R290, also known as Propane, is used as a new-generation gas to replace R22, R502, and R404a gases. Due to its low Global Warming Potential, this gas is preferred; however, it has a highly flammable characteristic. R290 gas is an environmentally friendly gas. These gases are also widely used in heat pump systems.
Application Areas
R290 gas has started to be widely used in many areas such as industrial-type refrigerators, supermarket refrigerators, and ice cream freezers. Its use in central air conditioning systems is still in the research and development stage. In Europe, due to the environmental impact of Freon gases, their usage is being reduced and flammable gases such as R290 are being preferred as alternatives.
Is R290 a Mixture or a Pure Gas?
R290 is a pure gas and does not contain any blended gases.
Storage Configurations
Our company offers R290 gas in various storage configurations. R290 gas is supplied by our company in cylinders of 1 Liter, 12 Liters (Net 4.4 KG), 61 Liters (Net 22 KG), 1000 Liters (Net 390 KG), and 22000 Liters (10,000 KG).
For 12-liter cylinders, we offer both dip tube and non-dip tube options. In non-dip tube cylinders, when charging liquid R290 gas into the system, the cylinder must be inverted. In dip tube cylinders, when charging liquid into the system, the cylinder should be kept in an upright position. The directional markings on dip tube cylinders should be carefully reviewed before use.
