    Efficiency of R600a



    Every fridge maker these days is using R600a as a highly efficient refrigerant, and I have seen some laboratory studies about it being about 50% more efficient than R22.

    I was wondering if anyone knows some kind of Thermal expansion valve that works with this refrigerant, as I would like to make some tests with old air conditioner units, especially for high temperature applications where r22 couldn't be used because of high head pressures.

    Thanks

    Beware the explosion factor.
