The Ideal Retrofit Solution For R-22 Cold Storage Systems

Are dependability, cost, and minimizing business risk a priority for you when evaluating R-22 replacements?

With the ban on the production and import of R-22 refrigerant in the U.S. and Canada effective January 1, 2020, cold storage owners and operators should be thinking about what’s next.

Now is the time to consider a more cost-effective R-22 alternative that minimizes your risk of business disruption while ensuring long-term compliance.

Opteon™ XP40: The Optimal Solution for Environmental and Economic Sustainability and Business Continuity

Reliable

Opteon™ XP40 retrofits minimize the risk of business disruption compared with other R-22 system replacement options, without sacrificing performance compared to R-22.

A typical warehouse retrofit from R-22 to Opteon™ XP40 can take approximately two days vs. eplacement with a new conversion to an ammonia system, which can take up to four months.

Cost Effective

When considering both short-term spend and future cost avoidance, Opteon™ XP40 offers significant advantages over other R-22 replacement options.

Cost of conversion from R-22 to Opteon™ XP40 averages 3-4x less (labor and refrigerants) vs. a new ammonia installation, and allows a cold storage facility to use R-22 recovered/banked during retrofit to service its remaining R-22 systems

Sustainable

Opteon™ XP40 is a non-ozone depleting refrigerant with ~30% lower GWP vs. R-22, and well positioned as a sustainable retrofit solution with <1,400 GWP.

Compatible

Opteon™ XP40 is compatible with existing R-22 and R-404A/507 equipment, allowing for operational consolidation of refrigerants.*

*For R-22 retrofits, oil changes and elastomeric seal replacements are recommended.

Extensively Field Tested and Proven

Opteon™ XP40 is running well, 24/7, in tens of thousands of commercial refrigeration systems operating worldwide.
