 |
 |

ISCEON® MO79 is an easy-to-use, non-ozone-depleting HFC refrigerant for replacing R-22, R-502, and HCFC-containing refrigerant blends in medium- and low-temperature commercial and industrial direct expansion refrigeration systems.

Refer to Copeland's Changeover Guidelines, which now include R-22 to ISCEON® MO29 (R-422D) and ISCEON® MO79 (R-422A).

Applications

- Medium- and low-temperature commercial and industrial direct expansion refrigeration, including:
- food service
- supermarket display cases
- food storage and processing
- ice machines
|
|
 |
 |
Benefits

- provides easy, quick, cost-effective retrofits -- easier retrofit than R-404A and R-507
- 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
- 20% lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) vs. R-404A and R-507
- can be topped off during service without removing the entire refrigerant charge
|
|
 |
 |
Performance

- provides improved cooling capacity over R-22 at many operating conditions with up to +15% at low temperature conditions
- provides comparable cooling capacity to R-404A
- field testing shows can provide improved energy efficiency vs. R-22
- significantly lower discharge temperature vs. R-22 – likely to prolong the life of the compressor

Phaseout Schedule

ISCEON® MO79 is a zero-ozone-depleting substance and, therefore, is not subject to phaseout under the Montreal Protocol regulations.

|
|
 |
 |
Lubricant Recommended

ISCEON® MO79 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 required. Refer to the ISCEON® MO79 Retrofit Guidelines and Copeland's changeover guidelines, which now include ISCEON® MO29 & ISCEON® MO79, for additional information.
