---Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to any
substance which may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless the components are constructed of
materials which 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. lf a fault exists that could compromise safety, then no electrical supply shall be connected to the
circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. lf 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.
lnitial safety checks shall include:
---That capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking;
---That no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system;
---That there is continuity of earth bonding.
Repairs to 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. lf 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 originai 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 to the point 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 can inhibit the effectiveness of some types of leak detection equipment.
lntrinsically 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.
lntrinsically safe components are the only types that can be worked on while live in the presence of a flammable
atmosphere. The test apparatus shall beat 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 searching 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 all refrigerant systems.
Electronic leak detectors may be used to detect refrigerant leaks but, in the case of flammable refrigerants, 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 chiarine
shall be avoided as the chiarine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work. If a leak is
suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/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. For appliances
containing flammable refrigerants, 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, for flammable refrigerants it is important that best practice is followed since flammability is a
consideration. The following procedure shall be adhered to:
