Product Description
R410A replaces global trends and prospects in major international markets, usage status and dynamic physical properties data entering the international market. R410A is a mixed refrigerant, which is composed of R32 (difluoromethane) and R125 (pentafluoroethane). The advantage of the mixture is that a refrigerant can be tailor-made according to specific use requirements, taking into account various properties such as flammability, capacity, exhaust temperature and efficiency. R410A is colorless in appearance, not turbid, volatile, boiling point -51.6℃, freezing point -155℃;
Key Features and Benefits:
✅ Does not damage the ozone layer. Its molecular formula does not contain chlorine, so its ozone depletion potential (ODP) is 0. Its global warming potential (GWP) is 2100, which is 1725 times that of carbon dioxide, similar to R-22.
✅ Extremely low toxicity. The allowable concentration is the same as R22, both 1000ppm.
✅ Non-flammable. The flammable polarity in air is 0.
✅ High chemical and thermal stability
✅ Water solubility is almost the same as R22.
✅ It is a mixed refrigerant composed of two refrigerants
✅ Not compatible with mineral oil or alkylbenzene oil. (Compatible with POE [ester lubricant], PVE [ether lubricant])

FAQ
Is this an empty tank or is it pre-filled with other gases?
This canister contains 25 pounds of refrigerant.
Is R410A flammable?
❌ Non-flammable! R410A belongs to the A1 safety level, which means low toxicity and non-flammable, which is safer than R32 (A2L, slightly flammable).
Is it necessary to change the lubricating oil when using R410A?
✅ POE (polyester) lubricant needs to be replaced!
The R410A system must use POE oil, and cannot use mineral oil or AB (alkylbenzene) oil commonly used in R22, otherwise it may cause poor lubrication and affect the life of the compressor.
Why does the refrigerant not work?
1. Refrigerant Leakage
- Cause: There may be leaks in the system, causing refrigerant to escape, which prevents the system from properly exchanging heat.
- Solution: Inspect all connections, pipes, and components for cracks or corrosion. Use appropriate leak detection tools (e.g., nitrogen leak detection) to locate the leak, and repair the leakage point. Afterward, recharge the system with the required amount of refrigerant.
2. Insufficient Refrigerant
- Cause: If the refrigerant level is too low, the system may not function properly or may not work at all. This often occurs after installation or maintenance, where refrigerant was not charged correctly.
- Solution: Check the refrigerant pressure and ensure the correct amount is present in the system. If insufficient, top up the refrigerant to the required level.
3. Incompatible Refrigerant
- Cause: The system may require a specific type of refrigerant, and using an incorrect refrigerant can prevent the system from operating properly.
- Solution: Ensure that the correct refrigerant type is being used. For example, if the system is designed for R410A, do not use R22 or other refrigerants. Check the equipment manual to confirm the required refrigerant type.
4. Compressor Failure
- Cause: The compressor is the core component in the refrigerant cycle. If the compressor fails, the refrigerant cannot circulate and pressurize, resulting in no cooling effect.
- Solution: Check if the compressor is functioning properly by inspecting electrical connections and protective devices. If necessary, repair or replace the compressor.
5. Condenser or Evaporator Blockage
- Cause: Dirt, oil, or frost buildup on the condenser or evaporator can reduce heat exchange efficiency, leading to poor or no cooling performance.
- Solution: Clean the condenser and evaporator surfaces by removing dust, oil, or ice buildup. Ensure proper airflow and check if the condenser fan is working correctly.
6. Expansion Valve or Throttling Device Malfunction
- Cause: The expansion valve or throttling device regulates refrigerant flow. If these components malfunction, it can disrupt refrigerant flow, impacting the system’s cooling performance.
- Solution: Check the expansion valve or throttling device for proper operation. If faulty, repair or replace the damaged component.
7. Thermostat Failure
- Cause: If the thermostat is malfunctioning, it may fail to trigger the system to start or operate properly, resulting in no cooling.
- Solution: Check the thermostat settings to ensure they are correct. If the thermostat is damaged, consider replacing it.
8. System Contamination or Dirty Components
- Cause: Contaminants like moisture, air, or other foreign particles can affect the flow and heat exchange properties of the refrigerant.
- Solution: Perform a thorough cleaning of the system, remove contaminants, and ensure that dry refrigerant is used for charging.
9. External Environmental Factors
- Cause: Extreme external temperatures, either too high or too low, can affect the system's ability to operate properly. For example, air conditioning systems may not cool effectively in very hot conditions.
- Solution: Ensure the refrigerant system is used within the environmental temperature range specified by the manufacturer. Avoid using the system in extreme conditions.
10. System Design Issues
- Cause: A poorly designed or improperly installed system may cause refrigerant to fail to circulate properly.
- Solution: Inspect the system design to ensure all components are installed correctly. If design flaws are found, adjustments or component replacements may be necessary.
Summary:
When refrigerant is not working, it’s essential to check for leaks, insufficient refrigerant, or malfunctioning components. Inspect key parts such as the compressor, expansion valve, and evaporator for issues. In cases of more complex problems, it’s recommended to consult with a professional technician for a more detailed diagnosis and repair.
Are there any special requirements for the charging method of R410A?
✅ Must be filled in liquid form!
R410A is a mixed refrigerant (R32+R125). If it is filled in gaseous form, it may lead to uneven composition ratio and affect system performance. Therefore, it is recommended to invert the cylinder and fill it in liquid form.
What applications is R410A suitable for?
Mainly used for:
✅ Household and commercial air conditioners (wall-mounted, cabinet, central air conditioners, VRF systems)
✅ Air source heat pumps (heating and hot water systems)
✅ Chillers
✅ New energy electric vehicle air conditioners
✅ Industrial dehumidifiers, food refrigeration equipment
