TRANSPORTATION, MARKING AND STORAGE FOR UNITS THAT EMPLOY FLAMMABLE REFRIGE-
RANTS
Transport of equipment containing flammable refrigerants
Attention is drawn to the fact that additional transportation regulations may exist with respect to equip-
ment containing flammable gas. The maximum number of pieces of equipment or the configuration of
the equipment, permitted to be transported together will be determined by the applicable transport re-
gulations. .
Marking of equipment using signs
Signs for similar appliances used in a work area generally are addressed by local regulations and give the
minimum requirements for the provision of safety and/or health signs for a work location. All required
signs are to be maintained and employers should ensure that employees receive suitable and sufficient in-
struction and training on the meaning of appropriate safety signs and the actions that need to be taken in
connection with these signs. The effectiveness of signs should not be diminished by too many signs being
placed together. Any pictograms used should be as simple as possible and contain only essential details.
Disposal of equipment using flammable refrigerants
See national regulations.
Storage of equipment/appliances
The storage of equipment should be in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Storage of pac-
ked (unsold) equipment Storage package protection should be constructed such that mechanical da-
mage to the equipment inside the package will not cause a leak of the refrigerant charge. The maximum
number of pieces of equipment permitted to be stored together will be determined by local regulations.
