Since the decree of December 22, 2016, it has been compulsory to use a Bordereau de Suivi des Déchets Dangereux (BSDD) depending on the type of products collected. The CERFA 15497 form is used by refrigeration specialists to simplify administrative procedures. The latter must hold a regulatory certification: the “attestation de capacité”. CERFA 15497 is used as an intervention form for commissioning refrigeration equipment, leak checks and all types of refrigerant handling. It is also used to recover used fluorinated gases and refrigerants for processing.

Found in air-conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump equipment, these gases destroy the ozone layer. It is therefore essential to keep track of the fluorinated gases and refrigerants present in this equipment, using a document required of refrigeration professionals by French regulations.

To prevent leaks of refrigerants (CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs) that contribute to the destruction of the ozone layer, the environment and the greenhouse effect, regulations require all installations with a capacity of over 2 kg of these gases to undergo a periodic leak test.

WCS Field Service is a mobile application designed for your field teams. The application installs easily on any mobile device, with no complex operations and no code: your BSDD form is directly available on your mobile device, along with any other forms related to your business needs.
