Many countries are introducing regulations aimed to reduce the use and diffusion of refrigerant gases harmful for the environment. The refrigerant gases responsible for the degradation of the atmospheric ozone layer have been banned since years in several Countries and today only those with ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) equal to zero are employed.

世界上许多国家开始实施新的环保标准，旨在减少对环境有害制冷剂的使用和排放。多年来，对臭氧层有损害的制冷剂在多个国家已经禁止使用。如今，只有ODP值(臭氧消耗潜值)为零的制冷剂才被许可使用。

European Union, always attentive to environmental protection, has recently begun the fight to reduce the emission of greenhouse effect substances too, which are responsible for global warming. Refrigerant gases represent a huge part of this category; for this reason the EU F-GAS REGULATION 517/2014 has been issued requiring a gradual reduction of fluorinated greenhouse gases commercialized in the market, with the aim of reducing their environmental impact.

欧盟总是对环保持积极态度，最近开始着手减少有温室气体效应物质的排放，以减缓全球变暖的趋势。制冷剂的排放占温室气体排放的很大一部分，因此，欧盟发布了F-GAS REGULATION 517/2014标准，要求逐步减少氟化温室气体物质的市场份额，以减少其对环境的影响。

In particular, the regulation requires that by 2030 the quantity (in CO2 equivalent) of refrigerant gas that can be commercialized in Europe must be 21% of the average quantity of refrigerants on the Union market in the period from 2009 to 2012.

标准特别要求，到2030年，制冷剂的用量（二氧化碳当量）要减少到2009到2012年期间欧盟市场平均值的21%。

 It is important to note that the refrigerant quantities just mentioned are not expressed by weight: in fact, the EU assigns the annual quota of refrigerant that each producer or importer can market in Europe not by mass but rather as a mass of CO₂ equivalent. This value is obtained by calculating the product between the mass of the gas and its GWP (Global Warming Potential) value, which is a specific chemical characteristic of each refrigerant. In the light of this, in order to achieve these important targets set by the EU without reducing the total quantity (in mass) of refrigerants necessary for the needs of the refrigeration industries, it is essential to use new gases with lower GWP values, i.e. more eco-sustainable.

特别注意，上述标准要求的制冷剂量不是重量，而是二氧化碳当量值。实际上，欧盟为每个使用制冷剂的生产商和进口贸易商限定了这一当量的年度市场配额。二氧化碳当量值由制冷剂重量和它的GWP值（全球变暖潜值）计算得来，GWP值是每种制冷剂的特定化学特性。

因此，为了满足欧盟的这些标准，同时满足制冷行业对制冷剂的总量需求，必须选择使用低GWP值的新型制冷剂。也就是，更生态、可持续、环保型制冷剂

FRIULAIR has immediately decided to offer solutions to customers with the supply of products environmental friendly and the regulations to protect it. And it is precisely with the FCT Series that Friulair intend to sensitise the market by offering refrigeration dryers designed and optimized for operation with the new R513A refrigerant gas with lower GWP (631 tons of CO2 equivalent, i.e. reduced by 56% compared to R134A and 64% compared to R407C).

FRIULAIR迅速反应，决定提供给客户更环保的产品，满足欧盟环保标准要求。FCT系列压缩空气冷冻式干燥机，经过特别设计和优化，采用低GWP值R513A新型制冷剂。Friulair敏锐洞察市场需求，满足环保法规。

（R513A制冷剂二氧化碳当量GWP为631，相比R134A降低了56%，相比R407C降低了64%）
