Because of that, air conditioners had to be redesigned to accept the new refrigerant, which is considered slightly flammable. If your first question is “flammable?” and your second question is ...

As A2Ls increasingly become the refrigerants of choice, are your students and technicians prepared for the changes they will need to make when working with these non-toxic but mildly flammable ...

Many believe that after A2Ls, R-290 (propane), a flammable A3 refrigerant, will be the primary candidate for comfort cooling applications. As evidence, they point to Europe and the United Kingdom (UK) ...

Propane, on the other hand, excels in different conditions and operates at a lower pressure than the refrigerants it would replace. It also has a global warming potential of just 3. Propane is ...

Refrigerants with low global warming potential are more sustainable for the planet, but often more flammable than traditional HFCs. UL Solutions’ Zhongshan laboratory is addressing safety ...

“CO2 and R1336mzz(E) are both non-flammable with GWP lower than 7.” The scientists conducted a series of simulations to assess the performance of the proposed refrigerant and considered its ...

Propane is flammable, of course, but heat pumps can run it safely by separating sources of ignition, like electrical components, from the refrigerant compartments. “It is kind of perfect for ...
