R417A
Description:
R417A is a non-ozone depleting, HFC-based refrigerant designed as a direct replacement for R22 in existing air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Ideal for commercial and residential applications, R417A delivers efficient cooling performance without the need for expensive system retrofits or oil changes in most cases.
Key Features:
- Weight: 13.6kg / 30lbs cylinder
- R22 Replacement: Suitable for retrofitting existing R22 systems
- Compatibility: Works with traditional mineral oil or alkylbenzene without requiring a full conversion to POE oil
- Non-Ozone Depleting: HFC blend with zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential)
- Performance: Provides comparable capacity and energy efficiency to R22
- Applications: Split systems, chillers, rooftop units, heat pumps, and medium- to low-temperature refrigeration systems
Benefits:
- Quick and cost-effective R22 alternative
- No need for system flush or component changes in most applications
- Lower discharge temperatures help extend compressor life
- Safe and reliable with an A1 ASHRAE classification (non-toxic, non-flammable)
