Moving Forward Phase out of HFC s Challenges Ensuring supplier base is prepared Compressor Manufactures R290 Refrigerant Supply The magnitude of hours of testing Development Regulatory The financial costs of design and manufacturing conversion

Initial Laboratory Testing Safety Testing (UL 471 & EN 60335-2-89) Refrigerant leak testing requires specialized equipment for the determination of refrigerant concentration Additional testing for the refrigerant leaks Additional construction review and testing of the new models

Education What has True done to prepare the market for Hydrocarbon Refrigerants? Education Training Supply's and tools

Education Collaborative efforts with industry suppliers and training organizations to develop training program and certification test for all industry service technicians True Mfg. initiated and ultimately combined with RSES to create the certification and training course Currently True has our preferred service providers go through the newly established RSES training and certification program for Hydrocarbon refrigerants

Training Service Providers trained to work on HC equipment

Safe Charging Technology combined with integrated Safety Monitoring System From a manufacturing standpoint, the use of Hydrocarbon refrigerants pose some new challenges. Therefore the manufacturing area requires a safety zone and specialized equipment specifically designed for this use. Today, there is advanced and safety integrated charging equipment that has been developed by leading process equipment manufacturers. True has partnered with the world's largest producer of charging equipment for hydrocarbons for the refrigeration industry. has teamed with this technology to deliver state of the art processing technology with integrated and proven safety systems to deliver the highest quality product with the highest level of safety available.

Service Tools True has developed a safe, disposable and environmentally friendly Hydrocarbon adsorption capture system. Although Venting is approved with the most recent SNAP regulation this device was developed in the event HCs require to capture. This device is available for those service providers that prefer to capture the HC refrigerant during a system service event The Industry s Most Complete Refrigeration Source
