ISCEON MO29 ISCEON MO29 is one of the leading multipurpose replacements for R-22 in existing direct expansion water chiller systems, residential, commercial air conditioning and medium/low temperature refrigeration systems. R-422D R-22 Multi-purpose replacement for R-22 in direct expansion equipment (air conditioning, water chiller systems and medium/low temperature refrigeration). Non-ozone-depleting HFC retrofit s in most cases, no change of lubricant type is needed Enables continued use of existing equipment Close match to R-22 capacity and efficiency in most systems Lower discharge temperature vs. R-22-likely to prolong the life of the compressor in some systems ISCEON MO29 is compatible with traditional and new lubricants, including mineral oil, alkylbenzene and polyol ester. In most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is needed. See Product Information Bulletin and retrofit guidelines for additional information. ISCEON 39TC ISCEON 39TC is one of the leading, non-ozonedepleting HFC retrofit s for R-12 in centrifugal chillers. R-423A R-12 Centrifugal chillers designed for R-12 Non-ozone-depleting HFC retrofit s Retrofit typically requires a single lubricant change to polyol ester without additional flushing Avoids expensive engineering changes to existing chiller equipment Enables cost-effective, continued use of existing chiller equipment Provides required cooling capacity and comparable energy efficiency vs. R-12 Similar discharge temperature and pressure vs. R-12 For most systems, only one lubricant change to polyol ester during retrofit is required. ISCEON 39TC tolerates high residual levels of mineral oil in polyol ester; therefore, no system flushing is generally required after changing the original lubricant to polyol ester. See ISCEON 39TC Retrofit Guidelines for more details. 4 5
ISCEON MO49Plus ISCEON MO49Plus is a cost-effective, non-ozonedepleting HFC retrofit for R-12 automotive and stationary air conditioning in direct expansion mediumtemperature stationary refrigeration systems. R-437A (pending) TM R-12, R-413A, HCFC-containing blends (e.g. MP39, MP66, R-409A) Automotive AC systems designed for R-12 Refrigeration systems, designed for R-12 including: food service supermarket display cases food storage and processing domestic refrigerators/freezers Provides cost-effective retrofits Non-ozone-depleting HFC retrofit in most cases, no change of lubricant type is needed Enables continued use of existing equipment ASHRAE safety classification of A1 (see AS-1 bulletin and MSDS) Provides up to 10% better cooling capacity vs. R-12 Provides similar to slightly lower energy efficiency vs. R-12 Lower discharge temperature vs. R-12 For R-12 automotive air conditioning systems, ISCEON MO49Plus is compatible with mineral oil in existing R-12 systems. In most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is needed. For R-12 stationary medium-temperature refrigeration and air conditioning systems, ISCEON MO49Plus is compatible with traditional and new lubricants mineral oil, alkylbenzene and polyol ester. In most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is needed. Refer to ISCEON MO49Plus Retrofit Guidelines for more details. ISCEON ISCEON MO59 is an efficient and cost-effective, non-ozone-depleting HFC retrofit for R-22 in direct expansion air conditioning. Best suited to replace R-22 in small A/C (<15kW) systems R-417A R-22 MO59 Split air conditioning systems Note: for water chillers ISCEON MO29 is recommended Non-ozone-depleting HFC retrofit s in most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is required Enables the continued use of existing equipment ASHRAE safety classification of A1 (see AS-1 bulleting and MSDS) Lower discharge temperature and pressure vs. R-22-likely to prolong the life of the compressor Has been shown to offer energy savings in some systems ISCEON MO59 is compatible with traditional and new lubricants, including mineral oil, alkylbenzene and polyol ester. In most cases, no change of lubricant type during retrofit is needed. See the ISCEON MO59 Retrofit Guidelines for more details. 6 7
ISCEON MO79 ISCEON MO79 is one of the leading non-ozone depleting HFC s for replacing R-502 and R-402, R-403 and R-408 series HCFC-containing blends in commercial and industrial direct expansion refrigeration systems.
