R-407C 25 Lbs Refrigerant Virgin New Factory Sealed Gas
For veteran technicians looking for a virgin R-407C refrigerant to handle R-22 retrofits, this 25 lb factory-sealed cylinder provides the high-purity HFC blend required for consistent performance. As a zeotropic blend of R-32, R-125, and R-134a (23/25/52 wt%), R-407C is the primary OEM-approved R-22 replacement for positive displacement air conditioning and heat pump systems. It mirrors the pressure-temperature characteristics of HCFC-22 more closely than other alternatives, though professionals should account for a temperature glide of approximately 10°F during the charging process. This refrigerant is 100% virgin gas, meeting ARI-700 standards to ensure no cross-contamination or non-condensables interfere with system efficiency. When performing a conversion, remember that R-407C is immiscible with mineral oil; it requires a complete changeover to POE lubricant (typically targeting <5% residual mineral oil) to ensure proper oil return and compressor longevity. This factory-sealed R407C 25 lbs cylinder is the industry standard for maintaining legacy commercial and residential DX equipment while staying compliant with ozone-protection regulations.
- Direct R-22 Retrofit: Functions as the leading replacement for R-22 refrigerant in residential and commercial AC systems with minimal component changes.
- High Thermodynamic Efficiency: Offers superior heat transfer properties and energy efficiency comparable to HCFC-22.
- Environmentally Conscious: Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of approximately 1774, aligning with current environmental standards.
- Safe and Stable: Classified as ASHRAE A1 (non-flammable and low toxicity) for reliable use in standard HVAC applications.
- Broad Application: Suitable for use in dry expansion (DX) air conditioning, heat pumps, and medium-temperature refrigeration systems.
Common Questions About R-407C
Can I top off an R-22 system with R-407C?
No, R-407C cannot be mixed with R-22. Mixing refrigerants creates an unknown zeotropic blend that varies in pressure and temperature, potentially damaging the compressor and metering devices. The system must be fully evacuated before charging with 100% virgin R-407C.
Do I need to change the oil when switching to R-407C?
Yes. R-407C requires polyolester (POE) oil for proper lubrication. Because R-407C does not mix with the mineral oil or alkylbenzene oil used in old R-22 systems, failing to flush the oil will result in oil logging in the evaporator and eventual compressor failure.
How should R-407C be charged into a system?
Since R-407C is a zeotropic blend with significant glide, it must be charged as a liquid from the cylinder. Charging as a vapor can cause fractionation, altering the chemical composition of the refrigerant remaining in the tank and the gas entering the system.
