4.7 Installation notes regarding refrigerant
Caution Note that the refrigerant has no odour.
▪
Do not cut, pierce, or burn the refrigerant container or pipes.
▪
Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process for example with an open flame or other methods besides the heat pump´s
defrosting program.
▪
Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel for handling the refrigerant. Additionally, reference the regulations and laws.
▪
When mechanical ventilation is required, ventilation openings shall be kept clear of obstruction.
▪
Do not work in a confined place.
▪
The following checks shall be performed for installation: The ventilation devices and outlets are operating normally and are not
obstructed. Markings and signs on the equipment shall be visible and legible.
▪
Upon leakage of the refrigerant, ventilate the room. When the leaked refrigerant is exposed to flame, it may cause generation of
toxic gases.
▪
Make sure that the work area is safe from flammable substances.
▪
The units are not explosion proof so they must be installed with no risk of explosion.
▪
This product contains fluorinated gases that contribute to global greenhouse effect. Accordingly, do not vent gases into the atmos-
phere.
▪
For installation with handling the refrigerant (R32), use dedicated tools and piping materials.
▪
Servicing and installation shall be performed as recommended by the manufacturer. In case other skilled persons are joined for
servicing, it shall be carried out under supervision of the person who is competent in handling flammable refrigerants.
▪
Servicing shall be performed following the controlled procedure to minimize the risk of flammable refrigerant or gases.
▪
Do not install where there is a risk of combustible gas leakage.
▪
After installation, check for leakage. Toxic gas may be generated and if it comes into contact with an ignition source such as fan
heater, stove, and cooker cylinders, make sure that only the refrigerant recovery cylinders are used.
▪
Never directly touch any accidental leaking refrigerant. This could result in severe wounds caused by frostbite.
