4.5 Operator Safety
Refrigerant fluids can cause blindness and other physical
injuries.
Due to their low boiling temperature (approximately - 22 °F or -
30 °C), refrigerants can cause cold burns when they come into
contact with the skin.
Safety Measures:
•
The operator must avoid inhaling the vapors of the refrigerant liquids; use appropriate
protection when required.
•
The operator is required to wear appropriate safety glasses and gloves that prevent direct
contact with the refrigerants.
•
Do not use the equipment near open flames, sparks, hot surfaces: the refrigerant decomposes
at high temperatures, letting off toxic chemical substances that are harmful to people and the
environment.
The equipment has been designed to be steady both when being
moved and once it is positioned.
However, you must pay attention while moving it.
Safety Measures:
•
Do not tilt the equipment in any way.
•
Do not step on the equipment.
•
Do not hang loads that may compromise the stability of the equipment, causing it to tip over.
•
To move the equipment, use the specific handle only and balance the station on its wheels.
•
Avoid moving it on uneven surfaces.
The equipment was designed to be electrically safe and to work
with specific supply voltage levels.
Improper use may expose the operator to the risk of electric
shock, even though of low intensity.
Safety Measures:
•
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment during all the operating phases.
•
Do not handle or touch the equipment or any accessories (e.g. cables) with wet hands.
•
Do not use extension cords to power the equipment.
