Take special care that drained refrigerant will
not float back into the building.

- Purge the refrigerant circuit with nitrogen for
5 min.

AGE FOR UNITS THAT EMPLOY FLAMMA-
BLE REFRIGERANTS
TRANSPORT OF EQUIPMENT CONTAINING
FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS
- Attention is drawn to the fact that additional
transportation regulations may exist with
respect to equipment containing flammable
gas. The maximum number of pieces of
equipment or the configuration of the equip-
ment, permitted to be transported together
will be determined by the applicable transport
regulations.
MARKING OF EQUIPMENT USING SIGNS
- Signs for similar appliances used in a work
area generally are addressed by local regula-
tions and give the minimum requirements for
the provision of safety and/or health signs for
a work location.
- All required signs are to be maintained and
employers should ensure that employees
receive suitable and sufficient instruction and
training on the meaning of appropriate safety
signs and the actions that need to be taken in
connection with these signs.
- The effectiveness of signs should not be
diminished by too many signs being placed
together.
- Any pictograms used should be as simple as
possible and contain only essential details.
