What is R422d refrigerant?

What is R422d refrigerant?

R422D (Freon™/Isceon MO29) is a HFC blend, originally designed to replace R22 in direct expansion water chillers. It is now used as a retrofit refrigerant for R22 in low and medium temperature refrigeration and air conditioning systems.

Is R422d compatible with R22?

R422d refrigerant operates at near capacity of R22. R422d refrigerant operates at lower discharge pressure & temperatures thereby reducing compressor workload. R422d refrigerant can be mixed with R22 without any system performance problems (if a service tech, inadvertently mixes the two refrigerants).

Is R422d a direct drop in for R22?

R422D is an easy-to-use, non-ozone-depleting HFC refrigerant originally designed to replace R22 in existing direct expansion water chiller systems. It can also be used in residential and commercial air conditioning and medium- to low-temperature refrigeration systems.

What is normal operating pressure for R22?

R22 gauge pressure is 10.9 bar or 158.2 psi. High side pressure typically varies by equipment and metering controls.

What oil does R422D use?

In most instances, the lubricant in use with R-22 is a mineral oil or alkyl benzene. Polyol ester lubricants are recommended for use with Genetron® 407C by the equipment manufacturers.

How do you tell if a r22 system is overcharged?

The most common indicators of an overcharged system are:

  1. Increased pressure throughout the system, characterized by high head pressure and high suction pressure with low suction superheat;
  2. Increased flooding of refrigerant to the compressor during off-cycle, which may cause flooded starts;

What can I replace R134a with?

There are three refrigerants that can be used to replace R-134a: R-1234yf, R-152a and R-744.

Which is a better refrigerant R22 or r422d?

Tests have shown that R422d refrigerant has a higher Coefficient of Performance (COP) than R22 in a range of applications including commercial refrigeration systems and heat pumps, both in the heating and cooling mode.

Which is better for TXV, R22 or r422d?

Don`t worry about oil changes and rest assured R422d refrigerant is good for cap tubes and TXV. It operates at lower discharge pressure and temperature than R22, which is great for the compressor. R422d refrigerant is the approved R22 replacement drop- in refrigerant by Carrier Commercial.

What kind of refrigerant is ISCEON mo29?

R422D (Freon ™ /Isceon ® MO29) is a HFC blend, originally designed to replace R22 in direct expansion water chillers. It is now used as a retrofit refrigerant for R22 in low and medium temperature refrigeration and air conditioning systems.

Can a retrofit blend match R22 in refrigeration?

A retrofit blend that is designed to match R22 in refrigeration applications. There is a reduction in capacity which would result in longer run times. There may also be excessive pressure drop in long piping runs which may limit capacity further.
