Chiller Refrigerant Showdown: R410A VS R32
Chiller Refrigerant Showdown: R410A VS R32
What is refrigerant?
Refrigerant, also known as coolant or refrigerant, is the medium used in various thermal machines to facilitate energy conversion. It’s often synonymous with fluorocarbons. لكن, due to their detrimental effects on the ozone layer, notably with compounds like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), there’s been a shift towards more environmentally friendly options. Enter R32 and R410A, the new kids on the block in refrigerants. These two types have largely replaced ozone-depleting substances in chillers and other cooling systems.
What is a flammable refrigerant?
Flammable refrigerants are substances used in cooling systems that can ignite under certain conditions.
