Frequently asked questions
What refrigerants does the Frascold C6-162A support?
The Frascold C6-162A is qualified for R717. The table above lists capacity at ultra-low, low, medium and high temperature duty for each refrigerant, with the evaporating and condensing temperature each value was calculated at. Those conditions differ by refrigerant, so read them per row.
What is the cooling capacity of the Frascold C6-162A?
Running on R717, the Frascold C6-162A delivers 75.56 kW at MT (-10 / 45 °C), 98.75 kW at HT (-5 / 45 °C). These are calculated cooling capacities at the rating basis the manufacturer declares with its data, not measured values. Use the Benchmark tool to evaluate capacity at your exact SST/SDT and superheat conditions.
