Safety; Installation - Profroid SOLO XS serie Handbuch

Safety

As professional, the installer must:
1. Define the operating conditions of the refrigeration equipment
under his own responsibility regarding the design. This device
needs to be incorporated in machines conforming to the
Machines Directive. Its commissioning is only authorized if it
has been incorporated in machines which fully satisfy the legal
regulations.
2. Complete and adapt these recommendations, if necessary, by
adding other safeties and /or controls according to the refrige-
ration equipment's operating conditions.
3. have performed all the installing, commissioning and mainte-
nance operations by qualified professionals and conforming
with standards EN 378, EN 14276, EN 13136, EN 13313, EN
60204 and EN 60335, the EU directives, the safety rules gene-
rally recognized, sound engineering practice, the local regula-
tions; as well as those which may be set up, taking into
account the evolution of the technology and the regulations.
If the installation, the commissioning, the operating, the mainte-
nance are not realised according to this operating instructions,
the responsibility of Profroid cannot be involved.
4. completely inform the customer on the control, maintenance
and follow-up of the refrigeration equipment.
The devices are delivered under pressurized nitrogen or dry air
(make sure at reception that material is under pressure by using a
pressure gauge); except dry cooler, brine air cooler.
Respect the standard for transport and handling of pressure devi-
ces.
Install device in a space with sufficient ventilation regarding stan-
dards and regulations because device is under pressure of nitro-
gen; except dry cooler, brine air cooler.
Very important: before performing any servicing operation on refri-
geration equipment, the electric power supply must be turned off.
The contractor or the company in charge of the installation shall be
responsible for carrying out the required instructions.
Profroid disclaims any responsibility for change(s) or repair(s) on
its devices made without its prior agreement. The devices are
exclusively intended for professionals, for refrigeration purposes
and for their limits of use.
The identification of device and his range of use are written on the
name plate. The name plate is stuck on device. Name plates are
located: on the coil for heat exchangers, on the frame for racks, on
the housing for condensing units, on the receiver for liquid receiver
sets and for liquid sub-assembly. The name plate is joined to this
operating instructions (.pdf). The complete installation must be
designed and used not to exceed the range of use. Device is desi-
gned for a maximum ambient temperature of 38 °C (as standard
configuration).
The user or operator shall ensure the control and maintenance of
the equipment with qualified professional complying with the
instructions below, possibly completed by the installer. For these
operations, the standards and directives mentioned above remain
usefull.
This is also available during the stop of the refrigeration installation.
The average life cycle for the design of our devices is of a mini-
mum of 10 years, provided if you follow our operating instructions.
Profroid cannot be held responsible in case of violation to the
recommendations of them.
Pipings of Profroid equipment are made with different types:
- in copper, standard NF EN 12735;
- in steel, standard NF EN 10216-2 (type P265GH; n° 1.0425);
- in stainless steel, standard NF EN 10217-7
(type 304L – X2CrNi18-9; n° 1.4307).
These pipings must be inspected regularly following standards,
sound engineering practice and local regulations in the country of
use.
Some heat transfer fluids can be harmful or corrosive, and their
uses must be realised in relation with their risks, if there is a leak
on pipings.

Installation

1. The loading and unloading operations must be performed with
adequate handling equipment (forklift, crane, etc.) using possi-
ble lifting points provided for this purpose.
2. The qualified professional should be certified and will wear indi-
vidual safety equipment (protective gloves, glasses, safety
shoes, etc.); operators will never circulate under the load
during lifting operations.
3. During handling, the operator will ensure a good balance to
prevent the equipment from swinging.
4. Make sure that the equipment or its accessories have not been
damaged during shipping and no parts are missing.
5. If devices are used in a seismic area, then the installer must
apply all necessary rules.
6. If the appliance is installed in an area for which consideration of
the external fire situation is mandatory, then the installer must
make the necessary arrangements.
7. Enough free space all around the refrigeration equipment
should be provided to facilitate maintenance operations.
8. The heat exchangers must be installed in locations free of any
external dust or other pollutants from the neighbourhood which
could obstruct or clog the coils.
9. If devices are used in a corrosive area (sea side, pollutant gas,
etc.), make sure that appropriate anticorrosion protection has
been provided.
10. Make sure that pipings are connected to the appropriate pres-
surized equipment (EN378-2).
11. All connecting pipings must be correctly supported and clam-
ped.
12. For the connection of pipings, protect sensitive components
located around the permanent assemblies to be made.
13. Before any intervention, the operator must obstruct all the ope-
nings of the circuit (+ pressurization under nitrogen); except dry
cooler, brine air cooler.
14. Discharge pipings (outlets of safety valve for example) must be
installed in view to protect people and apparatus from leakage
of refrigerant.
15. Make sure that flexible hoses are not in contact with metal
parts.
16. The products added for thermal and /or acoustic insulation
must be neutral with respect to support materials.
17. The protection devices, pipings and accessories must be pro-
tected against unfavourable effects from the environment.
18. Make sure that access and emergency exit ways are not
obstructed to comply with the local regulations.
