A LOOK AT SERVICE SAFETY
General Service Safety Precautions
5
➤
Use a pressure regulating valve and pressure
gauges.
Commercial cylinders of nitrogen contain
pressures in excess of 2000 PSIG at 70°F. At
pressures much lower than 2000 PSIG, com-
pressors can explode and cause serious injury
or death. To avoid overpressurizing the system,
always use a pressure regulating valve on the
nitrogen cylinder discharge (see Figure 1-7).
The pressure regulator must be able to reduce
the pressure down to 1 or 2 PSIG and main-
tain this pressure.
The regulating valve must be equipped with
two pressure gauges:
•
one gauge to measure cylinder pressure,
and
•
one gauge to measure discharge or down-
stream pressure.
➤
Use a pressure relief valve.
In addition to a pressure regulating valve and
gauges, always install a pressure relief valve.
This can also be a frangible disc type pressure
relief device. This device should have a dis-
charge port of at least 1/2” MPT size. The
valve or frangible disc device must be set to
release at 175 PSIG (see Figure 1-7).
➤
Do not pressurize the system beyond 150
PSIG field leak test pressure.
When field testing a system for leaks, 150
PSIG is adequate test pressure.
➤
Disconnect nitrogen cylinder and evacuate
the system before connecting the refrigerant
container.
Disconnect the nitrogen cylinder and release
the pressure in the system before connecting a
refrigerant container to the system. The higher
pressure gas in the system can explode the
refrigerant container.
VII.
System Charging
Failure to properly charge the system can result in
serious injury or death from explosion or fire.
Follow these precautions when charging a system:
➤
Do not operate the compressor without
charge in the system.
Operating the compressor without a charge in
the system can damage the hermetic terminal.
As always, to avoid serious injury or death
from terminal venting with ignition, never
energize the compressor unless the protective
terminal cover is securely fastened.
➤
Use proper refrigerant.
Use only the serial label refrigerant when
charging the system. Using a different refriger-
ant can lead to excess system pressure and an
explosion. Use of a refrigerant other than the
serial label refrigerant will void the compressor
warranty.
➤
Do not overcharge a refrigeration or air con-
ditioning system.
Overcharging a refrigeration or air condition-
ing system can result in an explosion. To avoid
serious injury or death, never overcharge the
system. Always use proper charging tech-
niques. Limit charge amounts to those speci-
fied on the system equipment serial label or in
Figure 1-7.
