Environment-friendly Alternative Refrigerant R410A Environment-friendly Alternative Refrigerant R410A • The refrigerant R410A has the property of higher operating pressure in comparison with R22. Therefore, all materials have the characteristics of higher resisting pressure than R22 ones and this character- istic should be also considered during the installation. R410A is an azeotrope of R32 and R125 mixed at 50:50, so the ozone depletion potential (ODP) of R410A is 0.
