SEASON REFRIGERANT GAS R-22

SEASON Refrigerant Gas R-22 (HCFC-22 / CHClF₂) is a proven, high-performance refrigerant used for decades in residential, commercial, and industrial HVAC systems. Renowned for its strong cooling capacity, stable thermodynamic behavior, and broad compatibility, R-22 continues to support legacy systems that were originally designed for this refrigerant.

Although its production and use are restricted due to ozone depletion concerns, SEASON R-22 remains legally available only for servicing existing installations. It is offered in high-purity packaging to ensure reliable cooling performance in aging equipment.

Key Features

• Strong Cooling Capacity: Excellent performance in medium- and low-temperature systems.
• A1 Safety Classification: Non-flammable, low-toxicity refrigerant.
• Oil Compatibility: Works with Mineral Oil (MO) and Alkylbenzene (AB).
• High Purity: Manufactured to strict moisture-free standards for consistent system operation.
• Trusted for Legacy Systems: Suitable for older ACs, chillers, and refrigeration units.

Applications

• Residential & commercial split AC units
• Central AC systems
• Industrial chillers & cold room plants
• Supermarket display counters
• Medium & low-temperature refrigeration

Cylinder Dimensions & Handling

• 13.6kg cylinder height: approx. 45–48 cm
• Diameter: approx. 23–25 cm
• High-strength steel cylinder with anti-corrosion coating
• Store between 0–45 °C in shaded, ventilated area
• Always keep cylinders upright

Usage Guidelines

• Use only for servicing existing R-22 systems—not allowed in new installations.
• Follow proper refrigerant recovery and recycling protocols.
• Use compatible lubricants: MO or AB oil.
• Leak test, evacuate, and replace filter-drier before charging.
• Do not mix R-22 with other refrigerants.

Regulatory Notice

R-22 is subject to strict global phase-out regulations under the Montreal Protocol. Sale and use are allowed only for maintaining existing equipment.

Safety & Storage

• A1 non-flammable & non-toxic
• Wear protective gloves and goggles
• Ensure adequate ventilation during servicing
• Store cylinders upright and away from heat sources

FAQs

1. Is SEASON R-22 still available?
Yes, but only in limited quantities and only for servicing older systems.

2. Can R-22 be used in new AC installations?
No. New systems use R-410A, R-32, or low-GWP options.

3. What oils work with R-22?
Mineral Oil (MO) or Alkylbenzene (AB), depending on the compressor.

4. Is R-22 flammable?
No—classified as A1, non-flammable and safe under normal operating conditions.

5. Does R-22 require special handling?
Yes. Recovery, recycling, and environmental compliance are mandatory.
