Commercial Refrigeration Products for Supermarkets
Product Name ASHRAE # Product Description
Solstice® L40X R-455A Long-term, F-Gas-proof solution with an ultra-low GWP of only 146 (IPCC 5). A mildly flammable, zeotropic blend that serves as an alternative for low, medium and high temperature applications in new systems. Close capacity match to R-404A, an extended operating envelope when compared to propane or air-conditioning refrigerants, and high energy efficiency. The product’s minimal flammability risk profile, high efficiency, high critical temperature and low critical pressure, makes it also a potential match for other applications such as chillers, heat pumps, or transport refrigeration.
Solstice® N13 R-450A Non flammable alternative to R-134a in medium temperature systems, offering similar performance and energy efficiency but with a global warming potential of only 547, a reduction of almost 60% of GWP.
Solstice® N40 R-448A Excellent low-GWP, highly energy efficient and non-flammable refrigerant for low and medium temperature in commercial refrigeration. The best currently available replacement for R-404A in supermarket refrigeration retrofits or new systems, vending machines (plug-ins) and other applications.
Genetron Performax® LT R-407F A long-term, non-ozone depleting replacement for R-22 suitable for medium and low temperature applications. Since Genetron Performax LT is a close match to R-22, it also serves as a retrofit fluid in refrigeration applications where R-22 is used.
Genetron® 404A R-404A This product has GWP of 3922. The European Commission has a proposal to prohibit refrigerants with GWP >2500 for servicing and maintaining commercial refrigeration equipment. Honeywell recommends selecting Genetron Performax LT.
Genetron® 134a R-134a Used for MAC, bus and train A/C, ORC, and medium-temperature stationary applications, however it’s being replaced by Solstice® yf (in MAC).  In ORC, you can replace it with Genetron 245fa. For medium-temperature stationary applications, replace 134a with Solstice ze.
Genetron® 22 R-22 As an HCFC, this product is being phased out globally. Honeywell recommends using Genetron Performax LT or one of the Solstice range products.
Genetron® 409A R-409A An interim replacement for R-12 in refrigeration systems. For low- and medium-temperature retrofits.
Genetron® AZ-50® R-507A This product has GWP of 3985. European Commission has a proposal to prohibit refrigerants with GWP > 2500 for servicing and maintaining commercial refrigeration equipment. Honeywell recommends selecting Genetron Performax LT or one of the Solstice products.
