Charging systems that do not require a permit
  WARNING
When working on the refrigerant circuit and handling refrigerant, observe the generally valid safety precautions and pressure vessel regulations.
Charging systems not requiring a permit are ones used for transferring compressed gases to mobile compressed-gas vessels for internal use only.
Note:
Some air conditioner service units are charging systems not requiring a permit. When working with such equipment, the refrigerant is not transferred to mobile compressed-gas vessels, but rather into a permanently installed charging cylinder with visible level gauge and float switch.
Recommendation:
It is advisable to use a portable cylinder with visible level gauge and high-pressure safety valve for surplus refrigerant for internal use.
TRG 402 (technical regulations for compressed gases) must be observed when filling other compressed-gas vessels with compressed gases.
