HC
Refrigerant products are efficient. HC-12a® needs only a 40% charge, by weight, of CFC R12,
and a 43% charge, by weight, of HFC R134a. HC-22a® and HC-502a® require only a 40% charge by weight
of HCFC R22 and CFC R502. The
following table converts our product containers to the respective
weights of the refrigerants they replace:
HC-12a®
6oz can = 15oz of CFC R12 and 14oz of HFC R134a
30 lb cylinder contains 12 lb of HC-12a® = 30 lbs
CFC R12 and 28 lbs HFC R134a
HC-22a®
30 lb cylinder contains 11 lb of HC-22a® =
27 lbs HCFC R22
HC-502a®
30 lb cylinder contains 11 lb of HC-502a® = 28 lbs
of CFC R502

NOTE: HC Refrigerants are flammable and should be leak tested using an
electronic hydrocarbon leak tester, fluorescent tracer fluid, or
soap bubbles. If leaks are discovered during charging, maintain
adequate ventilation, keep open flames away, and repair the leak.
After repairs have been made, resume the charging procedure. |
