Solstice® 513A - (R-513A)
Solstice® 513A is a non-ozone depleting, low global warming potential (GWP) hydrofluoroolefin (HFO)- based refrigerant developed to replace R-134a.
Overview
Solstice® 513A is an excellent capacity and efficiency match for R-134a in new systems, as well as for retrofit of existing systems, offering an optimal balance of properties and benefits including:
- Reduced GWP: 56% reduction compared to R-134a
- Excellent capacity and energy efficiency match to R-134a
- Close performance match to R-134a for retrofit and new systems
- Azeotrope with zero glide
- Safe and nonflammable (ASHRAE A1)
- Approved by major equipment and component manufacturers
- Compatible with existing R-134a equipment design/lubricants
- Oil change and seal replacement is necessary when retrofitting systems running on HCFC service blends
