Different types of refrigeration gases sold in Nairobi Kenya

A refrigerant (refrigeration freon gas) is a compound used in a heat cycle that reversibly undergoes a phase change from a gas to a liquid. Traditionally, fluorocarbons, especially chlorofluorocarbons, were used as refrigerants but they are being phased out because of their ozone depletion effects.

R134a Refrigeration (Refrigerant) Freon Gas in Nairobi Kenya

R134a is also known as Tetrafluoroethane (CF3CH2F) from the family of HFC refrigerant. With the discovery of the damaging effect of CFCs and HCFCs refrigerants to the ozone layer, the HFC family of refrigerant has been widely used as their replacement. R134a is a HFC, used in automotive air conditioning and as a replacement for R12 and R22 in medium and high temperature refrigeration applications, such as commercial and domestic refrigeration and chillers.  It has also been used to replace refrigerants R12 and R500 in coolers. It exists in gas form when expose to the environment as the boiling temperature is -26.1°C (-14.9°F)

R-134a is an HFC refrigerant, which requires polyolester (POE) lubricant to be used in the compressor.

No	Properties	R-134a
1	Boiling Point	-26.1°C (-14.9°F)
2	Auto-Ignition Temperature	770°C (1418°F)
3	Ozone Depletion Level	0
4	Solubility In Water	0.11% by weight at 25°C or 77°F
5	Critical Temperature	122°C (252°F)
6	Cylinder Color Code	Light Blue
7	Global Warming Potential (GWP)	1200

Applications of refrigeration gas R134a

• Firstly, applied in light air conditioning
• Secondly, used in vehicle air conditioning
• Thirdly, used in medium and high temperature cooling
• Air conditioning in residential buildings
• Industrial applications, such as centrifugal coolers.
• Manufacturing industry use it in plastic foam blowing
• Lastly, applied in pharmaceuticals industry as a propellant.

R22 Refrigeration (Refrigerant) Freon Gas in Nairobi Kenya

R22 is a single component HCFC refrigerant that has historically been used for instance in air conditioning, medium temperature and low temperature refrigeration. The gas will still be available until 2030. Most air conditioning units older than 10 years utilize an AC refrigerant called R22 that’s commonly identified as Freon*, and is noted by the EPA as HCFC-22. 
R22 is suitable for a wide range of refrigeration and air conditioning applications across a wide range of temperatures.

The End of R22:

R22 Freon or HCFC-22 Freon, is an environmental danger because it contributes to the depletion of the ozone layer. R22 refrigerant will be eliminated from use in cooling systems by the year 2020. At this point, R22 will no longer be manufactured and cannot be used as a refrigerant in new air conditioning systems. R22 is to be replaced by R-410A, a safer material which is the current, compliant standard refrigerant in air conditioning equipment.

R404A Refrigeration (Refrigerant) Freon Gas in Nairobi Kenya

R-404A is a pseudo-azeotropic mixed refrigerant with a composition of the three ingredients, in this case, R-125, R-134a, and R-143a. It is a substitute refrigerant for R-502 and R-22, for use in commercial refrigerator equipment for low and medium temperature ranges. Moreover, tt possesses outstanding properties as a refrigerant for showcases, refrigerated vehicles, ice makers, and other equipment.

Applications of R404A

• Cold storage cells
• Ice and vending machines

Product Features & Benefits

• Substitute for R502, with comparable physical and thermodynamic properties
• Near azeotropic refrigerant blend containing R125, R143a, and R134a 
• Always charge the refrigerant from the liquid phase to ensure accurate composition
• A‑Gas refrigerant cylinders have dual port valves, making liquid offtake easier
• Non-flammable with a safety classification of A1
• Additionally, compressors must be charged with polyester oils. Contact the compressor manufacturer for more information
• With a GWP above 2500, virgin R404A can no longer be used in new equipment or to service existing equipment where the charge size is greater than 40T CO2 Equivalent (approximately 10kgs of R404A). The use of Reclaimed R404A is allowable until 2030 to service existing equipment.

R407C Refrigeration (Refrigerant) Freon Gas in Nairobi Kenya

R-407C is a non-azeotropic mix refrigerant comprising of three ingredients R-32, R-125, and R-134a, a substitute refrigerant for R-22. Use in applications such as air conditioning equipment and chiller equipment for medium temperature ranges. Besides, it possesses outstanding properties as a refrigerant for air conditioners, chillers, vending machines, and other equipment.

Uses of R407C

• To begin with, use with packaged air conditioners
• Commercial-use refrigerators
• Lastly, use with vending machines etc.

R410A Refrigeration (Refrigerant) Freon Gas in Nairobi Kenya

R410A is an HFC blend for use in new R22 applications. It can operate at higher pressures than many other refrigerants, hence do not use it to retrofit R22 systems. Systems designed for R410A can take advantage of its ability to use smaller components, making it a key refrigerant for domestic and light air conditioning equipment. R410A’s low glide also makes it suitable for some centrifugal compressors, and it can operate in low-temperature applications

Product Features & Benefits

• To begin with , it is a substitute for R22 and R13B1
• Secondly, it is a near azeotropic refrigerant blend containing R32 and R125
• Thirdly, only charge the refrigerant from the liquid phase to ensure accurate composition
• A‑Gas refrigerant cylinders have dual port valves, making liquid offtake easier
• Non-flammable with a safety classification of A1
• Only charge compressors with polyolester oils, contact the compressor manufacturer for more information
• Distinct higher efficiency in comparison with R22
• Not a retrofit replacement due to much higher operating pressures
• Consider higher pressures of this refrigerant , especially with regards to system components

R507 Refrigeration (Refrigerant) Freon Gas in Nairobi Kenya

To begin with, Maxron® R 507 is a non-ozone depleting, isotropic blend of HFC refrigerants R-125 and R-143a. It has a zero ozone depletion potential (ODP). R-507 is blended to match the properties of R-502, hence it is a good refrigerant for some medium and most low-temperature refrigeration applications especially for use in new refrigeration equipment, such as food display and storage cases, Cold storage rooms, Transport Refrigeration, Process refrigeration, Boats, and Deep Sea Trawler for Refrigeration Purpose. Following this it is a safe and effective alternative to some chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) and hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerants, including R-502.
