R-410A Refrigerant

R-410A Refrigerant

R-410A is a blend of R-32 and R-125 that is 60% higher pressure than R-22 for air conditioning applications and should only be used in new equipment specifically designed to handle the pressure. Systems that are designed for R-410A will have smaller components to perform the same cooling job as R-22. R-410A will require POE lubricants. Retrofitting R-22 equipment is not recommended under any circumstances.

R-410A has replaced R-22 as the preferred refrigerant for use in residential and light commercial air-conditioning and heat pump systems. It has a higher cooling capacity than R-22 and is significantly higher in pressure. R-410A was not designed to retrofit existing R22 systems and should be used only in systems specifically designed for R-410A. It is non toxic and non flammable meeting the highest A1 Classification.

A refrigerant is a substance or mixture, usually a fluid, used in a heat pump and refrigeration cycle. In most cycles it undergoes phase transitions from a liquid to a gas and back again. Many working fluids have been used for such purposes.

The color guideline is not a substitute for reading cylinder labels and markings.

Refrigerant is a tasteless, mostly odorless gas. When it is deeply inhaled, it can cut off vital oxygen to your cells and lungs. Limited exposure — for example, a spill on your skin or breathing near an open container — is only mildly harmful. However, you should try to avoid all contact with these types of chemicals.

To remove chlorine from the refrigerant, manufacturers created another set of refrigerants called HFCs (or Hydro Fluro Carbons). Although they also have the potential for global warming, but still they are better than HCFCs as they do not deplete the ozone layer. The most common HFC used in air conditioners is R-410A.

R-134a Refrigerant. Widely used in many air conditioning and refrigeration systems globally. It is a hydro-fluorocarbon (HFC) that does not contribute to ozone depletion; also the first non-ozone-depleting fluorocarbon refrigerant to be commercialized.
