Supplementary Guidance for Owners of Refrigerating Equipment under the F Gas Regulation - 3/4/2007
This Guidance Note from UK Government is intended to help operators of stationary refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pump equipment identify whether they use refrigerants affected by the new Regulation; help identify how much refrigerant they have in a systen and for those that are affected, to provide an explanation of what actions they need to take to comply and the dates when the new rules come into force. The supplementary Guidance note is only aimed at stationary refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pump users. The Guidance includes a suggested Sample System Log as required for systems over 3kg in charge size.

The Refrigerant charge calculator spreadsheet has been prepared to help estimate the amount of refrigerant in refrigeration or air-conditioning equipment. Making a reasonable estimate of the refrigerant charge in a circuit is necessary in order to understand which of the Regulation's obligations will apply to the operator responsible for that piece of equipment. To use the Refrigerant Charge Calculator you will need to enable the macros. The macro security settings within Excel will need to be set at low or medium.
