Upon initial work, regarding systems containing flammable refrigerants, mandatory safety checks are required to ensure that the risk of possible ignition is minimized. Prior to any repairing to the refrigerant system, the following -
Work procedure
Any handling should be performed under a controlled procedure as to minimize the risk of flammable gas being present while work is being performed. -
General work area
All relative maintenance staff and all others working in the area, should be clearly instructed, on the nature of the procedure. Any maintenance in confined spaces must be avoided. The space around the work-area should be securely sectioned off. Confirm that the conditions within the area, are safe and the flammable material is controlled. -
Prior to and during work operation, the area should be checked and monitored by an appropriate refrigerant detector, also ensuring the technicians to be aware of potentially flammable materials in the atmosphere. It is very important that the refrigerant detector being used is suitable for the usage with flammable refrigerants.
-
Presence of fire extinguisher
If any work that involves heat, is to be conducted, the appropriate fire extinguishing equipment should be always available. A dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher should be available adjacent to the charging area. -
No ignition sources
Work that is in relation to a refrigeration system which involves exposing any pipe works that contains or has contained flammable refrigerant gases should be carried out be no persons, as they may lead to the risk of a fire.All possible fire hazards such as cigarette smoking, must be kept far away from the site of repair,installation removing and or disposal, where the possibility of refrigerant gas may be released to the atmosphere. Prior to the performance of any work conducted, the area around the equipment should be monitored and checked to be certain that no flammable hazards or ignition risks are present. NO SMOKING signs are mandatory and must be displayed.. -
Ventilated area
Prior to any work performed, be certain that the area is well ventilated or open. Constant ventilation while any work is carried out is necessary. Ventilation should safely disperse any possible refrigerant leak externally into the atmosphere. -
Checks to the refrigeration equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they should be fit for purpose and with the correct specifications. Manufacturer’s maintenance and Service Guidelines should be followed at all times. If there is any doubt, please consult with the manufacturer’s Technical Debt for assistance. The following checks should always be performed in regard to installations using flammable refrigerants: The charge size is in accordance with the room size, in which the refrigerant parts are installed. Be certain the ventilation is operative and check the outlets do not have any obstructions.
If there is a use of an indirect refrigerant circuit, this secondary circuit should be checked for any refrigerant being present. Any markings to the equipment should be clear and visible. Markings and signs that are not clear should be corrected. Any refrigeration pipe or components should be installed in such a manner as to never be exposed to any substance that may lead to the corrosion of the refrigerant containing components, unless these components are designed as resistant to possible corrosion, or are corroded resistant. -
Checks to electrical devices
The repair and the maintenance to the electrical components must include safety checks and also component inspection procedures. If there is any fault, that may compromise the safety of the work applied, then no electrical supply should be connected to the circuit until it is corrected. If the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, a temporary solution may be applied, such as the reporting to the owner of the equipment, so all parties are informed.
Initial safety checks shall include:
Capacitors are discharged, in a safe manner to avoid any possible sparking. No active electrical components and wirings are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system. That it is properly grounded. -
Repairs to sealed components
-
During any performed repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies must be disconnected from the equipment prior to this act. If it is necessary to have an electrical supply to the equipment during its servicing, then a leak detector should be applied as to warn if there are any signs of potential hazards present.
-
There should be particular attention to the following as to ensure, that by working on electrical components there is no alteration to the casing in such a way that the level of protection is affected. This includes damage to the cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not designed to original specifications, any damage to seals, the incorrect fitting of glands, etc. Ensure the unit is mounted securely.
Ensure that the seals or any sealing materials have not degraded in such a manner as to no longer serve its purpose, preventing flammable gases entering the atmosphere. Any replacement parts should be in accordance as per the manufacturer’s specifications.
NOTE: The use of silicon sealant may affect the efficiency of some types of leak detection equipment. Safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working. -
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, allowed for the equipment in use. Intrinsically safe components are the only type that can be worked on, while live in the presence of flammable atmosphere. The test apparatus should be at the correct rating. Any replacement of parts should be as specified by the Manufacturer, as other parts may result in an ignition of refrigerant gas from a possible leak.
-
Cabling
Please check that cables are not subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, or any other adverse environmental effects. Aging or continual vibration, should also be taken into account. -
Detection of flammable refrigerants Under no circumstance may a potential ignition source, such as a halide torch or any detector with the use of a flame, may be used.
-
Leak detection methods
The following leak detection methods are acceptable for systems containing flammable refrigerants.
Electronic leak detectors may be used to detect flammable refrigerants. However, the sensitivity may not be adequate, or it is possible it may need re-calibration.
(Detection equipment should be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area) It should be ensured that the detector is not a possible ignition source and is suitable for the refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment should be set at a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment should be set at a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and should be calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas (25% maximum) is confirmed. Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with
most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine must be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work. If a leak is suspected, all flames must be extinguished. If a leakage of refrigerant is spotted which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered from the system, or isolated (by means of shutting off the valves) in a part of the system away from the leak. Oxygen free nitrogen (OFN) should then be purged through the system both before and during the brazing process. -
Removal and evacuation
When interfering with the refrigerant circuit in order to make any repairs or for any other purposes, conventional procedures should be applied. However, it is strongly suggested that safe practice is followed, and flammability should be taken under consideration.
The following procedure should be followed as to:
Remove refrigerant,
Purge the circuit with inert gas,
Evacuate,
Purge again with inert gas,
Open the circuit by performing a cut or brazing. The refrigerant charge should be recovered into the assigned and correct recovery cylinders, The system must be flushed with OFN to render the unit safe, This process may be repeated several times. The use of Compressed air oxygen may not be used for this act. Flushing may be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to fill until the working pressure has been achieved, then venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This process should be repeated until no refrigerant is left within the system. When the final OFN charge is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable any work to be performed. This operation is absolutely crucial if brazing operations on the pipe-work are intended to take place.
Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not close to any ignition sources and there is plenty of ventilation available -
Charging procedures
In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements should be followed.
Ensure that the contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging equipment. Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimise t he amount of refrigerant contained in them.
Cylinders shall be kept in an upright position. Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system with any refrigerant.
Label the system when charging is complete (if not labeled already).
Extreme care mustl be taken not to overfill the refrigeration system. Prior to recharging the system, it must be pressure tested with OFN. The system must also be leak tested
on completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test should 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 and all its details. It is considered as good practice that all refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior to the task being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be taken, in the event that analysis is required prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is commenced. -
Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
-
Electrically isolate the system.
-
Before attempting this procedure please 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. -
Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.
-
If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from various parts of the system.
-
Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
-
Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
-
Do not overfill cylinders. (No more than 80 %volume liquid charge).
-
Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
-
When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed, make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment are closed off.
-
Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned and checked.
-
15.Labelling
Equipment must be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The label must be dated and signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains flammable refrigerant. -
Recovery
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed in a safe manner.
When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are employed.
Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge is available. All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and labelled 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 flammable 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 it is 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 release. Consult 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 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 flammable 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 from a system, it shall be carried out safely.
