1.10. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON SERVICING
Please follow these warnings when to undertake the following when servicing an appliance with R290.
1.11. 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 minimized. For repair to the refrigerating system, the following precautions shall be complied with prior to conducting work on the
system.
1.12. WORK PROCEDURE
Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimize the risk of a flammable gas or vapour being present while the
work is being performed.
1.13. GENERAL WORK AREA
All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the nature of work being carried out. Work in confined
spaces shall be avoided. The area around the work space shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the conditions within the area have been
made safe by control of flammable material.
1.14. 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. no sparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.
1.15. 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.
1.16. 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.
