F-gas regulation, entered into force EU wide
Since 01.01.2017 the transition period for refrigerant circuits with a charge < 3kg is expired, for this reason all refrigerant circuits with an CO2 – equivalent > 5t a leak check has to be carried out.
Change of the leak testing EG-VO 517/2014 since 01.01.2017 (valid for the EU)
Additionally the mandatory identification for new chamber has changed.
In future, the GWP and the CO2 equivalent has to be indicated on the chamber type plate together with the type and charge of the refrigerant.
