GAS R404A TIN 650G

Description

Product Description: R404A Refrigerant Gas (650g Compact Can / Tin) This product is a portable, compact 650g disposable tin can of R404A refrigerant gas. R404A is a non-ozone-depleting, near-azeotropic HFC (Hydrofluorocarbon) refrigerant blend composed of R-125 (44%), R-143a (52%), and R-134a (4%). Packaged in a convenient, lightweight pressurized small cylinder equipped with a threaded top valve connection, this product is specifically designed for HVAC/R field technicians making quick top-offs, minor system recharges, or servicing smaller hermetic cooling systems where hauling a heavy 10.9kg (24 lb) cylinder is impractical. Key Technical Specifications Refrigerant Type: R404A (HFC Blend) Net Weight: 650 grams (~1.43 lbs) Container Type: Disposable high-pressure tinplate can / small cylinder Boiling Point: -46.2°C (-51.2°F) Lubricant Requirement: Must be paired with synthetic Polyol Ester (POE) Oil (such as Emkarate RL 32H) for proper compressor oil return. Environmental Profile: ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) = 0. Compatible Machines & Systems R404A is the global standard working fluid for Low and Medium-Temperature commercial refrigeration systems. Originally developed as a long-term replacement for older R502 and R22 Freon gases, this 650g tin is compatible with the following machinery: Compatible Commercial Refrigeration Systems Commercial Display Cases: Plug-in supermarket glass-door drink chillers, open-air dairy cases, and deli display counters. Ice Machines: Commercial cubers, flakers, and nugget ice makers found in restaurants, hotels, and bars (e.g., Manitowoc, Scotsman, Hoshizaki). Refrigerated Transport: Smaller cooling units installed on food delivery vans and cold-chain transport trucks. Reach-In Freezers & Coolers: Commercial kitchen upright storage freezers and under-counter prep tables. Cold Storage Walk-Ins: Small-scale walk-in coolers or blast freezers matching its low-evaporating temperature profile. Compatible Compressor Equipment It is fully compatible with low-back-pressure (LBP) and medium-back-pressure (MBP) hermetic and semi-hermetic compressors designed by major manufacturers for HFC gases: Copeland: Standard Copeland Scroll and reciprocating compressors designed for commercial freezing. Tecumseh: Used to service small commercial hermetic compressor series (e.g., AJ, FH, and AW series). Danfoss / Secop: Fits commercial condensing units and light commercial cooling compressors running on R404A logic. Embraco: Widely used to top off Embraco asynchronous or inverter-driven commercial kitchen refrigeration pumps. ⚠️ Handling Note: R404A is a zeotropic blend, meaning it exhibits a slight temperature glide. For optimal system performance and to maintain the correct chemical ratio, always charge R404A in its liquid phase (turn the can upside down when charging) rather than as a vapor. Never use this gas in older systems running on Mineral Oil unless the oil has been completely flushed and replaced with synthetic POE oil.
