Information on servicing

1. Checks to the area: Prior to beginning work on systems containing ﬂ ammable 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.

2. Work procedure: Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimize the risk of

a ﬂ ammable gas or vapour being present while the work is being performed.

3. 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 conﬁ ned spaces shall be avoided. The area around the

work space shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the conditions within the work area have been made safe

by removing all ﬂ ammable material.

4. Checking for the 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 ﬂ ammable

atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with ﬂ ammable

refrigerants, i.e. non-sparking, adequately sealed and intrinsically safe.

5. Presence of ﬁ re extinguisher: If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or

any associated parts, appropriate ﬁ re extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry

powder or C02 ﬁ re extinguisher adjacent to the work area.

6. 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 ﬂ ammable refrigerant shall use any sources

of ignition in such a manner that it may lead to risk of ﬁ re or explosion. All possible ignition sources

including cigarette smoking, should be kept sufﬁ ciently far away from the site of installation, repairing,

removing and disposal during which ﬂ ammable 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 there

are no ﬂ ammable hazards or ignition risks. No smoking signs shall be displayed.

7. Ventilated area: Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before breaking

into the system or conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period

that the work is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant and

preferable expel it externally into the atmosphere.

8. Checks to the refrigeration equipment: Where electrical components are being changed, they shall

be ﬁ t for the purpose and to the correct speciﬁ cation. At all times the manufacturer’s maintenance and

service guidelines shall be followed. If in doubt consult the manufacturer’s technical department for

assistance. The following checks shall be applied to installations using ﬂ ammable refrigerants:

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Repairs to sealed components

1. During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the equipment

being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have an

electrical supply to equipment during servicing then a permanently operating form of leak detection

shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a potentially hazardous situation.

2. To ensure that by working on electrical components the casing is not altered in such a way that the level

of protection is affected, particular attention shall be paid to the following:

• Damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to original speciﬁ cation,

damage to seals, incorrect ﬁ tting of glands, etc.

• Ensure the apparatus is mounted securely.

• Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded such that they no longer serve the purpose of

preventing the ingress of ﬂ ammable atmospheres. Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the

manufacturer’s speciﬁ cations.

Note: The use of silicon sealant may inhibit the effectiveness of some types of leak detection equipment.

Intrinsically safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working on them.

Repair to intrinsically safe components

Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this

will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in use. Intrinsically

safe components are the only types that can be worked on while live in the presence of a ﬂ ammable

atmosphere. The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replace components only with parts speciﬁ ed

by the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.

Cabling

Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges or any

other adverse environmental effects. The check shall also take into account the effects of aging or continual

vibration from sources such as compressors or fans.

Detection of ﬂ ammable refrigerants

Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or detection of

refrigerant leaks. A halide torch or any other detector using a naked ﬂ ame shall not be used.

Leak detection methods

The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems containing ﬂ ammable

refrigerants:

• Electronic leak detectors shall be used to detect ﬂ ammable refrigerants but the sensitivity may not be

adequate or may need recalibration. Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.

Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used.

• Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and shall be

calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas (25% maximum) is

conﬁ rmed.

• Leak detection ﬂ uids are suitable for use with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing

chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper or

pipe-work.

• If a leak is suspected, all naked ﬂ ames shall be removed or extinguished.

• If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered

from the system or isolated by means of shut off valves in a part of the system remote from the leak.

Oxygen free nitrogen (OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and during the

brazing process.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Important Safety Information

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Removal and evacuation

When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs or for any other purpose conventional

procedures shall be used. However, it is important that the best practice is followed since ﬂ ammability is a

consideration. The following procedures shall be adhered to:

• Remove refrigerant.

• Purge the circuit with inert gas.

• Evacuate.

• Purge again with inert gas.

• Open the circuit by cutting or brazing.

• The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders. The system shall be

ﬂ ushed with OFN to render the unit safe. This process may need to be repeated several times.

Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used for this task.

• Flushing shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to ﬁ ll until

the working pressure is achieved, then venting to atmosphere and ﬁ nally pulling down to a vacuum.

This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system. When the ﬁ nal OFN charge

is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place. This

operation is absolutely vital is brazing operations on the pipe-work are to take place.

• Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not close to any ignition sources and there is ventilation

available.

Charging procedures

In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be followed:

• Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging equipment.

Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained in them.

• Cylinders shall be kept upright.

• Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system with refrigerant.

• Label the system when charging is complete, if not already labeled.

• Extreme care shall be taken not to overﬁ ll the refrigeration system.

• Prior to recharging the system it shall be pressure tested with OFN. The system shall be leak tested on

completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to

leaving the site.

Decommissioning

Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the

equipment in all its detail. It is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior

to the task being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken in case analysis is required

prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is

commenced.

A. Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.

B. Isolate system electrically.

C. Before attempting the procedure ensure that:

• Mechanical handling equipment is available if required for handling refrigerant cylinders.

• All personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly.

• The recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person.

• Recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.

D. Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.

E. If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from various parts of

the system.

F. Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.

G. Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

H. Do not overﬁ ll cylinders. No more than 80% volume liquid charge.

I. Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.

J. When the cylinders have been ﬁ lled correctly and the process is completed, make sure that the cylinders

and the equipment are removed from the site promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment are

closed off.

K. Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned

and checked.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Important Safety Information

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Labeling

Equipment shall be labeled stating that it has been decommissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The label

shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains

ﬂ ammable refrigerant.

Recovery

When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended

good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely.

When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovers cylinders are

employed. Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge are available.

All cylinders to be used are designed for the recovered refrigerant and labeled for that refrigerant, i.e.

special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant. Cylinders shall be complete with pressure relief valve and

associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible,

cooled before recovery occurs.

The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment

that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of ﬂ ammable refrigerants. In addition, a set of

calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order. Hoses shall be complete with

leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition. Before using the recovery machine, check that is it

in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained and that any associated electrical components

are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant leak. Consult the manufacturer if in doubt.

The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder

and the relevant waste transfer note shall be arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and

especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have

been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that ﬂ ammable refrigerant does not remain within

the lubricant. The evacuation process shall be carried out prior to returning the compressor to the suppliers.

Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed to accelerate this process. When oil is

drained form a system, it shall be carried out safely.

For example, if the air conditioner is running,

you can set the auto off timer to let it run for a set

amount of time before turning off and then set the

auto on timer to turn it back on at a later time.

Or, if the air conditioner is not running, you can set

the auto on timer to turn it on at a later time and

then set the auto off timer to shut it off after running

for a period of time.

Note: The timer will not cycle the air conditioner on

and off indeﬁ nitely. The auto on and auto off timers

will function one time and then the air conditioner

will return to regular functioning.

Turning the air conditioner on or off at any time

or changing the timer setting to 0.0 will cancel the

timer settings.

WATER DRAINAGE

Ensure the air conditioner is turned off and

unplugged and that it is close to a ﬂ oor drain before

setting up any drain option.

1. Drain Plug

When the internal drain pan becomes full the

appliance will beep 8 times and the digital display

will show error code P1. The air conditioning or

dehumidifying action will stop but the fan may

continue to operate.

Pull out the drain plug and allow the water to

completely drain. Replace the bottom drain plug,

pressing ﬁ rmly to ensure a tight ﬁ t and no leaks.

The P1 error symbol will disappear and the

appliance will resume regular function once power

is restored.

2. Continuous Drain

During dry mode, you may wish to install a

continuous drain option so that the air conditioner

will automatically drain collected water.

Remove the upper drain plug and attach the drain

hose that was provided with the air conditioner.

Place the open end of the drain hose over the

receptacle that it will drain into; this could be a

basement ﬂ oor drain, a sink or similar.

Ensure that there are no kinks or bends in the drain

hose and that it goes straight down toward the ﬂ oor.

The continuous drain is activated by gravity only.

If the hose is not positioned directly downwards,

water will not drain correctly.
