DuPont™ ISCEON® MO49 refrigerant


DuPont ISCEON MO49ISCEON® MO49 is an easy-to-use, non-ozone-depleting HFC retrofit refrigerant for R-12 in automotive, air conditioning and for R-12 and HCFC-containing refrigerant blends (e.g., MP39, MP66, and R-409A) in stationary air conditioning (AC) and in direct expansion, medium-temperature stationary refrigeration systems.

Note:   ISCEON® MO49 is not available in the U.S.

Technical/Properties/Engineering



ASHRAE #

R-413A

Replaces

R-12 and HCFC-containing blends (e.g., MP39, MP66, and R-409A)

Applications

  • Automotive AC systems designed for R-12
  • Stationary AC systems designed for R-12
  • Stationary medium temperature refrigeration systems, designed for R-12 including:
    • food service
    • supermarket display cases
    • food storage and processing
    • domestic refrigerators/freezers
Benefits

  • provides easy, quick, cost-effective retrofits
  • non-ozone-depleting HFC
  • in most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is required -- compatible with traditional and new lubricants
  • enables continued use of existing equipment
  • can be topped off during service without removing the entire refrigerant charge 
Performance

  • provides equal or better cooling capacity vs. R-12
  • provides similar energy efficiency vs. R-12
  • lower discharge temperature vs. R-12
Phaseout Schedule

ISCEON® MO49 is a zero ozone-depleting substance (ODS) and, therefore, is not subject to phaseout under the Montreal Protocol regulations.
Lubricant Recommended

R-12 automotive AC systems:
ISCEON® MO49 is compatible with mineral oil (MO) in existing R-12 systems.   In most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is needed.


R-12 stationary medium temperature refrigeration and AC systems: 
ISCEON® MO49 is compatible with traditional and new lubricants-- mineral oil (MO), alkylbenzene (AB) and polyol ester (POE) -- in most cases no change of lubricant type during retrofit is needed.   See the ISCEON® MO49 Retrofit Guidelines for more details.

ASHRAE Safety Classification

A2

As formulated, ISCEON® MO49 is non-flammable in air at atmospheric pressure and normal temperatures. This refrigerant can be used safely under normal use conditions.

See the Safety of DuPont Refrigerants (AS-1) bulletin and the MSDS for proper storage, handling and use details.
