IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Repair to sealed components
• During repairs to sealed components, all electrical 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.
• Particular attention shall be paid to the following to 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 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 manufacturer’s specifications.
Repair to intrinsically safe components
• Do not apply any permanent inductive or 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 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 the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the
ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
Cabling
• Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp
edges or any other adverse environmental effects.
• The check shall also take into account the effects of aging or continual vibration from sources
such as compressors or fans.
Detection of flammable refrigerants
• Under no circumstances shall potential sources of 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 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 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 most refrigerants but the use of detergents
containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the
copper pipework.
• If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/extinguished.
• If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerants shall be recovered
from the system, or isolated (by means of shut off valves) in a part of the system remote from the leak.
Removal and evacuation
• When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs – or for any other purpose –
conventional procedures shall be used. However, for flammable refrigerants it is important that best
practice is followed since flammability is a consideration. The following procedure shall be adhered
to:
OMEGA ALTISE

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Remove refrigerant.
• Purge the circuit with inert gas (optional for a2l).
• Evacuate (optional for a2l).
• Purge with inert gas (optional for a2l).
• Open the circuit by cutting or brazing.
• The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders. For appliances
containing flammable refrigerants other than A2L refrigerants, the system shall be purged with
oxygen-free nitrogen to render the appliance safe for flammable refrigerants. This process may need
to be repeated several times. Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used for purging refrigerant
systems.
• For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, 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 is within the system. When the final
oxygen-free nitrogen charge is used, the system shall be vented down to atmospheric pressure to
enable work to take place. This operation is absolutely vital if brazing operations on the pipework are
to take place.
• Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not close to any potential ignition sources and that
ventilation is available.
Charging procedures
• In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be followed:
• Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging
equipment. Hoses or lines shall be as short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained
in them.
• Cylinders shall be kept in an appropriate position according to the instructions.
• Ensure that the refrigerating system is earthed prior to charging the system with refrigerant.
• Label the system when charging is complete (if not already).
• Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the refrigerating system.
• Prior to recharging the system, it shall be pressure-tested with the appropriate purging gas. The
system shall be leak-tested on completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test
shall be carried out prior to leaving the site.
Decommissioning
• Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the
equipment and all its detail. It is recommended good practice that all 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 operation.
(b) Isolate system electrically.
(c) Before attempting the procedure, ensure that:
• Mechanical handling equipment is available, if required, for handling refrigerant cylinders.
• All personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly.
• The recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person.
• Recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(d) Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.
(e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from various
parts of the system.
(f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place.
(g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with instructions.
(h) Do not overfill cylinders (no more than 80 % volume liquid charge).
(i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
(j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and 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 another refrigerating system unless it has been
cleaned and checked.
Labelling
• Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant.
The label shall be dated and signed. For appliances containing flammable refrigerants, ensure that
there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contain flammable refrigerant.
• When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is
recommended good practice that all refrigerants are removed safely.
Recovery
• When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure 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 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 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 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.
Warnings for Disposal
Refrigerant used for the air-conditioner are flammable. Therefore when the air-conditioner is scraped,
it shall be kept away from any fire source and be recovered by a special recovering company with
corresponding qualification other than be disposed by combustion, so as to prevent damage to the
environment or any other harm.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AUTOMATIC DEFROST
At low room temperatures, frost may build-up at the evaporator during operation. The unit will automatically
start defrosting and the POWER LED blinking. The defrost control sequence is as follows:
• When the unit operates in the cooling operation, drying operation, the ambient temperature sensor
senses the evaporator coil temperature is below -1°C, after the compressor will stop operating for 10
minutes or the coil temperature up to 7 °C, the unit restart to cool operating mode.
• When the unit operates in the drying operation, once the coil temperature sensor senses the
temperature of the evaporator is below 40°C and the differential temperature between coil
temperature and room temperature is below 19°C after the compressor operation for 20 minutes, the
unit start defrosting for 5 minutes and the power indicator blinking.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
In the event of a power loss, to protect the compressor there is a 3-minute delay until the compressor restarting.
DRAINAGE (Self- evaporating system)
The self-evaporating system uses the collected water to cool the condenser coils for better efficient
performance. There is no need to empty the drainage tank in cooling operation except in drying operation and
high humidity conditions. The condensate water evaporates at the condenser and evacuated through the
exhaust hose.
For continuous operation or unattended operating in drying, please connect the attached drain hose to the
unit. Condensate water can be automatically flow into a bucket or drain by gravity.
Switch off the unit before
operating.
Remove the plug of the water
outlet opening and keep it in safe
area.
Securely and properly connect
the drain hose and make sure it is
not kinked and clear of
obstruction.
Place the outlet of hose over a
drain or bucket and ensure that
water could freely flow out of the
unit.
Do not submerge the end of hose
into water; otherwise, it can
cause "Air Lock" in the hose.

SERVICING
Please follow these warnings when to undertake the following when servicing an appliance with R290.
Checks to the area
Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are necessary to ensure
that the risk of ignition is minimized. For repair to the refrigerating system, the following precautions shall be
complied with prior to conducting work on the system.
Work procedure
Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimize the risk of a flammable gas or vapor
being present while the work is being performed.
General work area
All maintenance staff and others working in the local area shall be instructed on the nature of work being
carried out. Work in confined spaces shall be avoided. The area around the work space shall be sectioned off.
Ensure that the conditions within the area have been made safe by control of flammable material.
Checking for presence of refrigerant
The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during work, to ensure the
technician is aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being
used is suitable for use with flammable refrigerants, i.e. no sparking, adequately sealed or intrinsically safe.
Presence of fire extinguisher
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any associated parts, appropriate fire
extinguishing equipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry powder or CO2 fire extinguisher adjacent to the
charging area.
No ignition sources
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system which involves exposing any pipe work that
contains or has contained flammable refrigerant shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may
lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking, should be kept
sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and disposal, during which flammable
refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding space. Prior to work taking place, the area around the
equipment is to be surveyed to make sure that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks. “No Smoking”
signs shall be displayed.
Ventilated area
Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before breaking into the system or
conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that the work is carried out.
The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally into the
atmosphere.
Checks to the refrigeration equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to the correct
specification. At all times the manufacturer’s maintenance and service guidelines shall be followed. If in doubt
consult the manufacturer’s technical department for assistance.
The following checks shall be applied to installations using flammable refrigerants:
• The charge size is in accordance with the room size within which the refrigerant containing parts are
installed.
• The ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed.
• If an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit shall be checked for the presence
of refrigerant.
• Marking to the equipment continues to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that are illegible shall
be corrected.
OMEGA ALTISE

SERVICING
• Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a position where they are unlikely to be exposed to any
substance which may corrode refrigerant containing components, unless the components are
constructed of materials which are inherently resistant to being corroded or are suitably protected
against being so corroded.
Checks to electrical devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and component inspection
procedures. If a fault exists that could compromise safety, then 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:
• Those capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking.
• That there no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or purging
the system.
• That there is continuity of earth bonding.
