Green icon saying Natural Refrigerants ONLY.

R744 - CO2

  • Natural refrigerant with a wide temperature range

  • Non-toxic and non-flammable

  • Excellent choice for air-sourced heat pumps for direct use in the energy collectors and with high delta T on the heat sink side

  • Optimal for medium-temperature water-sourced heat pumps, chillers and combined heating and cooling applications

  • Medium-high temperature level on heat sink (up to 85°C supply temp) with high delta T on the heat sink (dT: 30-40K)

R600a - Isobutane

  • High-temperature natural refrigerant

  • Suitable for water-sourced heat pumps and chillers

  • Can be used in a wide temperature range on both the heat source and heat sink sides

  • Robust operation under various operating conditions

  • Use of efficient screw compressors and high COP of the cycle

  • High temperature level on heat source (up to 40°C evap. temp)

  • High temperature level on heat sink (up to 95°C supply temp) and ideal with low delta T on heat sink - serial coupling on water side at higher delta T

R290 - Propane

  • Low-temperature natural refrigerant

  • Suitable for lower temperature water-sourced heat pumps and chillers

  • Low temperature level on heat source (down to -30 °C evap. temp)

  • Medium temperature level on heat sink (up to 75 °C supply temp)

  • Ideal with low delta T on sink and heat source

  • High refrigeration capacity ensures compact solutions with small footprint

  • Can be combined with isobutane in serial hydraulic couplings
