Green refrigerant

22 July 2014

In what is said to be a first for the UK, A-Gas has launched a new high specification Carbon Dioxide (R744) refrigerant.

Providing a green alternative to HFC gases like R22, eCO2 is produced sustainably from waste sugar beet and offers excellent thermodynamic properties.

Like traditional refrigerant grade CO2, eCO2 has a low environmental impact with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 1. However, with its ultra-low moisture content, eCO2 is certified to exceed refrigeration grade specification – giving it the edge over lower grade Carbon Dioxide. Low moisture content and high purity enable the refrigerant to work more reliably, which in turn extends the life of equipment.
