R1234ze

Solstice^® 1234ze is a low GWP, energy-efficient alternative to traditional refrigerants for air-cooled and water-cooled chillers in a range of applications and have already been used in supermarkets and commercial buildings.

Efficiency of Solstice^® ze is comparable to R-134a.  Solstice^® 1234ze has a GWP of <1.  It has low toxicity and is non-flammable at ambient temperature.

The use of Solstice^® ze in new equipment is cost-effective and fast because only minor system adaption is required to achieve results similar to medium-pressure refrigerants like R-134a.  It is significantly safer in use than other very low GWP alternatives which are either extremely flammable or toxic.

APPLICATIONS:  Chillers
ASHRAE CLASS:  A2L
GWP:  1
