What is r416a refrigerant used for?

A blend of R134a and R124. Used for medium temperature refrigeration or for automotive as a drop in refrigerant.

Which lubricant is compatible with refrigerant R22 is?

mineral oil
Refrigerant R-22 has been successfully used with mineral oil in residential air-conditioning and heat pump systems (AC/HP). R-407C and R-41 OA are two chlorine free HFC refrigerant candidates to replace R-22.

Which refrigerant is most miscible with oil?

In general it can be stated that the R-12 alternative blends based on R-142b are more miscible with mineral oil than those based on R-152 (R-22 common to both), and both are more miscible than those based on 134a.

What is r417c?

An R-12 Refrigerant Replacement Freon Hot Shot™ 2 (R-417C) refrigerant is a non-ozone depleting, hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) replacement for these refrigerants. Freon Hot Shot™ 2 can be used in most applications to retrofit systems currently using R-12 or R-12 blends, including: R-401A.

What is r414b refrigerant?

R-414B (HOTSHOT)* is a blend of R-22, R-124 and R-142b with hydrocarbon R-600a (isobutane) added to improve mineral oil miscibility. This blend can be used to retrofit R-12 automotive air conditioning systems as well as stationary refrigeration systems.

What kind of oil do you use with 404A?

R-404A is a HFC and Polyol Ester is the only approved oil. The Alkyl Benzene will not be miscible with the HFC. The HCFC refrigerants have a small amount of chlorine that is miscible with the AB oil. Tests have proven that oil return problems result when AB is used with R-404A.

Will R-22 refrigerant work with POE oil?

The refrigerant R-22 is compatible with POE oils.

What are the different types of refrigerant oils?

There are two main types of refrigerant oils:

  • Mineral Oils, and.
  • Synthetic Oils.

What is r414b?

What is R-404A refrigerant?

Today the HFC R-404A is one of the most commonly used refrigerants in the United States and in the world. You can find it most commercial refrigerators/freezers, in vending and ice machines, in refrigerated transport, and in specific industrial applications. 404A was originally implemented as a replacement option for the now banned CFC R-502.

What is the GWP of 404a refrigerant?

It’s GWP rating is three-thousand nine-hundred and twenty. This number makes it one of the absolute highest GWP refrigerant that is widely used in the world today. In some applications 404A is not the most efficient. There are other refrigerants that can save five to ten percent efficiency. (R-134a for example.)

What is the difference between air and R 404a?

R-404A is heavier then air and will displace oxygen in a room if a large enough quantity is leaked. This can be said for various types of refrigerants though and is not unique to 404A. When charging systems with R-404A the refrigerant must be in a liquid state.

Can you mix R-404A with air?

You should never mix 404A with air under. R-404A is heavier then air and will displace oxygen in a room if a large enough quantity is leaked. This can be said for various types of refrigerants though and is not unique to 404A. When charging systems with R-404A the refrigerant must be in a liquid state.
