It Feels Like You're Working with R-410A

To a service technician, the look and feel of Opteon™ XL41 systems would be similar to those of R-410A. That’s because XL41 is a very close performance match to R-410A. Overall, installation and service procedures will be similar. The same types of best practices in use today with R-410A can be used with Opteon™ XL41.

No Need to Replace Your Entire Tool Set

Many of the existing tools in use with R-410A will still be suitable for Opteon™ XL41 systems as technicians can expect to see similar operating pressures and temperatures with XL41. Lubricants commonly used with R-410A can be compatible with XL41 due to similar miscibility and viscosity between R-410A and XL41. Additionally, R-410A and XL41 are both lower glide blends, so similar charging techniques can be used for both refrigerants.

Harder to Ignite. Easy to Learn.

The degree of flammability between A2Ls and A3s differs significantly. A2Ls, such as Opteon™ XL41, are less likely to form flammable concentrations in the air than A3 refrigerants, making them inherently safer to use. The minimum ignition energy of an A2L is much higher than that of an A3. In fact, many common electrical components used today in the HVAC industry can’t ignite A2Ls.
