Description

Breezron® Refrigerants 404A (HFC-404A) is a non-ozone depleting compound designed to serve as a long-term alternative to Breezron® Refrigerants 502 (CFC-502) and Breezron® Refrigerants 22 (HCFC-22) in low and medium temperature commercial refrigeration applications. Applications where Breezron® Refrigerants 404A is a suitable retrofit refrigerant include supermarket freezer cases, reach-in coolers, display cases, transport refrigeration and ice machines.

Breezron® Refrigerants 404A has been designed as a substitute to Breezron® Refrigerants 502, but it is not a drop-in replacement. Mineral oils and alkylbenzene lubricants, which have been used traditionally with Breezron® Refrigerants 502, are immiscible with Breezron® Refrigerants 404A. Service technicians should consult the original equipment manufacturer for the recommended lubricants.

Breezron® Refrigerants 404A is a blend. For this reason it is essential that systems be charged only with liquid from the cylinder, not vapour. Vapour-charging Breezron® Refrigerants 404A may result in the wrong refrigerant composition and could damage the system.
