BOREA R-407C: a solution for professional HVAC applications

BOREA R-407C is a refrigerant solution aimed at HVAC and refrigeration professionals who need to work with a gas widely used in commercial, industrial and maintenance applications. Within the BOREA range, R-407C offers a well-established alternative for compatible equipment that requires stable and safe operation.

It is especially widespread in air conditioning, heat pumps and certain refrigeration systems. At the same time, since it is an HFC refrigerant, both the technical characteristics of the equipment and current regulations should be considered before selecting this solution for a specific installation.

For which applications is BOREA R-407C suitable?

BOREA R-407C can be used in different HVAC and refrigeration systems, provided the equipment has been designed or adapted to operate with this refrigerant.

Its most common applications include:

Commercial air conditioning systems.
Heat pumps.
Chillers and water cooling units.
HVAC systems in buildings.
Certain commercial and industrial refrigeration applications.

This range of uses makes BOREA R-407C a useful solution for installation and maintenance companies that work with different types of equipment and need a versatile refrigerant for their operations.

Features and advantages of BOREA R-407C

BOREA R-407C is a zeotropic blend of HFC refrigerants with safety classification A1. This means it has low toxicity and is non-flammable under normal operating conditions, a feature that is especially relevant for professional HVAC applications.

In addition, R-407C provides suitable thermodynamic performance for numerous systems and has a long track record of use in the sector.

Its main characteristics are:

Safety classification A1.
Suitable for different HVAC applications.
Good performance in compatible systems.
Extensive track record in professional applications.
Can be used in certain conversions from R-22.

As a zeotropic blend, it exhibits temperature glide, which means it must be handled according to the appropriate technical procedures to maintain the correct composition of the refrigerant.

BOREA R-407C in systems operating with R-22

R-407C has been used for many years as one of the alternatives to R-22 in certain HVAC and refrigeration systems. For this reason, BOREA R-407C can be an option to consider in retrofitting projects, provided the installation is technically compatible.

However, it is not a drop-in refrigerant. Replacing R-22 with R-407C requires a prior assessment of the equipment, the lubricant used, the components and the operating conditions.

The viability of each conversion will depend on the specific characteristics of the installation, so a technical assessment is recommended before selecting the replacement refrigerant.
