CARE 45 (R1270)

CARE 45 (R1270 propylene, also known as propene) is a high-purity, single component substance.

It is ideal for use in many industrial and commercial refrigeration and air conditioning applications.

It can be used in place of R22 and offers high performance without any of the issues associated with temperature glide.

Features and benefits

operates at slightly higher pressures than R22 but similar to R404A
similar volumetric refrigerating effect to R22 and R404A
can be used in R22 or R404A compressors or a specific CARE 45 compressor
can be used with R502, R22, R404A and R407C heat exchangers and expansion devices
compatible with most common refrigeration materials and lubricants

Application and use

For use in commercial air-conditioning and large refrigeration systems where R22 has traditionally been used.

This gas is available in a variety of cylinder sizes and drums. Our most popular sizes are shown in the table below
