease the pressure to beyond the safety valve with the consequent possible projection of the refrigerant itself or explosion of the circuit parts that remain isolated by the closure of the tap. Do not remain in the vicinity of the safety valve and never leave the refriger-ating system taps closed.
