Refrigerant Leak Detection

Non-refillable gas canisters are utilised to test refrigerant leak detection equipment, ensuring compliance with European Union F Gas Regulations. Detecting leaks in refrigerated units is crucial for maintaining HVAC performance and minimising potential fire and explosion risks.

Air Products’ Experis® range of calibration gases contains mixtures that have been optimised for leak detection in the refrigerant and air conditioning industries. Our non-refillable canisters guarantee that testing equipment remains accurately calibrated to monitor any uncontrolled release of gas safely.

Regulations and Safety Standards

Regulations and Safety Standards

Users of refrigerants must adhere to two key regulations:

F-Gas Regulation 517/214: Manufacturers and users of equipment containing refrigerants must conduct frequent leak detection checks to minimise emissions of fluorinated gases into the environment.

EN 378:2008: The Safety and Environmental Standard for refrigeration systems and heat pumps emphasises safety, ensuring that in the event of a leak, it is detected promptly with appropriate alarms.

Applications

The testing of sensors and monitoring of equipment using refrigerant and air conditioning gases are diverse and include:
