Refrigerant Oil
Observe the following precautions when working with or
around refrigerant oil:
Refrigerant
Although fluorocarbon refrigerants are classified as safe,
observe caution when working with refrigerants or around
areas where they are being used in the servicing of your unit.
WARNING: Exposed coil fins can cause painful
lacerations. Service work on the evaporator or
condenser coils is best left to a certified Thermo King
technician.
CAUTION: Use extreme caution when drilling holes
in the unit. Drilling into electrical wiring or
refrigerant lines could cause a fire. Never drill into
structural components.
WARNING: Turn the unit HMI Controller Main Off
before inspecting any part of the unit.
WARNING: Always wear goggles or safety glasses to
protect eyes from refrigerant oil contact.
WARNING: Protect skin and clothing from
prolonged or repeated contact with refrigerant oil.
Rubber gloves are recommended.
WARNING: Wash thoroughly immediately after
handling refrigerant oil to prevent irritation.
DANGER: Fluorocarbon refrigerants may produce
toxic gases. In the presence of an open flame or
electrical short, these gases are severe respiratory
irritants CAPABLE OF CAUSING DEATH.
DANGER: Fluorocarbon refrigerants tend to
displace air and can cause oxygen depletion which
could result in DEATH BY SUFFOCATION. Provide
adequate ventilation in enclosed or confined areas.
