Maintenance

Checks to the Area

Before starting work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are essential to minimize the risk of ignition. Follow these precautions before conducting any work on the system.

Work Procedure

Undertake work under controlled procedures to minimize the presence of flammable gas or vapor during the task.

General Work Area

Instruct all maintenance staff and others working nearby on the nature of the work being conducted.

Avoid working in confined spaces.

Checking for Presence of Refrigerant

Use an appropriate refrigerant detector before and during work to detect potentially toxic or flammable atmospheres. Ensure that leak detection equipment is suitable for use with all applicable refrigerants (non-sparking, adequately sealed, or intrinsically safe).

Presence of Fire Extinguisher

If hot work is required on the refrigerating equipment or any associated parts, ensure appropriate fire extinguishing equipment (dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher) is available nearby.

No Ignition Sources

No person working on refrigerating systems should use ignition sources that could lead to fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including smoking, should be kept far from the installation, repair, removal, and disposal sites where refrigerant might be released. Display "No Smoking" signs around the area.

Ventilated Area

Ensure the area is open or adequately ventilated before breaking into the system or conducting any hot work. Ventilation should continue during the work period to safely disperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally.

Checks to the Refrigerating Equipment

When changing electrical components, ensure they meet the correct specifications and follow the manufacturer's maintenance and service guidelines. Consult a professional if in doubt.

Checks to Electrical Devices

Initial safety checks and component inspections are necessary for repairs and maintenance of electrical components. If a fault exists that compromises safety, do not connect the electrical supply until it is resolved. If immediate correction is not possible but continued operation is necessary, use an adequate temporary solution and inform the equipment owner.

Initial safety checks include:

• Discharging the capacitor safely to avoid sparking.
• Ensuring no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering, or purging the system.
• Checking the continuity of earth bonding.

Repairs to Sealed Components

Disconnect all electrical supplies before removing sealed covers or components. If electrical supply is necessary during servicing, use a permanently operating leak detection system at the most critical point to warn of hazardous situations.

Pay particular attention to:

• Ensuring the casing is not altered in a way that affects the protection level.
  • Securing the apparatus properly.
• Checking that seals or sealing materials have not degraded.
  • Repair to Intrinsically Safe Components

Do not apply permanent inductive or capacitive loads to the circuit without ensuring they do not exceed the permissible voltage and current. Only work on intrinsically safe components in the presence of a flammable atmosphere. Use test apparatus with the correct rating and replace components only with parts specified by Kogan.com

Cabling

Ensure cabling is not subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges, or adverse environmental effects. Consider the effects of aging or continuous vibration from sources like compressors or fans.

Detection of Flammable Refrigerants

Never use potential ignition sources for detecting refrigerant leaks. Do not use a halide torch or any other detector with a naked flame.

Removal and Evacuation

When breaking into the refrigerant circuit for repairs or other purposes, use conventional procedures while considering flammability. Follow this procedure:

1. Remove refrigerant.
2. Purge the circuit with inert gas.
3. Evacuate.
4. Purge with inert gas again.
5. Open the circuit by cutting or brazing.

Recover the refrigerant charge into the correct recovery cylinders. For systems with flammable refrigerants, purge with oxygen-free nitrogen to render the appliance safe. Repeat the process as needed. Do not use compressed air or oxygen for purging.

For systems with flammable refrigerants, achieve purging by breaking the vacuum with oxygen-free nitrogen, filling to working pressure, venting, and pulling down to a vacuum. Repeat until no refrigerant remains. When using the final nitrogen charge, vent to atmospheric pressure before starting work.

Charging Procedures

In addition to conventional charging procedures, follow these requirements:

- Avoid contamination of different refrigerants.

• Keep hoses or lines short to minimize contained refrigerant.
• Position cylinders appropriately as per instructions.
• Ensure the refrigerating system is earthed before charging.
• Label the system when charging is complete.
• Avoid overfilling the system.
• Pressure-test with appropriate purging gas before recharging.

- Leak-test upon charging completion and before commissioning. Conduct a follow-up leak test before leaving the site.

Decommissioning

Ensure familiarity with the equipment before starting. Recover refrigerants safely and isolate the system electrically. Follow these steps:

• Ensure mechanical handling equipment is available for refrigerant cylinders.
• Use all required personal protective equipment correctly.
• Supervise the recovery process by a qualified person.
• Use recovery equipment and cylinders conforming to standards.
• Pump down the refrigerant system or use a manifold to remove refrigerant from various parts.
• Start the recovery machine and operate it per manufacturer instructions.
• Do not overfill cylinders (max 80% volume liquid charge) or exceed cylinder pressure limits.
• Remove filled cylinders and equipment promptly, closing all isolation valves.
• Recovered refrigerant must be cleaned and checked before use in another system.

Labelling

Label equipment as decommissioned and emptied of refrigerant. Include the date and signature. For flammable refrigerants, ensure appropriate labels are present.

Recovery

When removing refrigerant, use appropriate recovery cylinders. Ensure enough cylinders are available and they are designated and labelled for the recovered refrigerant. Cylinders must have pressure-relief valves and shut-off valves in good condition. Use properly maintained recovery equipment with instructions. Hoses must be leak-free and in good condition.

Return recovered refrigerant to the supplier in the correct cylinder and arrange a waste transfer note. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units or cylinders.

Handling Compressors and Oils

Evacuate compressors to remove flammable refrigerant before returning to suppliers. Use electric heating to the compressor body if necessary. Safely drain oil to ensure no flammable refrigerant remains.
