REFRIGERANT

UNDER

PRESSURE is used in the operation of this equipment.

NOTE

Use great care to avoid contact with liquid refrigerant or inhaling

refrigerant gas being discharged from any container under

pressure. Sudden and irreversible tissue damage can result

from freezing.

Wear thermal protective gloves and a face

protector or safety glasses in any situation where skin or eye

contact is possible.

Prevent contact of refrigerant gas with flame or hot surfaces.

Heat causes the refrigerant to break down and form carbonyl

chloride (phosgene), a highly toxic and corrosive gas.
