Supermarket chain nixes CFCs in new store's refrigeration equipment.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The chain found that by using R507, an azeotropic mixture of R125-R143a, instead of R22, which is facing regulatory control starting in 1996, it could count on having a reliable refrigerant for the life of its stores. The refrigerant "appears to be providing better efficiency than R22 in low-and medium-temperature refrigeration systems".
