The automotive aftermarket is evolving rapidly—shaped by stricter EU environmental regulations, ambitious sustainability targets, and a growing demand for eco-conscious vehicle service. In this shifting landscape, automotive workshops, distributors, and service networks need diagnostic tools that support both performance and compliance.
Détecteur de fuites® UV leak detection systems are leading the charge—helping professionals across Europe and beyond reduce emissions and stay ahead of regulation.
Leak Detection and Carbon Neutrality Go Hand-In-Hand
Nations across the globe are committing to carbon neutrality, with some aiming for net-negative emissions. As countries adopt more aggressive environmental policies, corporate responsibility becomes a non-negotiable across all sectors—automotive included.
Détecteur de fuites® delivers affordable leak detection from Tracer Products. Our UV fluorescent leak detection tools are tailored to the European aftermarket. Compatible with all major refrigerants—including R-134a and R-1234yf—our products support both legacy and modern vehicle fleets.
By identifying refrigerant leaks early, workshops not only preserve system performance—they help prevent harmful emissions and meet the goals outlined in the European Green Deal et Regulation (EU) 2024/573 (F-Gas Regulation). These initiatives call for dramatic reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by phasing down fluorinated gases and encouraging the use of sustainable alternatives.
Reducing Automotive Emissions Through Proactiv Leak Detection
Both technicians and vehicle manufacturers play a critical role in cutting the automotive industry’s carbon footprint. Here’s how leak detection can support that goal:
- Early Refrigerant Leak Checks & Repairs: Proactively inspect A/C systems for refrigerant leaks, especially those with high global warming potential. The perfect choice is the Leakfinder Complete A/C & Fluid Leak detection kit (LF021), which meets SAE standards (J2297) and is compatible with R-134a, R-1234yf, and other refrigerants as well.
- Invest in Modern Tools: Utilize advanced technologies, such as UV leak detection, to pinpoint leaks with precision. Leakfinder® ultraviolet fluorescent universal dyes provide the most precise leak detection for all automotive air condition systems containing R-134a, R-1234yf, or other widely used refrigerants and are safe for EV/Hybrid systems. The LF101CS Solo-Shot XL A/C Dye syringe is perfect for servicing one vehicle.
