In recent years, identification of low GWP refrigerants has intensified due to environmental concerns. The refrigerant transitions involve technical challenges related to lubricant selection. Deploying a new refrigerant into an existing system requires close scrutiny due to several interconnected parameters. Those parameters include system chemistry and properties related to the wear between moving surfaces, which directly relate to the reliability and durability of compressor systems. This seminar covers the history of refrigerants and lubricants, a review of the process for matching refrigerants and lubricants, and a case study on wear performance of R410A alternatives in a compressor system.
