A Field-Proven Refrigerant That Replaces R-22 Without Requiring an Oil Change
Since fluorochemical refrigerants were introduced to the market more than 85 years ago, the Freon™ brand has been developing and evolving the chemistry behind them. Among those products is Freon™ MO99™ (R-438A), a retrofit refrigerant for R-22 that does not require an oil change.
Freon™ MO99™ works with:
- Residential and commercial air conditioning systems (rooftop and indoor packages units, direct expansion chillers, split systems)
- Low- and medium-temperature refrigeration systems (self-contained and rack systems, condensing units)
Features and Benefits:
Of all the "no oil change" replacement refrigerants, Freon™ MO99™ offers the closest performance match to R-22.
Freon™ MO99™ has compatibility with all traditional and new lubricants, including mineral oil (MO), polyolester (POE) oil, and alkylbenzene (AB) oil.
Freon™ MO99™ significantly lowers discharge temperatures, which may extend compressor life.
It facilitates easy retrofitting in which the technician simply recovers the R-22, replaces critical seals, charges the Freon™ MO99™ refrigerant, and monitors for leaks.
Converting to Freon™ MO99™ also:
- Minimizes time needed for adjustments and subsequent service calls
- Doesn't require an expansion valve or line set changes
- Achieves a 42% lower global warming potential (GWP) than R-404A
- Makes maintenance easy–once the retrofit is complete, the system can simply be topped off with Freon™ MO99™
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.
