Liebert XDV General Safety Guidelines, Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas Requirements-European Union

GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

! WARNING

Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.

Disconnect local and remote power supplies before working within.

Before proceeding with installation of XD cooling unit’s, read all instructions, verify that all the parts are included, and check the nameplate to be sure the XD cooling unit’s voltage matches available utility power.

Follow all local codes.

! WARNING

Risk of unit falling over when installed on top of cabinet. Can cause property damage, injury or death.

The XDV is top-heavy. Use extreme caution and care when moving and installing this unit.

! WARNING

Risk of explosive discharge. Can cause equipment damage, injury or death.

Closing service valves may isolate liquid refrigerant, causing high pressure and rupture of piping. Do not close valves without follow recommended procedures for repair, maintenance and replacement of components. Installing pressure relief valves in field piping that may become isolated by service valves.

NOTE

This document must be used together with site specific documentation and documentation for other parts of the system (heat rejection devices and cooling modules).

NOTE

Before any action that could cause a disturbance in the Liebert XD system’s cooling function is begun, the facility manager MUST be informed. In addition, after the action is taken and the work is finished, the facility manager MUST be informed.

Fluorinated Greenhouse Gas Requirements—European Union

Stationary air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pump equipments and stationary fire protection sys- tems in the European Community market and operating with fluorinated greenhouse gases (f-gas), such as R407C, R134a, R410A, must comply with the F-Gas Regulation: (EC) No. 842/2006 (F-gas). The regulation prohibits, among other actions, venting fluorinated greenhouse gases to the atmo- sphere.

The F-Gas Regulation also requires operators to use use all measures that are technically feasible and do not entail disproportionate cost to prevent leakage of these gases, to test for leakage regularly and to recover f-gas during equipment service and maintenance and before disposing of equipment.

Refer to the full regulation for additional details.
