Introduction
The adoption of refrigerants with low Global Warming Potential, in response to concerns about the
effect of some fluorocarbons on climate, has raised the profile of fluids which were previously limited in
their use due to flammability. As the industry moves towards greater use of low GWP flammable
refrigerants, in particular from flammability class A3, it is important to ensure that installation methods
also change to support this technology transition.
The purpose of this document is to provide information to ensure acceptable risk levels applying
flammable refrigerants.
This document therefore provides technical information to the companies and individuals directly
involved in activities at the worksite; the owner of the system and the company and individuals that
install equipment.
