R449A: the low GWP replacement for R-404A / R-507 in commercial and industrial refrigeration

R449A is a refrigerant based on Hydrofluoro-olefins (HFO), characterized by an extremely low GWP - Global Warming Potential - value (reduction > 65% compared to R-404A). The product is intended to replace R404A and R507 in direct expansion commercial and industrial refrigeration systems, operating at medium and low temperatures.

R449A guarantees an improvement in energy efficiency in both medium and low temperatures; it is a mixture suitable for new plants, and also allows a quick, simple and economic retrofit of plants operating with R-404A and R-507.

R449A is a non-flammable gas and has been approved and adopted by the main manufacturers of systems and components; it is miscible with POE lubricants.

Applications:

R449A is used in direct expansion refrigeration systems, operating at low and medium temperatures: centralized refrigeration systems and cold rooms in supermarkets, refrigerated warehouses, refrigerated counters and refrigerated display cases (plug-ins).

It is suitable for new plants and retrofits of existing R-404A/R507 plants.

Performance:

R449A guarantees higher performance and energy efficiency than those of R-404A and R-507.

R449A has a significantly lower GWP (Global Warming Potential) than that of R-404A and R-507 (less than 65%).

It does not require the replacement of components, lubricants and seals.

R449A is not flammable (ASHRAE Class – A1).
