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. However, 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.

Flammable refrigerants are substances used in cooling systems that can ignite under certain conditions. They are crucial components in applications such as air conditioning, refrigeration, and heat pump systems.

The choice of refrigerant not only impacts the performance of these systems but also affects the environment. As climate change drives global temperatures upward, the demand for sustainable and eco-friendly refrigerants becomes more pressing than ever.

Refrigerants serve as the lifeblood of any cooling system, absorbing heat from indoor spaces and releasing it outdoors. Without efficient refrigerants, cooling equipment like chillers would become ineffective.
