Solstice® 454B - (R-454B)
Solstice® 454B (R-454B) is a non-ozone-depleting, zeotropic blend designed as a low GWP alternative to R-410A in comfort air cooling and reversible heating applications.
Overview
Solstice® 454B demonstrates improved efficiency and matching capacity to R-410A, with a GWP that’s 78% lower, minimizing redesign costs and capital expenditures. Solstice 454B (R-454B) is the most optimized R-410A replacement, providing easy conversion with minimal changes from a R-410A design.
Thanks to its high critical temperature and broader operating envelope in low evaporating temperatures, Solstice® 454B outperforms other refrigerant alternatives in normal and high ambient conditions in a variety of applications such as:
- Direct expansion (DX) chillers
- High-pressure heat pumps
- Residential/light commercial A/C
- Commercial packaged systems
