Mokon announced a new line of low-GWP refrigerant, portable chillers. These chillers feature an updated design and accurate and reliable process control, with cooling capacities up to 60 tons. They will use the new low-GWP refrigerants Mokon is now offering – R-454B and R-513A.

Both refrigerants have low toxicity and do not contain chemicals that harm the ozone layer. This helps them comply with recent U.S. government standards requiring manufacturers to use refrigerants with a GWP below 700, as R-454B has 446 GWP and R-513A has 572 GWP.
“Our two new refrigerants have been rigorously tested and refined to offer users the same Mokon quality our systems have been known for while also complying well within GWP standards,” said Dan Healy, General Manager, Mokon. “We will continue to provide long-term support to all of our systems currently in use, including the R-407C and R-134A. Parts and gas will remain available for the next several years and customers will continue to be allowed to service and repair their units.”
