Refrigerant Safety

ASHRAE Standards 15-2010 and 34-2010 offer guidelines that address refrigerant safety and the maximum allowable concentration of

refrigerant in an occupied space. Refrigerant will dissipate into the atmosphere, but a certain volume of air is required for this to occur safely.

For R410A refrigerant, the maximum allowable concentration of refrigerant is twenty-six (26) lbs. per 1,000 cubic feet of an occupied space.

Buildings with twenty-four (24) hour occupancy allow half of that concentration.

ASHRAE Standards 15 and 34 assume that if a system develops a leak, its entire refrigerant charge will dump into the area where the leak

occurs. To meet ASHRAE Standards 15 and 34, calculate the refrigerant concentration that may occur in the smallest room volume on the

system, and compare the results to the maximum allowable concentration number.

Also consult state and local codes in regards to refriger-

ant safety.

WARNING

Verify the maximum refrigerant concentration level in the space where the indoor unit will be mounted meets the concentration limit for the application.

There is risk of asphyxiation from oxygen deprivation.

Brazing

Note:

It is imperative to keep the piping system free of contaminants and debris such as copper burrs, slag, or carbon dust during installation.

1. All joints are brazed in the field. Multi V IV refrigeration system components contain very small capillary tubes, small orifices, electronic

expansion valves, oil separators, and heat exchangers that can easily become blocked. Proper system operation depends on the

installer using best practices and utmost care while assembling the piping system.

• Store pipe stock in a dry place and keep stored pipe capped and clean.

• Purge all pipe sections clean with dry nitrogen prior to assembly.

2. Proper system operation depends on the installer using best practices and the utmost care while assembling the piping system.

• Use adapters to assemble different sizes of pipe.

• Always use a non-oxidizing material for brazing. Do not use ux, soft solder, or anti-oxidant agents. If the proper material is not used,

oxidized lm may accumulate and clog or damage the compressors. Flux can harm the copper piping or refrigerant oil.

• Use a tubing cutter; do not use a saw to cut pipe. De-bur and clean all cuts before assembly.

3. Brazing joints:

• Use a dry nitrogen purge operating at a minimum pressure of three (3) psig and maintain a steady ow.

• Use a 15% silver phosphorous copper brazing alloy to avoid overheating and produce good ow.

• Protect isolation valves, electronic expansion valves, and other heat-sensitive control components from excessive heat with a wet rag or

heat barrier spray.
