R32 – Difluoromethane, the new refrigerant gas

Name: R32 (HFC-32) – Difluoromethane Type: Difluoromethane Chemical formula: CH2F2 ThermoKey microchannel core (TKMicro25), thanks to its high-quality materials and increased thicknesses, is already compatible with the new R32 and all the refrigerants, current and future ones, with operating pressure (PS) equal to 50 bar and inlet temperature on the gas side of the exchanger (TS) equal to 150 ° C. The advantages in using R32 Energy efficiency: with equal consumptions, R32 allows...

The return of CO2 as a refrigerant

CO2 use in ThermoKey To stay in line with the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets set by the regulation, ThermoKey has long since introduced CO2 as a refrigerant for the whole range of evaporators. The GWP indicator - Global Warming Potential - is used to measure the level of global warming using a CO2 scale divided in 100 years. The ODP indicator - Ozone Depleting Potential - measures the impact of pollutants in the ozone-sphere and it is equal to the ratio between the ozone reduction...
