Safety precaution definitions used in this manual
DANGER
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation or practice which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation or practice which, if not avoided, will result in damage to
equipment and/or minor injury.
Note: Indicates an operating procedure, practice, or portion thereof, which is essential to
highlight.
Requirements for competent persons
• Personnel working on the unit must be competent in accordance with national safety rules and
regulations relating to flammable refrigerants or according to EN 13313.
• Maintenance work must be performed according to EN 378 or ISO 5149 supported by evidence
of appropriate training.
• Assign only competent personnel instructed in safety and all machine functions to operate or
service the compressor and unit according to EN 13313.
• Operators and maintenance personnel must carefully read, understand, and fully comply with
all alarms and instructions.
13SAB 193-233-283 OHU 09135, OHU 10737, and OHU 07633 HP (including ATEX) Screw Compressor Units
Areas of application of the screw compressor
You must adhere to the following application of the screw compressor and application of
combustion engine guidelines.
Application of the screw compressor
To prevent unintentional application of the compressor, which could injure personnel or damage
equipment, you must observe the following guidelines:
• Only use the compressor as a refrigeration compressor and within the operating limits specified
in the manuals or in a written agreement with Johnson Controls Denmark.
• Only use the compressor with the refrigerant or refrigerants and number of revolutions per
minute, as shown on the compressor name plate. Only use other refrigerants in accordance
with Johnson Controls Denmark's instructions. Only use all other types of gas with written
permission from Johnson Controls Denmark.
• Johnson Controls Denmark further accept no liability of any kind for damage to the compressor
unit and plant parts caused by torsional oscillation, or the like, which is attributable to built-in
VSD solutions initiated by the customer after delivery.
•ATEX: The compressor is approved for application in potentially explosive atmospheres
provided it is fitted with explosion-proof equipment. If it is ATEX approved, there will be an EX
name plate fixed on the unit.
Important: You must use special non-sparking tools for all maintenance work on the
compressor.
Figure 2: EX name plate example
Important: You must not use the compressor to complete the following actions:
• To evacuate the refrigeration plant of air and moisture.
• To put the refrigeration plant under air pressure in view of pressure testing.
• As an air compressor.
Application of combustion engines
According to EN 378/ISO 5149, no other machinery should be installed in a refrigeration machine
room. Some refrigerant types may, to a certain extent, be absorbed by the fuel in a combustion
engine, and when the contaminated fuel reaches the fuel pumps, the refrigerant will flash out
(separate) and react on the increased temperature and pressure by creating acids, which will
destroy the pumps. However, check with the local authorities as exemptions to this rule may be
granted.
