R744 (CO2)
Product Features and Benefits
Refrigerant grade R744 (CO2) is available from A‑Gas in gas (vapour) or liquid form
Non-flammable with a safety classification of A1
Compressors must be charged with modified polyolester oils - contact the compressor manufacturer for more information
Excellent thermodynamic properties and low energy requirements
R744 (CO2) can be used alongside other primary refrigerants such as hydrocarbon and ammonia
High operating pressures
Refrigeration systems that contain R744 (CO2) require strict controls on moisture, oil, and other contaminants - contact A‑Gas should a CO2 analysis be required
Ultra-low moisture content, less than 10 ppm
Industrial grade R744 (CO2) has an average water content of up to 10 times higher than the R744 (CO2) available from A‑Gas, resulting in the formation of carbonic acid - this can build up and result in corrosion of machinery and pipework
Vapour R744 (CO2) cylinders are available for initial pressurisation of systems, whilst liquid R744 (CO2) provides the required charge your system needs to operate efficiently
