The phase-out of the
refrigerant R-22 by 2010 is a major event for the
refrigeration industry. The HFC refrigerant R-404A
has been selected by the industry as the replacement of
choice for most low- and medium-temperature
refrigeration applications, due to its high energy
efficiency and zero ozone-depletion potential.
Government regulations
aren’t new to the refrigeration industry. Section
608 of the U.S. Clean Air Act requires owners of systems
with more than 50 pounds of refrigerant charge to
maintain leak rates below a specified level, depending
on the type of equipment. Leaks can often occur in
large supermarket refrigeration systems that use
thousands of feet of copper piping with multiple braze
joints. The refrigerant must travel through the
lengthy piping to reach the refrigerated cases, creating
opportunities for leaks.

Refrigerant Changeover Guidelines – HCFC R-22 to HFC
R-422A/D
provides
contractors with detailed considerations and procedures for
retrofitting Copeland® Discus™ compressors to work with
newer, environmentally friendly refrigerants. It takes the
contractor through the changeover procedure step by step,
calling out all individual actions to be taken, ranging from
leak testing to component labeling.
The bulletin also notes
special considerations that contractors should take into
account before beginning the retrofit process, including
preparatory measures and precautions, additional replacement
requirements and a listing of tools and items necessary for
the retrofit.

 |
The
IRLDSII can continuously monitor multiple areas for low
levels of the CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants most commonly
used in commercial refrigeration systems. Emerson offers the
IRLDSII as a cost effective solution for comprehension
refrigerant leak detection. The IRLDSII easy
integrates into existing stores in order to meet local
building code compliance. |
