Overview
RS-45 provides the closest drop-in R22 replacement for low & high temperature refrigeration capacity (-35°C and +7°C). RS-45 provides a high-performance refrigerant that meets the classification of ASHRAE R434A requirements.
RS-45 provides an easy to use, drop-in replacement technology for R22 with equivalent performance in:
Low Temperature Capacity, Compression Ratio, Coefficient of Performance (COP), Discharge Pressure, and Lubricant Compatibility.
RS-45 provides superior performance to R-22 with the following properties:
Lower Discharge Temperature, Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP), Significantly Lower Global Warming Potential (GWP).
