Webinar on R404A conversions

BELGIUM: With the pressure on to quit using high GWP refrigerants like R404A, Honeywell is hosting a webinar on how to retrofit to a lower GWP alternative.

Entitled Best Practices for Successful Retrofits with R448A, the webinar will describe the retrofit procedure for conversion of R404A or interim blends to Solstice N40, Honeywell’s R448A brand.

Based on extensive field experience with actual conversions, Honeywell experts Jean de Bernardi, technical manager, and Pawel Wisnik, senior applications engineer, will take listeners through the critical parameters for a successful retrofit and explain how to work with refrigerant blends with glide.

Participants will also learn how to calculate compressors or condensers size when changing to a blend with glide.

The webinar will take place on June 7 at 16.00 CEST.
