Switching to more sustainable hydrocarbon refrigerants?

Governmental and environmental legislations urge manufacturers all around the world to utilize more sustainable refrigerants such as hydrocarbons instead of non-flammable ones. If you are considering to make the switch, we at AGRAMKOW are more than happy to provide you with the necessary guidance. We are experts in the areas of safety, equipment requirements, test & performance equipment, data collection and surveillance and can give you the guidance you need to guarantee an unobstructed transition.

AGRAMKOW safety solutions

AGRAMKOW assures safe operation during a production line charging air-conditioners or refrigerators using flammable refrigerants such as hydrocarbons R600 or R290. We aim to provide guidelines for management to establish safety concepts and equipment to prevent and detect safety hazards.

AGRAMKOW safety concepts for A2, A2L and A3 hydrocarbon refrigerants

As of 2014, the three groups of toxic and non-toxic refrigerants were expanded with the addition of the 2L sub-class as certain refrigerants revealed lower flammability properties.

AGRAMKOW has developed several concepts, which accommodate for the use of different flammable refrigerants according to ISO and ATEX standards. Using AGRAMKOW concepts, you make sure that the safety and health of your workers is the highest priority. Every proposed solution will never exceed ATEX Zone 2 and is therefore a cost effective choice for your production.
