INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPAIRING DEVICES CONTAINER R290
i) GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1.1. Work area controls:
Before starting to work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are
necessary to minimize any risk of ignition.
To repair the refrigeration system, the following precautionary measures must be observed
before performing any work on the system.
1.2. Procedure for carrying out the work:
The work must be carried out according to a controlled procedure, so as to reduce to a minimum
any risk of the presence of flammable gases or vapors during the execution of the work.
1.3. General working area:
All maintenance personnel and others working in the local area should be informed of the
nature of the work being performed. Work in confined spaces should be avoided. The area
around the workspace should be partitioned. Make sure that conditions in the area have been
made safe by checking flammable materials.
1.4. Checking the presence of refrigerant:
The area should be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector before and during work to
ensure that the technician is aware of the existence of potentially flammable atmospheres.
Make sure that the leak detection equipment used is suitable for flammable refrigerants, i.e. that
it does not generate sparks, is properly sealed or is intrinsically safe.
1.5. Presence of extinguisher:
If hot work is to be performed on refrigeration equipment or any associated part, suitable fire
extinguishing equipment must be available. Have a dry powder or CO2 extinguisher near the
charging area.
