The sealing test must be carried out in compliance with EC regulation no. 517/2014 relating to certain greenhouse gases.
R410A, R134a and R407C are refrigerant gases with the following environmental impact:
1/ No impact on the ozone layer.
They have an ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) index of 0
2/Impact on the greenhouse effect: Global Warming Potential (GWP) of each gas.
- R410A -------- GWP = 2088
- R407C -------- GWP = 1800
- R134a -------- GWP = 1430
- Users must ensure that periodic leak testing is carried out by qualified personnel based on the number of tonnes of CO
2
equivalent:
≥ 5 tCO2eq ≥ 50 tCO2eq ≥ 500 tCO2eq
Test interval
Without leak detection system Every 12 months Every 6 months Every 3 months
With leak detection system Every 24 months Every 12 months Every 6 months

R410A (GWP = 2088) ≥ 2.39 kg ≥ 23.9 kg ≥ 239 kg
R407C (GWP = 1800) ≥ 2.77 kg ≥ 27.7 kg ≥ 277 kg
R134a (GWP = 1430) ≥ 3.49 kg ≥ 34.9 kg ≥ 349 kg
* To find out the refrigerant charge and the number of tonnes of CO
2
equivalent, refer to the technical characteristics in the
unit's instruction manual.
- Users of any system subject to leak testing are required to keep a log of the quantities and types of fluids used, (added or
recovered), and to include the dates and results of leak tests, as well as the name of the technician and the technician's
company.
- A leak test must be carried out one month after any leak repairs.
- System users are responsible for collecting used refrigerant and having it recycled, regenerated or destroyed.
