HFCs, or HydroFluroCarbons, are a commonly used refrigerant classification used across the globe. Some of the most common HFC refrigerants that you may have heard of are R-134a, R-404A, R-410A, R-125, and R-32. These refrigerants are used in a variety of applications from automotive, to home air conditioners, all the way to industrial
R-290 and R-600A are the new age environment-friendly and energy efficient refrigerants. Daikin, One of the Leading AC manufacturer, is using R32 refrigerant which has GWP (Global warming
If an HFC-134a A/C system still has pressure after the first refrigerant recovery process is complete (including the five-minute pause), additional recovery is necessary until the system vacuum level remains stable for: 2 minutes. If lubricant is removed by recovery equipment during system refrigerant removal, what must be done with the lubricant?
of HFC-134a to attain persistent thermodynamic properties and lower than that of HFC-134a. It was found that the saturated pressure values of R1234yf range from R134a by approximately 1.3% to 2.3% and for R152a it varies from HFC-134a by approximately 8.5% R134a is the most widely used refrigerant in domestic refrigerators. It must be phased out soon according to Kyoto protocol due to its high global warming potential of 1250. The achieved results show that 89g of R600a produces the same output as produced by R134a.Based on the results, R600a performance compressor coefficient, charge Solstice® N15 (R-515B), is A1 nonflammable and low-global-warming potential (LGWP) refrigerant replacement for R-134a for use in chillers and heat pumps. As a non-flammable R-134a replacement, Solstice N15 (R-515B) can be used immediately by chiller and heat pump manufacturers where safety standards and buildings codes limit the use of A2L and S9GnIf.
