ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS CONTAINING CLASS

R-32, R-1234YFAND R-1234ZE

The following are additional safety recommendations when servicing refrigeration equipment that contain R-32, R-1234yf and R-1234ze refrigerants. These instructions do not replace existing occupational hazard procedures or other regulations that may be required by local, state or federal agencies.

Technicians working on R-32, R-1234yf and R-1234ze systems should have detailed knowledge of and skills in handling flammable refrigerants, personal protective equipment, refrigerant leakage prevention, handling of cylinders, charging, leak detection and proper disposal.

Additional knowledge of legislation, regulations and standards relating to flammable refrigerants may also be required. Check your local occupational safety codes.

The area of service should be marked as Temporary Flammable Zone. This will be 3 meter perimeter around the refrigeration equipment being serviced and should have no smoking and other hazardous signs posted. Local supervisor should be notified of the zone’s existence.

• A flammable gas detector should be used to monitor air in the Temporary Flammable Zone.
• A dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher must be available at service location.
• A suitable ventilation fan should be used to maintain in the work space at a minimum of 5 air changeovers per hour.
• Ensure the refrigeration equipment’s power has been discontinued.
• All potential ignition sources within Temporary Flammable Zone must be disabled.
• When connecting service equipment (such as vacuum pumps, scales, recovery units) to a power source, the connection must be made outside the Temporary Hazardous Zone.
• A ground strap must be used between the TRS21 motor frame and the recovery tank brass fitting. The ground strap must go on bare metal surface to ensure continuity and discharge of static electrical charges.
• Do not pull system into a vacuum. Stop recovery process at O PSIG. This is to prevent accidental ingestion of air into the recovery tank.
• Once recovery process of a R-32, R-1234yf and R-1234ze system is complete, system should be purged with 100% Nitrogen. Do not use Air.

DANGER-EXPLOSION RISK: Do not mix R-32, R-1234yf and R-1234ze refrigerants with air. All precautions must be taken to eliminate mixing of air with flammable refrigerants, including monitoring Recovery Cylinder for air content.
