Refrigerant emission
control
In respect of the environment all
service operation must use recovery
systems to minimize losses of
refrigerant to the atmosphere when
servicing units with HFC
refrigerants.
Leak check and inspect all relief
devices in accordance with national
regulation.
Handling refrigerant
Heavy concentration of refrigerant
within a confined area can displace
enough oxygen to cause suffocation.
Do not weld or flamecut in an
atmosphere containing refrigerant
vapor until the area has been well
ventilated.
Avoid breathing refrigerant fumes.
Hazardous voltage
Disconnect and lockout or tagout all
electrical power, including
remote disconnects before
