SAFETY PRECAUTION
4- Safety Precaution
1- Personal Protection:
Air conditioning systems offers chemic, mechanic
and electric risks.
It is mandatory to wear IPE (Individual Protection
Equipment), picture 1 to protect yourself from
refrigerant gas, refrigerant oil, battery acid, waste
launched, engine high temperature and noise.
2- High Pressure:
The refrigerant in liquid state and high pressure
causes a potential risk. When the refrigerant is
sprayed to natural air, it can cause serious injuries to
eyes and skin.
3- Hoses:
Check if manometer hoses are in good conditions,
when holding them; stay far from belts, pulleys and
hot surfaces.
4- Hot Surface:
The compressor discharges, exhaust pipes and other
engine components can be extremely hot.
5- Rotation Components:
The fans, pulleys and belts are not visible under
certain conditions. Special care must be taken when
putting your hands near them.
6- Welding:
Welding must be done carefully; it causes burns and
spray toxic gases out. Provide ventilated places to
do it.
7- Toxic Gases:
The refrigerant gas along with flame becomes into
toxic gases and can cause very serious breathing
illness. Take special care in closed places, if gases
scape somehow (leakage) and then it can cause no
toxygen in the air.
Other Care:
• When handling and going up and down stairs, ladders and platforms, you can
slide or they can break.
• Wear a seat belt always when working over 1.5m high.
• Never apply heat in recipients or pressured lines.
• Never operate the equipment if discharge service valve is closed.
• The refrigeration oil can cause irritation to your skin and eyes.
• Check if every screw are long enough and right tight.
• Components that are not in good conditions must be replaced by new
ones due to safety reasons.
