Forane® 427A

Features

Advantages

Benefits

Application Range

R-22 retrofit for high to low temp refrigeration and DX A/C systems

Product versatility reduces the need for multiple gases

Reduced refrigerant inventory                 

More space on the van

Properties & Performance

Similar efficiency to R-22

Better efficiency than most other R-22 retrofits

Lower energy consumption than most other R-22 retrofits

Similar capacity to R-22

Small performance differences tolerable in most systems

Better high ambient performance than many other R-22 retrofits

Lower discharge temperatures

May improve compressor reliabilty  Reduced need for liquid injection

May improve low temp. system performance

Closely matched operating characteristics

            No equipment changes                

No head pressure problems Minimal system adjustments

Less costly and easier to use than many R-22 alternatives

Oil Return

Tolerates high levels of residual original oil (up to 15 %)

POE recommended
Works with MO or AB in many systems equiped with an Oil Separator             

One POE oil change ensures optimal  performance - Repeat flushes are not required

Environment

GWP of 1830*  (*from 4th IPCC assessment)

Lower GWP than most R-22 retrofit refrigerants

No ODP, Lower GWP, and better efficiency = Less Environmental Impact
