THE EVOLUTION OF REFRIGERANT GASES

The development of new refrigerant gases with reduced environmental impact and increasingly perishable requires greater protection of the system to maintain a high level of efficiency. Coolant liquids, in turn, have undergone important transformations. From their birth, in the 1930s, until today, the chemical composition has adapted to regulations to reduce the environmental impact of gases, counteracting global warming (GWP = GLOBAL WARMING POTENTIAL) and the reduction of ozone in the atmosphere (ODP = OZONE CLEARING POTENTIAL).

1st generation CFC (ChloroFluoroCarbides) e.g. R12 (freon)

2nd generation HCFC (HidroCloroFluoroCarburi) e.g. R22

3rd generation HFC (HidroFluoroCarburi) e.g. R134a

4th generation HFO (HidroFluoroOlefine) e.g. R1234yf

Main A/C system problems

Refrigerant leaks

Breakages or imperfections in the pipes can lead to more or less serious leaks of coolant, with serious consequences:

  • Acidification and aggression of metal surfaces
  • Difficulty identifying small leaks
  • Constant refrigerant gas leak
  • Serious pollution of the environment
  • Increasing maintenance costs
  • Reduction and termination of the system's cooling capacity

Solutions for correct maintenance

LEAK STOP ULTRA: The leak stopper against refrigerant leaks

  • Universal for any system
  • Effective for microleaks up to 0.3 mm
  • 100% safe, polymer-free and harmless to systems and charging stations
  • Works on metal components and rubber sealing elements
  • Contains UV fluorescent pigment

COOL PLUS: anti oil fouling treatment

  • Breakage of geometries and liberation from oil deposits
  • It brings impurities and encrustations back to their initial state (liquid), restoring the initial heat exchange capacity of the A/C system.
  • Increased performance
  • Increased compressor protection
  • Cleaner system lines and exchangers
