Seltrade offers R-600a refrigerant gas, a high-purity hydrocarbon (isobutane) refrigerant widely used in household refrigeration, small commercial systems, and portable cooling appliances. Known for its excellent thermodynamic performance and ultra-low environmental impact, R-600a refrigerant gas is a top choice for eco-friendly, energy-efficient cooling applications.

Key Features

Natural, Eco-Friendly Refrigerant: R-600a is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon with zero ozone depletion potential (ODP = 0) and very low Global Warming Potential (GWP ≈ 3). It is one of the most climate-friendly refrigerants available and is commonly used in green refrigeration systems worldwide.

High Energy Efficiency: R-600a offers superior energy performance compared to traditional HFCs and HCFCs, leading to lower operating costs and improved system efficiency. Its excellent cooling capacity and low power consumption make it ideal for energy-conscious applications.

Common Applications:R-600a is extensively used in domestic refrigerators and freezers, commercial bottle coolers, beverage display cabinets, and small medical refrigeration units. It performs exceptionally well in systems with smaller charge sizes and compact designs.

Lubricant Compatibility: R-600a is compatible with mineral oil and synthetic lubricants such as POE, depending on the system design. It offers excellent miscibility and oil return properties for optimal compressor performance.

ASHRAE A3 Safety Classification: R-600a is classified as A3 — non-toxic but highly flammable. Therefore, it must be handled with care, with proper ventilation and safety protocols in place. Its use is restricted to systems with appropriate leak prevention and safety mechanisms.
