1. Area inspections

Before performing any works on circuits containing flammable refrigerants, it is necessary to perform safety inspections of the area to make sure that the risk of ignition is minimised. When repairing the cooling system, the following precautions must be implemented before working on the system.

2. Working procedure

Tasks should be carried out under the controlled procedure so that the risk of the presence of flammable gas or vapours is minimised when work is being carried out.

3. General workplace

All maintenance personnel and others working in the place should be instructed in the nature of the work. Avoid working indoors. The area around the workplace must be isolated. Make sure that conditions in the area have been secured by control flammable materials.

4. Refrigerant-presence inspection

Before and during performing work, check the area with a suitable refrigerant detector to ensure that the technician is aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Make sure that the leak-detection equipment used is suitable for use with flammable refrigerants, i.e., does not cause sparking, is properly sealed, and is intrinsically safe.

5. Fire-extinguishing accessibility

If any hot operations are to be carried out on the cooling equipment or any associated parts, suitable fire-extinguishing equipment should be available. Dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher should be placed adjacent to the charging area.

6. No ignition sources

No persons performing work on cooling systems, which consists of uncovering pipes containing flammable refrigerant may use any ignition sources in a manner creating a risk of fire or explosion. All possible sources of ignition, including cigarette smoking, should be kept at a suitable distance from the place of installation, repair, removal, and disposal, during which the flammable refrigerant can be released into the environment. Before starting work, examine the area around the equipment to ensure that there is no fire or ignition hazard. Place “No smoking” signs.

7. Ventilated area

Make sure that the area is outside or properly ventilated before performing any repair or maintenance works on the system or hot operations. A certain degree of ventilation should be maintained during the work-performing period. Ventilation should safely disperse the released refrigerant, and preferably release it outside into the atmosphere.
