Product Description
The Honeywell Genetron® R134a Refrigerant Gas Cylinder (13.6kg) is a high-quality HFC refrigerant (1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane – CH₂FCF₃) designed for refrigeration, air conditioning, and automotive cooling applications. Known for its excellent thermodynamic properties, R134a delivers efficient cooling performance, reliable heat transfer, and long-term system stability.
R134a is widely used in medium-temperature refrigeration systems, automotive air conditioning systems, commercial refrigeration equipment, and various cooling applications. Its non-ozone-depleting formulation makes it a preferred replacement for older refrigerants in many systems.
This refrigerant is supplied as a compressed liquefied gas (UN 3159) and is classified as non-flammable under normal operating conditions (ASHRAE Safety Classification A1). When properly handled, it provides safe, dependable, and energy-efficient performance for professional HVAC/R applications.
The cylinder features durable steel construction, secure valve protection, and robust packaging to ensure safe storage, handling, and transportation.
