The selection of refrigerant is a critical factor in the performance of high and low temperature impact test chambers. However, choosing the right refrigerant involves more than just technical considerations—it’s also a complex economic decision. Refrigerants are consumables, often expensive, and after several years of operation, their efficiency may decline, leading to reduced cooling performance. Therefore, it's essential to conduct a thorough technical evaluation based on the specific conditions of the equipment. It's always recommended to consult the original manufacturer for refilling to ensure compatibility and safety.
Here are some key tips for selecting the right refrigerant for high and low temperature impact test chambers, as provided by the Dongguan Ai Siwei Technology Department:
1. **Environmental Compliance**: The refrigerant used in high and low temperature impact test chambers must meet national environmental standards. For example, the test chambers manufactured by Dongguan Ai Siwei Test Equipment Co., Ltd. use R404A and R23, which are environmentally friendly and widely accepted in the industry.
2. **Safety and Compatibility**: The properties of the refrigerant should be non-toxic, non-flammable, and non-explosive. It should have good heat transfer characteristics and minimal resistance. Additionally, it must be compatible with the materials used in the refrigeration system. In industries with strict regulations, it's crucial to use safe and non-polluting refrigerants that ensure both performance and user safety.
3. **Compressor Compatibility**: Different types of compressors operate based on varying principles. For example, rotary compressors increase pressure by reducing the volume of refrigerant vapor. In such cases, refrigerants with high volumetric capacity, like R134a or R22, are typically chosen. Modern test chambers, such as those from Dongguan Ai Sihao Test Equipment Co., Ltd., use advanced compressors like the fully enclosed French Taikang 1.5HP × 2 × 1 group, which enables cascade refrigeration for more accurate and efficient low-temperature testing.
4. **Cooling Temperature Requirements**: The choice of refrigerant also depends on the required cooling temperature. Refrigerants can be classified into high-temperature (low-pressure), medium-temperature (medium-pressure), and low-temperature (high-pressure) categories. The standard evaporation temperature of the selected refrigerant should be about 10°C below the desired cooling temperature. Additionally, factors like the operating environment and condensing pressure must be considered to ensure safe and efficient operation.
In comparison, automotive air conditioning systems have different requirements because they rely on ambient air as a cooling medium, making them subject to variable conditions such as wind speed, solar radiation, and heat exposure. As a result, they typically use high-temperature (low-pressure) refrigerants like R134a today, replacing older options like R12.
