Refrigerant R-426A (RS-24)

RS-24 is an HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) refrigerant developed as a direct replacement for R-12 and its HCFC retrofit alternatives, such as R-406A and R-409A. With zero ozone depletion potential (ODP), it provides an environmentally acceptable solution for maintaining existing refrigeration systems.
It is designed to deliver cooling capacity and energy efficiency comparable to those of R-12. RS-24 is not suitable for use in centrifugal compressors.

RS-24 has been formulated to simplify the modernization of refrigeration systems originally designed for R-12 or certain HCFC replacement refrigerants. Its main advantage lies in the ability to perform conversions with minimal system modifications, reducing downtime and retrofit costs. It delivers cooling performance and energy efficiency similar to those achieved with the original refrigerant, helping maintain operational continuity. Thanks to its zero ozone depletion potential, RS-24 provides a solution that aligns with current environmental requirements across a wide range of commercial and industrial refrigeration applications.
