DD.4.10 Checks to electrical devices —
Repair and maintenance to electrical components P
shall include initial safety checks and component
inspection procedures.
If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then P
no electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit
until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the fault cannot
be corrected immediately but it is necessary to
continue operation, an adequate temporary solution
shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner
of the equipment so all parties are advised.
Initial safety checks shall include: —
that capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in P
a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking;

Tel : +66 2 765 2888 Fax : +66 2 765 2889

IEC 60335-2-40
that no live electrical components and wiring are P

exposed while charging, recovering or purging the
system;
that there is continuity of earth bonding. P
DD.5 Repairs to sealed components —
DD.5.1 During repairs to sealed components, all electrical N/A
supplies shall be disconnected from the equipment
being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed
covers, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have an
electrical supply to equipment during servicing,
then a permanently operating form of leak detection
shall be located at the most critical point to warn of
a potentially hazardous situation.
DD.5.2 Particular attention shall be paid to the following to N/A
ensure that by working on electrical components,
the casing is not altered in such a way that the level
of protection is affected. This shall include damage
to cables, excessive number of connections,
terminals not made to original specification,
damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc.
Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not N/A
degraded to the point that they no longer serve the
purpose of preventing the ingress of flammable
atmospheres.
Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the N/A
manufacturer’s specifications.
DD.6 Repair to intrinsically safe components —
Do not apply any permanent inductive or P
capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring
that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and
current permitted for the equipment in use.
Intrinsically safe components are the only types P
that can be worked on while live in the presence of
a flammable atmosphere. The test apparatus shall
be at the correct rating.
Replace components only with parts specified by P
the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the
ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
DD.7 Cabling —
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, P
corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp
edges or any other adverse environmental effects.
The check shall also take into account the effects of P
aging or continual vibration from sources such as
compressors or fans.
DD.8 Detection of flammable refrigerants —

Tel : +66 2 765 2888 Fax : +66 2 765 2889
www.intertek.com
IEC 60335-2-40
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of P

ignition be used in the searching for or detection of
refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other
detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.
Electronic leak detectors may be used to detect P
refrigerant leaks but, in the case of flammable
refrigerants, the sensitivity may not be adequate, or
may need re-calibration.
Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of P
ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used.
Leak detection equipment shall be set at a
percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and shall
be calibrated to the refrigerant employed, and the
appropriate percentage of gas (25 % maximum) is
confirmed.
Leak detection fluids are also suitable for use with P
most refrigerants but the use of detergents
containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine
may react with the refrigerant and corrode the
copper pipe-work.
If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be P
removed/extinguished.
If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires P
brazing, all of the refrigerant shall be recovered
from the system, or isolated (by means of shut off
valves) in a part of the system remote from the
leak.
DD.9 Removal and evacuation —
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make P
repairs – or for any other purpose – conventional
procedures shall be used.
However, for flammable refrigerants it is important P
that best practice is followed since flammability is a
consideration.
The following procedure shall be adhered to: P
remove refrigerant; P
purge the circuit with inert gas P
evacuate P
purge with inert gas P
open the circuit by cutting or brazing. P
The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the P
correct recovery cylinders.
For appliances containing flammable refrigerants P
other than A2L refrigerants, the system shall be
purged with oxygen-free nitrogen to render the
appliance safe for flammable refrigerants

Tel : +66 2 765 2888 Fax : +66 2 765 2889
www.intertek.com
IEC 60335-2-40
This process may need to be repeated several P

times. Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used
for purging refrigerant systems.
For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, P
other than A2L refrigerants, refrigerants purging
shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the
system with oxygen-free nitrogen and continuing to
fill until the working pressure is achieved, then
venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a
vacuum.
This process shall be repeated until no refrigerant P
is within the system.
When the final oxygen-free nitrogen charge is used, P
the system shall be vented down to atmospheric
pressure to enable work to take place.
Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not P
close to any potential ignition sources and that
ventilation is available.
DD.10 Charging procedures —
In addition to conventional charging procedures, P
the following requirements shall be followed.
Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants P
does not occur when using charging equipment.
Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to
minimise the amount of refrigerant contained in
them.
Cylinders shall be kept in an appropriate position P
according to the instructions.
Ensure that the refrigerating system is earthed prior P
to charging the system with refrigerant.
Label the system when charging is complete (if not P
already).
Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the P
refrigerating system.
Prior to recharging the system, it shall be pressure- P
tested with the appropriate purging gas.
The system shall be leak-tested on completion of P
charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up
leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the
site.
DD.11 Decommissioning —
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential P
that the technician is completely familiar with the
equipment and all its detail.

Tel : +66 2 765 2888 Fax : +66 2 765 2889

IEC 60335-2-40
It is recommended good practice that all P

refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior to the task
being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample
shall be taken in case analysis is required prior to
re-use of recovered refrigerant. It is essential that
electrical power is available before the task is
commenced.
a) Become familiar with the equipment and its P
operation.
b) Isolate system electrically. P
c) Before attempting the procedure, ensure that: P
mechanical handling equipment is available, if P
required, for handling refrigerant cylinders;
all personal protective equipment is available and P
being used correctly;
the recovery process is supervised at all times by a P
competent person;
recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the P
appropriate standards.
d) Pump down refrigerant system, if possible. P
e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so P
that refrigerant can be removed from various parts
of the system.
f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales P
before recovery takes place.
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in P
accordance with instructions.
h) Do not overfill cylinders (no more than 80 % P
volume liquid charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of P
the cylinder, even temporarily.
j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and P
the process completed, make sure that the
cylinders and the equipment are removed from site
promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment
are closed off.
k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into P
another refrigerating system unless it has been
cleaned and checked.
DD.12 Labelling —
Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been P
de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant.
The label shall be dated and signed. P

Tel : +66 2 765 2888 Fax : +66 2 765 2889
www.intertek.com
IEC 60335-2-40
For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, P

ensure that there are labels on the equipment
stating the equipment contains flammable
refrigerant.
DD.13 Recovery --
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for P
servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended
good practice that all refrigerants are removed
safely.
When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure P
that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders
are employed. Ensure that the correct number of
cylinders for holding the total system charge is
available. All cylinders to be used are designated
for the recovered refrigerant and labelled for that
refrigerant (i.e. special cylinders for the recovery of
refrigerant). Cylinders shall be complete with
pressure-relief valve and associated shut-off valves
in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders
are evacuated and, if possible, cooled before
recovery occurs.
The recovery equipment shall be in good working P
order with a set of instructions concerning the
equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for
the recovery of all appropriate refrigerants
including, when applicable, flammable refrigerants.
In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall
be available and in good working order. Hoses shall
be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings
and in good condition. Before using the recovery
machine, check that it is in satisfactory working
order, has been properly maintained and that any
associated electrical components are sealed to
prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant release.
Consult manufacturer if in doubt.
The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the P
refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder,
and the relevant waste transfer note arranged. Do
not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially
not in cylinders.
If compressors or compressor oils are to be P
removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to
an acceptable level to make certain that flammable
refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant. The
evacuation process shall be carried out prior to
returning the compressor to the suppliers. Only
electric heating to the compressor body shall be
employed to accelerate this process. When oil is
drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely.

The composition of the refrigerant used for the test N/A

shall be taken as the nominal composition as
specified in ISO 817. Where LFL is referenced in
this annex, the LFL shall be taken at the nominal
MM.2 Test methods —
MM.2.1 The appliance is modified by introducing a N/A
simulated leak through a capillary tube. The leak
rate shall be maintained at mr in g/s. The simulated
leak is applied for 1 min.
The free volume (Vfree) shall be determined by N/A
calculating the volume of the appliance bounded by
a horizontal plane at the lowest point of the
simulated leak, the appliance enclosure walls and
the plane of the supply and return openings.
The volume shall be reduced by the volume of N/A
components or enclosed compartments within the
bounded space. Components and enclosed
compartments within the bounded space with a
volume of less than 0,001 m3 can be ignored.
A leakage of refrigerant in the refrigerating system N/A
is simulated at the unfavourable critical points for
detection of the leak.
A critical point is a joint in the refrigerant system N/A
tubing, a bend of more than 90 degrees, or other
point judged to be a weak point in the refrigerant
containing system due to the thickness of the
metal, exposure to damage, sharpness of a bend or
the manufacturing process, an unfavourable point
is a point where the path between the leakage point
and the point of detection location is more distant or
more obstructed. The refrigerant is injected at the
most critical point and the most unfavourable
direction at ambient temperature (15 °C to 35 °C).
The capillary tube shall discharge refrigerant into a
chamber or similar device which will reduce the
refrigerant velocity into the appliance or space.
Care shall be taken that the installation of the N/A
capillary tube does not unduly influence the results
of the test and that the structure of the appliance
does not unduly influence the results of the test.
MM.2.2 During this test, following appliance operating N/A
modes shall be tested;
- Fan OFF, and N/A
- Fan ON. N/A
If the minimum airflow specified by the N/A
manufacturer is not less than the minimum airflow
specified in GG.2.2 or Clause GG.9, testing in the
fan ON mode is not required.

MM.2.3 The appliance shall be installed according to the N/A

instructions.
Appliances that can be installed in different N/A
positions shall be tested in all positions allowed by
the manufacturer. The supply and return openings
shall not be covered and the manufacturers
recommended air-filters shall be installed per
instructions.
M.2.5 The instrument used for monitoring the refrigerant N/A
gas concentration shall have a fast response to the
gas concentration, at least 90 % response within 10
s (time constant 4,3 s) and shall be located as
close to the intended sensor location as possible,
but care should be taken not to unduly influence the
results of the test. It shall be calibrated to have an
accuracy of ± 1 % of gas concentration between 20
% and 30 % gas concentration.
For small products where an additional sensor N/A
cannot be built-in, the evaluation of MM.2.6 shall
suffice.
The refrigerant gas concentrations sampling shall N/A
be made at least every 10 s.

NN.1 General —
Annex NN is applicable to appliances using A2L N/A
refrigerants
A flame arrest enclosure is a device or assembly N/A
enclosing components with electrical contacts that
are made and broken, or similar devices which may
become a source of ignition which will withstand an
internal ignition of a A2L refrigerant vapour which
may enter it without suffering damage and without
transmission of flame from the internal ignition to an
external A2L refrigerant vapour of the same
refrigerant.
Electrical components enclosed in a flame arrest N/A
enclosure in compliance with the test procedures
below shall not be considered as a source of
ignition.
If all openings in the enclosure comply with Annex N/A
JJ, the enclosure is deemed to comply.
The following test requirements are based on N/A
consideration of IEC 60079-15:2010, Clause 17, as
applicable to the products within the scope of IEC
60335-2-40, and specific to the use of flammable
A2L refrigerants.
