Handling of SF6 gas

Due to the great harm sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) does to the climate, strict regulations were put in to place regarding SF6-gas handling. We have gathered documents from various legal sectors regarding SF6-gas, either serving as legal bases or written by competent offices.

SF6 gas recycling

There is a wide variety of devices filled with SF6 gas as well as SF6 gas in different qualities. Depending on the use and their requirements, we need different forms of preparation for transport, analytics, dismantling and packaging in SF6 gas tanks. To properly evaluate the SF6 gas or the device filled with SF6 gas and therefore determine the correct paths and labelling for the ADR transport and recycling, we have put together a few documents for you.

Transport of SF6 gas and devices filled with SF6 gas

There are different requirements by ADR classi­fi­cations depending on the quality of the used SF6 gas regarding the SF6 gas bottles, their labelling and transport.
