SERVICE

Preliminary fire safety checks
Safety checks should be carried out before working on systems containing flammable refrigerants to minimize the risk of ignition.
The following safety measures should be applied before and during the time a cooling system is repaired.

Working method

The work must be carried out in accordance with the established procedures designed to minimize the risk of flammable gas or vapor in the area when the work is carried out.

Work area
All maintenance personnel and other personnel working or present in the area must be informed of the type of work being carried out.
Avoid working in confined/enclosed areas. The area around the workplace must be cordoned off. Check that there are no flammable materials in the work area.

Checking for refrigerant

Before and during the work area must be checked with a suitable refrigerant detector so that a flammable atmosphere is detected immediately. Check that the refrigerant
the detector used is suitable for flammable refrigerant – non-sparking, adequately sealed, and intrinsically safe.

Fire extinguisher
Suitable fire extinguishing equipment (powder or CO2 extinguisher) must be available if hot work is carried out on the cooling system or parts of it.

No sources of heat
Under no circumstances must sources of heat be used in a way that can result in a risk of fire and/or explosion during work that involves exposure of conduits or components that contain, or have contained, flammable refrigerant. All potential sources of heat, including lit cigarettes, must be kept at a safe distance from workplaces where installation, repairs, dismantling, scrapping or other work can involve the release of flammable refrigerant Check before starting the work that the area around the dehumidifier is free from
flammable material and the risk of ignition. Smoking prohibited signs must be put up.

Ventilation
Make sure the workplace is well ventilated (or if possible move the product outdoors) before opening the system or doing any hot work. The ventilation or exhaust system must always be running while work is in progress and have a sufficient capacity to safely remove any released refrigerant, preferably to the outdoor air.

**Checking the cooling system

**

When replacing electrical components the replacement components must be of the right type and have the right technical data. The manufacturer’s service and maintenance
instructions must always be followed. Contact the manufacturer in the event of any problems or questions.

Check the following on installations that use flammable refrigerants.

  • Check that the amount of refrigerant does not exceed the permitted amount for the room where the dehumidifier is installed.
  • Check that the ventilation system is working and that the ventilation openings are not blocked.
  • If an indirect refrigerant circuit is used, check that there is refrigerant in the secondary circuit.
  • Check that all the markings on the dehumidifier are legible. Replace any missing or illegible markings.
  • Check that piping and components containing refrigerant are installed in such a way as to minimize the risk of exposure to corrosive substances, are made of corrosion-proof materials, or provided with adequate corrosion protection.

Checking and repairing electrical components

The following safety measures must be taken when repairing and maintaining electrical components. Do not supply the system with voltage until any faults that compromise safety have been rectified. Find a temporary solution if the system cannot be stopped and there are faults that cannot be rectified immediately. Notify the system owner of any such temporary solutions. Safety checks before starting should include checking that:

  • The condensers are discharged (discharge with a safe, non-sparking method).
  • No live parts or wires are exposed during filling, emptying, or spooling of the system.
  • The earthing is intact.

Repair of sealed components

  1. Disconnect the power supply to sealed components before they are opened. If the work requires the power to remain on there must be a leakage detection system at the most critical points to trigger an alarm immediately if a risk situation occurs.
  2. Take care when working with electrical components not to damage the casings and grommets etc. in order to maintain the enclosure rating.
  • Pay attention to damaged cables, terminals that deviate from the original version, damaged seals and grommets, etc.
  • Check that electrical component are firmly in place and correctly connected.
  • Check that seals and sealing compounds do not show signs of fatigue or other damage, or otherwise fail to seal a flammable atmosphere.
    Replacement parts must correspond to the specifications of the manufacturer.

NOTE:
Silicone sealing compound can reduce the sensitivity of some types of leakage detection systems.
Intrinsically safe components do not need to be insulated before working on them.

Repair of intrinsically safe components

Do not connect inductive or capacitive loads to the circuit without first checking that this will not exceed the maximum voltage or current to the dehumidifier. Intrinsically safe components are the only components on which work can be carried out in a flammable atmosphere when supplied with voltage. Check that all the testing and measuring equipment has the right measuring range and correct specifications. Only use spare parts recommended by the manufacturer. The use of other spare parts can result in the risk of ignition of any leaking refrigerant.

Wiring
Check that no cables have been subjected to wear, corrosion, pinching, vibration, sharp edges, or other damage. Take into consideration other long- term effects of normal material fatigue or continuous vibration caused by compressors or fans.

Leakage detection – flammable refrigerant
Potential sources of ignition must under no circumstances be used to detect leakage in refrigerant circuits. Do not use leakage detection equipment with a naked flame.

Leakage detection

The following leakage detection methods can be used for dehumidifiers with flammable refrigerants. Electronic leakage detectors can be used to detect flammable refrigerants, but their sensitivity can be insufficient and they may need to be recalibrated. Calibration of leakage detection equipment must be done in a refrigerant-free environment. Make sure that the leakage detection equipment is not a potential source of ignition and that it suits the refrigerant in use. The leakage detection equipment must be set to a suitable percentage (max 25%) of the lower flammable limit (LFL) and must be calibrated to the refrigerant in use. Leakage detection fluids are suitable for use with most refrigerants, but the use of detergent containing chlorine should be avoided because chlorine can react with the refrigerant and corrode copper pipes. Extinguish or remove all naked flames if leakage is suspected. If refrigerant leakage that requires hard soldering is detected, drain and contain all the refrigerant from the system, or insulate (with stop valves) in a part of the system at a safe distance from the leakage. Flush the system with oxygen-free nitrogen (OFN) both before and during the soldering work.

Dismantling and emptying

In view of the risk of fire, take all standard procedures and praxis if the refrigerant circuit needs to be opened for repair or other purposes. Follow the instructions below.

  1. Drain off the refrigerant.
  2. Flush the circuit with inert gas.
  3.  Empty.
  4. Flush the circuit again with inert gas.
  5. Open the refrigerant circuit with a sharp-edged or thermal tool Collect up the refrigerant in an approved container. The system must be flushed with oxygen-free nitrogen gas to make it safe. This flushing may need to be repeated several times.  Compressed air or oxygen must not be used to flush the system. Flushing must be carried out by releasing the vacuum in the system with oxygen-free nitrogen, which flows in the system until normal working pressure is reached, after which the system is ventilated to the outside air and then vacuum pumped. This procedure must be repeated until there is no longer any refrigerant in the system. After filling with oxygen-free nitrogen for the last time the system must be ventilated down to atmospheric pressure so that the work can be done. The procedure is unavoidable if hard soldering is to be carried out. Check that the vacuum pump outlet is not placed near any sources of ignition and that the area around the outlet is well ventilated.

Filling

The following measures must be taken in addition to the standard procedures for conventional filling.

  • Make sure that contamination of different refrigerants cannot occur when using the filling equipment. Keep hoses and pipes as short as possible to minimize their content of refrigerant.
  • Gas cylinders must be upright.
  • Make sure that the refrigerant system is earthed before filling the refrigerant. Label the system when the filling is ready (if this has not already been done).
  • Be careful when filling with refrigerant, so as not to overfill the system.
  • The system must be pressure tested with oxygen-free nitrogen before filling with refrigerant. The system must be checked for leakage after filling refrigerant and before commissioning. A follow-up leakage check must be made after commissioning and before the service technicians hand over the installation.

Decommissioning

The technician that decommissions the system must be familiar with the system and its parts. All the refrigerant must be contained in a safe way. Accumulated refrigerant and oil may need to be analyzed before it is reused. For this reason, take an oil and refrigerant sample before decommissioning. There must be a power supply in place before the decommissioning is started.

  1. Familiarise yourself with the controls on the product and how to use them.
  2. Disconnect the power supply to the system.
  3. Before continuing with the decommissioning, check that: – Mechanical equipment to handle refrigerant cylinders are available and that all the necessary personal protective equipment is in place, plus a person authorized to monitor the equipment and refrigerant inline with the applicable standards.
  4. Pump as much refrigerant as possible out of the system.
  5. If it is not possible to pump down to a vacuum, make a branch pipe so that the refrigerant can be removed from the different parts of the system.
  6. Make sure to place the refrigerant cylinders on the scale before pumping and containing them.
  7. Start and use the equipment in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
  8. Do not overfill – the refrigerant cylinders can be filled up to 80% of their volume.
  9. Never exceed the maximum permitted working pressure for the refrigerant cylinders, not even temporarily.
  10. When the cylinders have been correctly filled and the process is completed all the stop valves must be closed and the equipment and cylinders removed from the area without delay.
  11. Collected refrigerant must not be filled in a cooling system until it has been purified and checked.

Marking

Decommissioned equipment must be labeled to indicate that it has been decommissioned and emptied of refrigerant. The labeling must be dated and signed. The equipment must also be labeled to indicated that it contains flammable refrigerant.

Collecting refrigerant

When a cooling system is to be emptied of refrigerant prior to service/repair or decommissioning the refrigerant must be collected and contained in a safe way.

  • Before collecting, check that there is a sufficient number of cylinders for all the refrigerants in the system. Only cylinders intended for the actual type of refrigerant must be used and they must be labeled for this type of refrigerant. The cylinders must be provided with functional pressure release and stop valves. Empty cylinders must be vacuum pumped and if possible cooled before the collecting starts.
  • The equipment must be in good condition and suitable for collecting flammable refrigerant, and the instructions for it must also be available.
  • Calibrated and well-functioning scales must also be available. Hoses must be in good condition and provided with sealed couplings. Check before connecting and using the collection equipment that it is in good condition, well maintained, and fully functional, and that the electrical components are sealed so that any released refrigerant does not risk ignition. Contact the manufacturer in the event of any problems or questions.
  • Collected refrigerant must be returned to the manufacturer in the right kind of cylinders and provided with the correct waste and recycling labels. Do not mix different types of refrigerant in the same collecting equipment, and especially not in the same cylinder. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed the compressors must be emptied to a level that ensures there is no flammable refrigerant left in the oil before they are returned to the manufacturer. Electric heating of the compressor can take place to speed up draining the oil, but no other heating methods are permissible. The oil must be drained by a safe method.
