R438A
Ecochill R-438A is a blended hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant designed for selected refrigeration and air conditioning applications, particularly the servicing of compatible existing R-22 systems. It is used in certain legacy installations as an alternative to R-22 where equipment compatibility and manufacturer recommendations permit. R-438A has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP), but it has a high global warming potential (GWP). Its suitability depends on system design, lubricant compatibility, operating conditions, and the requirements of the equipment manufacturer. Ecochill R-438A is intended for specialist refrigeration servicing and maintenance, subject to applicable environmental regulations and supply restrictions.
