CFC- and FHC-free refrigerators: a breakthrough in household refrigeration.

Author(s) : MEYER A.

Summary

The paper is indicative of the direction that Foron is going relative to implementation of hydrocarbon refrigerants. Focused on the application of 50-50 mixtures of hydrocarbon 290-600a (propane-isobutane), the author claimed energy efficiency improvements of over 10% using hydrocarbons compared to R12. This claim was also made based on a single-size charge of approximately 24 grammes more or less 2 grammes for all the Foron products inclusive of refrigerators, freezers, and refrigerator/freezers of various volumes.
