R448A is a low GWP non-flammable HFO blend refrigerant (ASHRAE A1), suitable for medium and high-pressure applications. It is an immediate replacement for R22 & R404A refrigerants.
Key features & benefits:
- Low and medium temperature commercial application including; supermarkets, food processing, food preservation and ice machines
- Lower GWP alternative to R404A & R407F
- Polyol ester oil is recommended with R448A to ensure adequate oil return
- Suitable for use in new installations as well as retrofitting of existing
equipment
- Meets/ improves capacity over R22 & R404A
- Best energy performance of any A1 (R22/R404A) retrofit refrigerant
- Lowest GWP of any synthetic A1 (R22/ R404A) retrofit refrigerant for low-temperature application
- Similar glide to R407F (~ 6 K)
- Requires synthetic lubricant (POE)
- Approved for use with Dorin & Copeland compressors
- Suitable for use with Danfoss, Emerson / Dixell Controllers
