Safety regulations for extraction and filling systems

WARNING: Incorrect handling of air conditioning servicing equipment.
  • Unnecessary damage to the environment due to emerging refrigerant.

→ Before connecting the filling system to the air-conditioning system, make sure that the manual shut-off valves are closed.

→ Before disconnecting the filling system from the air-conditioning system, make sure that the process is complete so that no refrigerant can escape into the atmosphere.

→ After the purified refrigerant has been filled into an external compressed gas bottle from the filling system, the manual shut-off valves on the bottle and on the filling system should be closed.

→ Do not expose the filling system to moisture or use in a damp environment.

→ Shut off the power supply at the filling system before carrying out maintenance work.

→ An extension cable with cross-sectional area of at least 2.5 mm2 should be used only when absolutely necessary.

→ In the case of fire, the external bottle should be removed.

→ Fill the oil extracted from the air-conditioning system into a suitable closable container (the refrigerant oil contains small quantities of refrigerant).

→ The filling system must be secured to prevent it from rolling away.

→ Set down and use the air conditioning servicing equipment with refrigerant R1234yf only in cool, well-ventilated places.

→ Protect from heat and direct sunlight and do not set down and use in areas with temperatures above 50 °C.

→ Do not set down and use in or near cellars or other lower-lying areas.

→ Only set down and use in areas with adequate air flow (complete air exchange at least once per hour in the workshop area and 3 times per hour in lower-lying areas, e.g. in assembly groups).
