Environmentally friendly refrigerants: the key driving force for the green transformation of air coolers

With the continuous development of refrigeration technology, the application of environmentally friendly refrigerants in air coolers is becoming a focus of industry attention. Traditional refrigerants are gradually being replaced by more environmentally friendly alternatives due to their potential impact on the environment. As an important equipment in commercial and industrial fields, the choice of refrigerant for air coolers directly affects operational efficiency and ecological benefits.

At present, natural refrigerants such as R290 and R600a have been widely used in air coolers. These substances have low global warming potential (GWP) characteristics and can significantly reduce the damage to the ozone layer caused by equipment operation. Some companies have improved the energy efficiency ratio of natural refrigerants by more than 15% by optimizing the matching design between the air cooler compressor and heat exchanger, while reducing the noise and energy consumption during the operation of the air cooler.

Looking ahead, with the advancement of the carbon peak target, the demand for environmentally friendly refrigerants in air coolers will continue to grow. On a technical level, the development of mixed refrigerants is expected to balance safety and energy efficiency, further expanding the application scenarios of air coolers in high temperature and high humidity environments. It can be foreseen that environmentally friendly refrigerants will become the core support for the sustainable development of the air cooler industry.
