Safety Warnings

This manual contains safety instructions that must be followed during installation and maintenance of the unit. Read this manual before 

installing or operating this unit.

NOTE:

 Installation and maintenance should be performed only by qualified personnel who are familiar with local codes and regulations 

and who have experience with this type of equipment.

DANGER

 

!

LOCK OUT/LABEL all power sources before starting, pressurizing, depressurizing or shutting down the chiller. 
Disconnect electrical power before servicing equipment. More than one disconnection may be required to deenergize the unit. 

Failure to follow this warning to the letter can result in serious injury or death. Be sure to read and understand the installation, 

operating and service instructions in this manual.

!

 DANGER 

!

Danger indicates a dangerous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

!

 WARNING 

!

Warning indicates a potentially dangerous situation which may result in property damage, personal injury or death if not avoided

CAUTION 

!

Caution indicates a potentially dangerous situation which may result in minor injury or equipment damage if not avoided.

WARNING

 !

Electric shock danger. Improper handling of this equipment can cause personal injury or equipment damage. This equipment must 

be properly grounded. Control panel connections and maintenance should be performed only by personnel knowledgeable in the 

operation of the equipment being controlled. Disconnect electrical power before servicing equipment.

!

 WARNING 

!

If refrigerant leaks from the unit, there is a potential choking danger as the refrigerant will displace air in the immediate area. Be 

sure to follow all applicable published industry-related standards and local, state, and federal statutes, regulations, and codes if 

refrigerant is produced. Avoid exposing refrigerant to an open flame or other ignition source.

WARNING 

!

Polyolester oil, commonly referred to as POE oil, is a synthetic oil used in many refrigeration systems and may be present in this 

Clima Flex product. POE oil, if it ever comes in contact with PCV/CPVC, will coat the inside wall of the PVC/CPVC pipe and cause 

environmental stress fractures. Although there is no PCV/CPCV pipe in this product, keep this in mind when selecting piping materials 

for your application, as system failure and property damage could occur. Consult the pipe manufacturer’s recommendations to 

determine appropriate pipe applications.

!

 CAUTION 

!

Static sensitive components. Static discharge during handling of the electronic circuit board can cause damage to components. 

Use a static strap before performing any service work. Never unplug any cables, circuit board terminal blocks, or power plugs while 

power is applied to the panel.

!

 CAUTION 

!

When moving refrigerant to/from the cooler using an auxiliary tank, a grounding strap should be used. An electrical charge builds 

up when halo-carbon refrigerant travels in a rubber hose. A grounding strap should be used between the auxiliary refrigerant tank 

and the cooler end sheet (ground to ground), which will safely carry the charge to ground. Failure to follow this procedure may result 

in damage to sensitive electronic components.
