R407C Refrigerant
R407C is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant widely used in freezers, cold storage facilities, refrigeration systems, and heat pumps. It was developed as a replacement for R22, a refrigerant known to damage the ozone layer. With cooling performance comparable to R22 but an Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of 0 and a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP), R407C provides an environmentally friendly solution that does not harm the atmosphere while delivering reliable efficiency.

Benefits of R407C Refrigerant
Energy Efficiency: With high cooling performance, R407C helps reduce overall energy consumption.
Environmentally Friendly: R407C has a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) and does not deplete the ozone layer.
Safe to Use: Non-flammable and non-toxic, R407C poses no health hazards.
Long Service Life: With very low acidity, R407C is non-corrosive to refrigeration system components, extending equipment lifespan and reducing long-term costs.
Storage and Safety Precautions
Avoid Direct Contact: Prevent skin and eye contact, as exposure may cause cold burns or frostbite.
Inhalation Risks: Breathing in large amounts may cause irregular heartbeat or loss of consciousness.
Proper Storage: Store in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, at temperatures not exceeding 49°C, and keep away from ignition sources.
Leak Handling: If a refrigerant leak occurs in air-conditioning or refrigeration systems, repairs must be performed only by qualified technicians.
