Reclamation carried out in accordance with the European Regulation F-Gas No 517/2014, quality of reclaimed R422D meets AHRI700-2017 standard (characteristics equivalent to those of the virgin product).

The reclaimed gas supplied by GeneralGas is labeled under RE 517/2014 with the indication that the substance has been properly reclaimed, indications on the batch number and the name and address of the regeneration site.

TECHNICAL NOTE:

As of 01/01/2020, the systems operated with gas type R404A/R507/R422D (i.e. with a value of GWP > 2.500), having a refrigerant charge of more than 40 Ton CO2 (equivalent, for example, to 10,2 kg of R404A), it will no longer be possible to use virgin gas in service or maintenance, as required by the current F-Gas regulation (EU Regulation 517/2014 art 13 paragraph 3).

The above legislation expressly prohibits the use of virgin gases, so any stock of such refrigerants (purchased before that date) will no longer be able to be used. In the absence of preventive retrofits (extraordinary maintenance) that provide for the replacement of the above refrigerants with more environmentally friendly refrigerants (e.g. HFO-based refrigerant mixtures, such as R448A-R449A-R452A etc. defined Low GWP, and in any case with GWP > 2 500), the use of reclaimed refrigerants is still possible in service or maintenance.

The use of regenerated refrigerant gas is permitted for a wide period, i.e. until 2030, as per the provisions contained in Regulation (EU) n ro 517/2014 art 13 paragraph 3 letters a) and b)

The reclaimed refrigerant has the same chemical composition and performance as virgin gas, perfectly corresponding to american AHRI700-2017 standards, universally recognized as a qualitative reference; reclaimed gas is obtained from industrial chemical processes, which use as a raw material waste made from refrigerant gases; its production is the prerogative of plants that are authorized by the Ministry of the Environment to treat waste.

The refrigerant designed for direct expansion chillers

Kryon® 422D is an easy-to-use and non-ozone depleting HFC refrigerant. It was develop in order to replace R-22 in already existing direct expansion water refrigerators.

Applications

Kryon® 422D in used in home and commercial air conditioning, in direct expansion water refrigerators and in food processing and preservation.

Performance

• Kryon® 422D allows easy, fast and favourable conversion.
• It allows the continuous use of existing plants.
• A lower delivery temperature compared to R-22.
• It is possible to fill the system up during the service, without having to remove the whole refrigerant charge.

Recommended Lubricants

Kryon® 422D is compatible with new and traditional lubricants (mineral oil, alkylbenzene or polyester). 
Most of the time changing the lubricant during the conversion is not necessary.

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 25,00 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.
