Servicing Information
-
Checks to the area
Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable 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. -
Work procedure
Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimize the risk of flammable gas or vapor being present while the work is being performed. -
General work area
All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the nature of the work being carried out. Work in confined spaces shall be avoided. The area around the workspace shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the conditions within the area have been made safe by control of flammable material. -
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 flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with flammable refrigerants, i.e. non-sparking, adequately sealed, or intrinsically safe. -
Presence of a fire extinguisher
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any associated parts, appropriate fire extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area. -
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 flammable refrigeration shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking, should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removal, and disposal, during which flammable 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 that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks. No smoking signs shall be displayed. -
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 refrigeration equipment. -
Checks to the refrigeration equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to the correct specification. 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 flammable refrigerants:
The charge size is in accordance with the room size within the refrigerant- containing parts that are installed.
The ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed.
If an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit shall be checked for the presence of refrigerant.
Marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that are illegible shall be corrected.
Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to any substance that may corrode refrigerant- containing components unless the components are constructed of materials that are inherently resistant to being corroded or are suitably protected against being so corroded. -
Checks to electrical devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, an adequate temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment so all parties are advised.
Initial safety checks shall include:
That capacitors are discharged – this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid the possibility of sparking.
That there are no live electrical components and wiring exposed while charging, recovering, or purging the system.
That there is continuity of earth bonding.
Repairs
Sealed Components
-
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.
Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that by working on electrical components, the casing is not altered in such a way that the level of protection is affected. This shall include damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to original specification, damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc. -
Ensure that 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 flammable atmospheres. Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.
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.
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 flammable
atmosphere. The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replace
components only with parts specified 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 Flammable Refrigerants
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the
search for or detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other
detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.
Leak Detection Methods
The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems
containing flammable refrigerants. Electronic leak detectors shall be used to
detect flammable refrigerants, but the sensitivity may not be adequate or may
need re-calibration.
(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 confirmed. Leak
detection fluids 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 pipe-work. If a leak is suspected, all
naked flames shall be removed/ extinguished. If leakage of refrigerant is
found that requires brazing, all of the refrigerants 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.
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
best practice is followed since flammability is a consideration. Opening of
the refrigeration systems shall not be done by brazing.
The following procedure 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 flushed 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 fill until the working pressure is achieved, then venting to the
atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This process shall be
repeated until no refrigerant is within the system. When the final OFN charge
is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to enable
work to take place. This operation is absolutely vital if 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 minimise 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).
- Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill 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 and all its details. 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.
- Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
- Isolate system electrically.
- 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.
- 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 the cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
- Start the recovery machine and operate it in accordance with the 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.
Labeling
Equipment shall be labeled stating that it has been de-commissioned and
emptied of refrigerant. The label shall 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 safely.
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 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 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 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 arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units 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.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Install the Accordion Panels
NOT E The top rail and sliding panels at each side are offset to provide
the proper pitch to the rear of 5/16”. This is necessary for the proper
condensed water utilization and drainage. If you are not using the side panels
for any reason, this pitch to the rear must be maintained.
- Place unit on a flat, stable surface. Hold the accordion panel in one hand and gently pull back the center to free the open end.
- Slide the free end “I” section of the panel directly into the cabinet. Side the panel down. Be sure to leave enough space to slip the top and bottom of the frame into the rails on the cabinet.
- Once the panel has been installed on the side of the cabinet, make sure it sits securely inside the frame channel by making slight adjustments. Slide the top and bottom ends of the frame into the top and bottom rails of the cabinet.
- Slide the panel all the way in and repeat on the other side.
Storm Window Requirements
A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to tilt properly which
in turn will keep it from draining properly.
To adjust for this, attach a board or piece of wood to the sill. The board or wood piece should have a depth of at least 1-1/2”. Make sure the board or piece of wood is approximately 1/2” higher than the storm window frame. This will allow the air conditioner to tilt enough for proper drainage.
Placing the Unit Inside a Window
Place the air conditioner on the sill with the bottom mounting rail against
its back edge. Center the air conditioner and close the window securely behind
the top mounting rail. The air conditioner should be 3° slightly tilted to the
outside area. Use a level, about a 1/3 bubble will be the correct case slant
to the outside.
(It is suggested to keep a downward angle to let accumulated rainwater drain out from the back side of the unit bottom.)
- Once the air conditioner is placed, extend both the left and right accordion panels to the width of the window.
- Place the frame lock between the extended accordion panels and the window sill. Screw a 3/4” (19mm) locking screw through the frame lock anc into the window sill.
- Drive 1/2” screws into the top of the accordion panel frame and the top rail to securely attach the window air conditioner to the lower sash.
To secure the lower sash into place, use the sash lock and a 3/4” screw as shown below.
For added insulation, cut the supplied insulation foam to the width of the
window.
Insert the foam between the window sashes to prevent air and objects from
getting into the room.
