F-Gas Information
From 1/1/2015, a new F-Gas Regulation (EC 517/2014) comes into force replacing the old Regulation (EC 842/2006. This will affect
system labelling, information supplied within documentation and also the way in which thresholds for frequency of leak testing
refrigeration systems are calculated. Please be aware of the following:

The outdoor unit models covered in this Technical Manual contains fluorinated greenhouse gases.

The indoor unit models come from the factory pressurized with OFN (Oxygen Free Nitrogen) only.

The GWP (Global Warming Potential) values of refrigerants which are specified for use in this equipment along with the three
new thresholds for leak testing requirements based on TCO
₂
Eq (Tonnes CO
₂
Equivalent) are as follows:
Refrigerant Charge ‐ kg
5T 50T 500T
Refrigerant GWP CO₂Eq CO₂Eq CO₂Eq
R410A 2087.5 2.4 23.9 239

Changes to leak testing requirements are as follows:
OLD LEGISLATION NEW LEGISLATION LEAK CHECKING FREQUENCY
3‐30 kgs 5‐50 TCO₂Eq
Every 12 months but can be increased to 24 months if
fitted with a fixed leak detection system.
30‐300 kgs 50‐500 TCO₂Eq
Every 6 months but can be increased to 12 months if
fitted with a fixed leak detection system.
300+ kgs 500+ TCO₂Eq
Every 6 months ‐ however automatic leak detection
system is mandatory which requires servicing every 12
months
Please note: For systems with a charge below 3kg, the changes to the leak checking regime will not apply until 2017. Currently, there is
no requirement for regular leak testing of systems with a total charge below 3kg.
A refrigerant charge label is supplied with each unit manufactured from January 2015. The refrigerant charge for the system must be
entered on the label with indelible ink and must be adhered in the proximity of the product charging port.
①
= Unit refrigerant pre-charge amount
②
= Additional refrigerant charge added at site (if required)
① + ② =
Total system refrigerant charge
