Genetron® 407C (R-407C)
Can be used as a replacement of R-22, but we strongly recommended using next generation refrigerants instead of R-22.
General Information
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|
| ASHRAE # | R-407C |
| Class | HFC |
| Refrigerant Type | Blend |
| Typical Lubricant | POE |
| Notes | Commercial Refrigeration: Reasonable performance match to R-22 in medium temperature refrigeration. Lower capacity in low temperature refrigeration systems. Air Conditioning and Heat Pumps: Best retrofit alternative to R-22. Close performance match with slightly higher operating pressures. |
