R-407A is a non-azeotropic, zero ozone depleting, low global warming potential HFC refrigerant gas mixture used in new equipment operating at medium and low temperatures. It is also an indirect substitute (retrofit) for R-502 and its HCFC substitutes such as R-22, R-408A, DI-44, HP80.

R-407A was developed at the same time as R-507 and R-404A to replace R-502 in new medium and low temperature installations. At that time, the choice in Europe was to use acetotropic cooling gases; neither global warming potential (GWP) nor energy efficiency were taken into account. Actually, at low temperature, R-407A is closer in cooling capacity to R-22 than to R-502, R-507 or R-404A. To convert an installation from R-22 to R-407A it will be necessary to change the original mineral oil for POE oil, change the filter drier, the safety valves and other elements that were set to R-22 pressures. As with any change from HCFC to HFC, it is recommended that rubber O-rings be replaced with plastic O-rings.

Applications:

– Water chillers.

– Refrigerated warehouses.

– Refrigerated showcases.

– Ice cream machines.

– Ice rinks.

– Cold storage rooms.

– Refrigerated transport.

– Cold beverage dispenser.

– No harm to the ozone layer, ODP = 0.

– Only compatible with POE synthetic oils.

– Equipment can be refilled in case of leakage.

– Lower discharge temperatures than R-22.

– Slightly lower cooling capacity and similar energy efficiency to R-22.

– Cooling capacity and energy efficiency inferior to R-442A and R-407F.

– Pressures similar to R-404A.

– Global Warming Potential (GWP): 2107

– Boiling point at 1.013 bar (ºC): -40.8

– Temperature glide or glide (ºC): 4.2

– Saturated vapor density at 25ºC (kg/m3): 49.74

– UN NO.: 3338

– Safety classification: A1. Low toxicity and non-flammable.

– Always load in liquid phase.
