Our HFO solutions to succeed in your transition to new F-gas standards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n


Are you ready for new F-gas standards?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will your equipment (current or future) be impacted?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setting up future standards European F-gas will have\/is already having a major impact on all refrigeration devices (new project, device replacement, fleet updating, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At EURODIFROID, we already have water coolers, oil coolers and industrial air conditioners compliant with these EU standards, and our team is ready to support you in this transition. We explain everything to you right here.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Reminder of the context<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has a direct impact on global warming, causing major disruption to the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among these gases, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are singled out for their particularly high global warming potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Used primarily as refrigerants in air conditioning and refrigeration systems (heat pumps, cooling rooms and other refrigeration systems), HFCs contribute significantly to global greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The Paris Agreement, signed in 2015, aims to keep global warming well below 2\u00b0C, and ideally 1.5\u00b0C, compared to pre-industrial levels. To achieve these objectives, specific measures concerning HFCs have been put in place, in particular via the European regulation on fluorinated gases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new standards require a gradual reduction in the use of HFCs<\/strong>, with increasingly strict emission quotas (expressed in CO2 equivalent, or carbon dioxide).
This transition is planned in “steps”, depending on the type of device, its refrigerating power or the type of gas used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, leak control measures are now mandatory to detect and limit fluid leaks, thus ensuring responsible handling of equipment containing HFCs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Impact on complete sectors of industry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

Manufacturers in the sector are already offering solutions around new gases, and are there to advise you and support you in the transition of your refrigeration installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the entire thermodynamic value chain is committed around these issues (designers, design offices, manufacturers, assemblers, installers, refrigeration engineers, etc.), with the impact of each component of the devices: compressor, evaporator, exchanger, condenser, pumps, ventilation, thermal regulation\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many issues must be taken into account<\/strong> to offer solid alternatives. Starting with the choice of the type of refrigerant gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although some gases seem very promising due to their low global warming potential (GWP), they still have disadvantages to manage: they can be more flammable, more toxic, or even require management of greater pressure.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

The design and assembly of low GWP devices therefore requires a very precise approach and specific skills.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Are you affected by this regulation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Regulatory and normative deadlines are getting closer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regarding new devices productions, the F-Gas transition schedule depends on many factors (type of device, type of design, cooling capacity, etc.), with a few exceptions, and it is now imperative to take these imminent obligations into account.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
