Refrigeration System change from HFC to R290 Cubigel Compressors

Huayi Compressor Barcelona is committed to the use of R290 natural refrigerant in commercial refrigeration systems as the best option for refrigerant gases. Among its most significant benefits include the reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere due to the significant reduction in energy consumption, having better performance in the operation of the compressor.

To convert a refrigeration system that uses HFC refrigerants to propane R290, it does not require drastic changes in the design of the equipment. Huayi Compressor prepared this video to explain how to convert a commercial bottle application to propane in which the compressor, filter and capillary tube must replace.
