Warning values for used oils
The listed polyolester oils are categorized as group KD according to DIN51503, Part 1. To determine the used con-
dition of the oil, e.g. with respect to water content or total acid number (TAN), the reference values of DIN 51503,
Part 2, apply.

When using A2L refrigerants
WARNING
Risk of refrigerant evaporation from the used oil.
Increased risk with A2L refrigerants due to flammability!
Used oil may still contain relatively high percentages of dissolved refrigerant even at atmospheric pressure.
Transport and storage: Fill used oil into a pressure-resistant vessel. Store under a nitrogen atmosphere
(holding charge).
Elastomer compatibility
Relevant literature recommends the following seaI materials for polyolester oils (POE) with HFC and HFO refriger-
ants:
• acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, nitrile content >36%
• hydrogenated acrylonitrile butadiene rubber, nitrile content >36%
• ethylene propylene diene rubber
