Brazing; Compressor - Hoshizaki DCM-60KE Service Manual

3. BRAZING

1. Refrigerant R134A itself is not flammable, explosive and poisonous. However, when
exposed to an open flame, R134A creates phosgene gas, hazardous in large
amounts.
2. Always recover the refrigerant and store it in a proper container, if required by an
applicable law. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
3. Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.
4. In its liquid state, the refrigerant can cause frostbite because of the low temperature.

4. COMPRESSOR

replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made.
