Opteon™ YF the Sustainable, Low GWP Auto Air Conditioning Solution
Opteon™ YF provides the optimal balance of performance, sustainability and safety.
U.S. and EU regulations have created the need for a high-performing, low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant solution. Opteon™ YF (HFO-1234yf) meets the challenge.
Automotive air conditioning units using Opteon™ YF technology achieve required performance levels, exceeding expectations and helping put customers out in front of environmental regulations. The lasting benefits include:
-
Optimal balance of performance, sustainability (GWP of <1) and safety -
Compliant with Global Regulations-
Meets the EU MAC Directive -
Thermally stable under extreme conditions
-
-
Comparable properties to R-134a:-
Similar P/T at all operating conditions -
Similar Energy efficiency -
Similar Capacity
-
-
Cost-effective means to secure US CO2 credits -
Cost-effective transition for EU compliance
Opteon™ YF cools like HFC-134a in automotive air conditioning system, but with a much lower GWP–even lower than CO2. The breakthrough Opteon™ chemistry provides low GWP benefits and retains other important properties including comparable capacity and energy efficiency, low toxicity, and zero ozone-depletion potential.
