Transcription of REFRIGERANT 410A - RSES
{{id}} {{{paragraph}}}
INTRODUCTIONR ecently a new REFRIGERANT , R- 410a , has been formu-lated and currently is being used in the HVAC/Rindustry. It was developed primarily because the pro-duction of R-22 is scheduled to stop soon. Thephaseout schedule for R-22, as mandated by theEnvironmental Protection Agency (EPA), will be dis-cussed in more detail at the end of this R- 410a is specifically intended for use innew air conditioning applications that traditionallywould have used R-22, other applications are alsopossible, including low- and medium-temperaturerefrigeration first glance, the most notable difference betweenR- 410a and R-22 is the higher operating pressures(approximately 50% higher on both the discharge sideandthe suction side).
R-410A is an azeotropic mixture of HFC-32 and HFC-125. It has been developed as a long-term replacement for R-22 in a variety of new air condi-tioning and cooling equipment.R-22 is an HCFC, or hydrochlorofluorocarbon, which means that it con-tains chlorine, an element that is damaging to the ozone layer. Because R-410A contains no chlorine
