Recommended Lubricants
Kryon® 404A is used with all lubricants that are miscible with HFC refrigerants. General Gas recommend the use of a lubricant like polyol ester ( POE ) that has been approved by compressor manufacturers. Different kinds of polyol ester (POE) are not interchangeable. In case of conversion of the system, please consult the compressor manufacturer in order to verify the correct type and viscosity grade.
KryoBox® Cylinders
KryoBox® cylinders are helpful every time a limited quantity of refrigerant charge is needed.
These cylinders are light and easy to handle compared to the traditional ones, therefore their transportation is much easier. KryoBox® cylinders are available in two formats, 6 liters and 12,5 liters; they are manufactured in full compliance with T-PED (Transportable Pressure Equipment Directive) and are packed in high-strength cardboard boxes in order to make their transport and storage on the shelf much easier.
KryoBox® cylinders R134a (AUTO) are provided with a special quick coupling automatic valve that prevents leaks that usually occur with plug valves; standard valve 1/4” with handwheel and safety device is also available for all refrigeration and residential air conditioning applications. In addition, KryoBox® R410A cylinders are supplied with an adapter with outlet 5/16" SAE.
We have always been sensitive to environmental issues; with the “F-Gas-Friend”, General Gas has implemented the F-Gas Directive by buying back the refillable KryoBox® Cylinders, cylinders, so that they are not wasted in the environment and can be regenerated and filled again.
Performance
KryoBox® cylinders are light but they are also sturdy thanks to the protection of high-strength cardboard. Cardboard boxes are provided with a special aperture that allows you to connect the charging hose to the outlet valve, without having to remove the cylinder from its cardboard box.
Even in upside down position, it is possible to mount the hose in such a way that it is easy to open the valve while taking the liquid gas phase.
KryoBox® cylinders are refillable; they can be regenerated and filled again. In that case a yellow label (F-Gas Friend) will be stuck on the cylinder.
GeneralGas KryoBox cylinders are manufactured in compliance with the European T-PED regulation and are refillable an infinite number of times.
The displayed price includes a value of 30,00 euro, corresponding to the security deposit of the empty container; this security deposit constitutes a binding modality for the return of the container for refilling purposes, as provided for by Article 11 paragraph 4 of the new Reg. (EU) Fgas 2024/573.
GeneralGas also provides an effective refill service for the empty container and subsequent return to the customer (HandyGas service), carried out at the GeneralGas plant in Cernusco sul Naviglio (MI).
Thanks to our exclusive HandyGas Refill and Redelivery service, if you return the empty KryoBox container you will be entitled to receive a new KryoBox cylinder for the price of the refill only (you will therefore only pay the value of the refrigerant gas).
Note: the cost of shipping the empty container from the customer's warehouse to the GeneralGas plant in Cernusco sul Naviglio is borne by the customer.
