Refrigerant
These units are supplied with one of these refrigerants:
■ R-410A: belongs to the A1/A1 group, i.e. with high safety both
in the mix and also in the case of a leak.
■ R-454B: belongs to the A2L group, that is, non-toxic and low
fl ammability.
Caution: with A2L refrigerant, always use an A2L refrigerant
detector when near the unit.
Important: the type of refrigerant included in the unit can be
consulted on the name plate, see section 4.3. An identifi cation
sticker is also included inside the electrical cabinet.
Note: These units are prepared for the replacement of R-410A
refrigerant by R454B on site. The necessary elements for this
change are supplied in a kit. All the instructions for carrying out
this retrofi t are explained in a separate document (N10692).
Periodic check of tightness:
Only qualifi ed personnel must perform a periodic leak testing, in
accordance with the regulation (EC) No. 517/2014.
■ The frequency of checks is no longer related to the refrigerant
charge but to its global warming potential:
Charge kg x GWP = t CO2e
Carbon dioxide equivalency (t CO2e) is a quantity that
describes, for a given mixture and amount of greenhouse gas,
the amount in tonnes of CO
2
that would have the same global
warming potential (GWP).
■ Operators shall ensure that the unit is checked for leaks ad
minima according to the following frequency:

■ The fi lter function is the preserve the cooling circuit clean and
without humidity, neutralizing the acids that can be found in
the cooling circuit.
■ Measure the diff erence in the temperature of the pipes at the
drier inlet and outlet.
■ If necessary, replace.
