Get your F-gases 2 person certificate at PBNA

Every technician who works on refrigeration and air conditioning equipment where fluorinated greenhouse gases or controlled substances can be released must hold the personal certificate. This f-gases category 2 personal certificate allows you to work with f-gases, in accordance with the BRL 200, on refrigeration, air-conditioning systems and heat pumps, with a capacity less than 3 kg of f-gases or 6 kg in the case of hermetic equipment (labeled as such). 

The F-gases 2 exam consists of a practical and a theoretical part. You can take the theory exam at PBNA at a location and time of your choosing.

With a positive final result on all parts, you will receive the PBNA certificate.
