|---|---|
| Cylinder Size | 11.5kg / 12kg |
| Gas | R134a |
Product Description
R134a is a single-component non-ozone depleting HFC refrigerant. It has similar properties and characteristics to R12 and is the refrigerant of choice for automotive air conditioning applications. It is typically a medium temperature refrigerant used in some domestic and commercial refrigeration applications, as well as transport refrigeration and large industrial chiller applications. R134a is also used as a component in other HFC blends.
R134a is not compatible with mineral oil, and equipment manufacturers recommend Polyol Ester (POE) oil except for autmotive air conditioning where Poly Alkylene glycol (PAG) oil is preferred. See our Lubricants section for more information. R134a can be used to retrofit existing R12 or R401A and R409A systems, however it will be necessary to carry out a number of oil flushes when changing to POE oil.
APPLICATIONS: Domestic, industrial and commercial refrigeration / Air conditioning / Fluid cooling / Heat pumps
ASHRAE CLASS: A1
OIL REQUIRED: POE (PAG for automotive)
