■ Specific warnings on the R32 refrigerant
The R32 refrigerant:
- is odourless;
- is slightly inflammable (A2L), but only in the presence of flames;
- Risk of explosion at air concentrations between the lower and upper flammability levels of the
fluid, see refrigerant data sheet above.
It is essential to follow the following guidelines:
- do not smoke near to the appliance ;
- put up no smoking signs near to the appliance ;
- make sure that the installation location is well ventilated
- do not pierce or burn the appliance ;
- do not position the appliance near to ignition sources, such as naked flames, electric heaters,
etc.;
- any special work or repairs to the appliance must be carried out by specialised technicians
or qualified personnel;
■ R32 refrigerant load
The procedures described below must only be performed by specialised technicians or
qualified personnel
:
- ensure that other types de refrigerant do not contaminate the R32;
- keep the gas bottle in a vertical position when loading it;
- put a suitable label on the unit after loading it;
- do not load more refrigerant gas than needed;
- before loading, search for leaks before carrying out an operating test. This operation has two
purposes, to control the quantity of refrigerant loaded and to check the circuit for leaks,
- after the operating test, we recommend carrying out another leak test,
■ Eliminating the R32 refrigerant
Follow the standardised procedures
for collecting refrigerants, which may only be carried
out by specialised technicians or qualified personnel, and return it to the supplier
.
■ Installation precaution related to the refrigerant
If local construction codes or safety standards don’t exist, the information shown below are
taken from the standard EN378: 2016 may be used for information; they may be used as a
guide for the safe use of machines that use R32 as a refrigerant.
