AN UPDATE ON FLUOROCARBONS

ALL ELECTRIC DELIVERY VANS USE HFC-134a REFRIGERATION UNITS FOR URBAN DELIVERIES

The new car-derived refrigerated vans, equipped with the all-electric refrigeration system using non-flammable HFC-134a, support plans to comply with the tightening emissions legislation. The all-electric refrigeration system was selected as the ideal choice to create a zero-emissions electric vehicle with enough range to carry out most urban delivery operations. The roof-mounted, 12-volt refrigeration unit has…

NON-FLAMMABLE HFC/HFO REFRIGERANTS APPROVED FOR USE IN BUS AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEMS

A European manufacturer has announced approval for the use of non-flammable R-513A and R-450A as lower GWP alternatives to R-134a in its bus air conditioning systems. With the alternative refrigerants, the system delivers a virtually identical performance and have the same safety classification as R-134a (Class A1). Refrigerant R-513A is an azeotrope and has a…

TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED AIR CARGO TRANSPORT OF OVER 1.8 MILLION DOSES OF VACCINES IN A SINGLE FLIGHT

The transport of over 25 tonnes of vaccines from Europe to Brazil on a single flight required 36 temperature controlled containers using vapour compression cycle. Typically, active air freight containers use non-flammable HFC-134a in a battery-powered vapor compression cycle, with fully redundant electric heating and compressor cooling systems and an insulated container…

HFC-410A CHILLERS TO BE USED FOR COOLING NEW METRO LINE STATION

Specially customized high-performance chillers using non-flammable HFC-410A are to be used for London’s Elizabeth Line underground project to meet the stringent fire safety materials standards required for use underground. The chillers are equipped with zero halogen, low-smoke insulation and cables, and finished with specialist paint, all formulated to emit…

HFC-134a USED FOR HIGH EFFICIENCY ROOF TOP TRAIN AIR-CONDITIONER

The roof top train air conditioner, designed for heavy duty applications including passenger cabins, electrical cabinets on rail vehicles uses non-flammable HFC-134a and has a maximum operating temperature of 55°C. The very efficient air conditioner combines a very low power consumption with a high cooling output, which is much…
