An order cabinet uses an R406 compressor, can it be replaced by an R600 compressor 5

Theoretically, it can be replaced, but it can cause a lot of problems.

First of all, please make sure that you have made a mistake in the name of your refrigerant? It should be R406A, which is a mixture of R22 600A and 142B.

Non-azeotropic refrigerant mixtures. Replace with R600, instead of R600A?

The following is the theoretical thermodynamic calculation process of the three refrigerants, assuming a theoretical cycle, a high-temperature heat source of 40 and a low-temperature heat source of -20

The cooling capacity per unit volume is: R406A:; r600：；r600a：；

From the calculation results, it can be seen that the cooling capacity per unit volume varies greatly, and if it is necessary to maintain the same capacity, 1If R600 is used instead, the displacement of the compressor needs to be reduced by about 42% compared to R406A;

2.If R600A is used instead, the displacement of the compressor needs to be increased by about 40% compared to R406A;

If the displacement changes, the volume of the compressor will change, and the installation size, piping size, vibration and noise reduction need to be reconsidered;

Due to the different exhaust pressure, the corresponding system design needs to be changed, if the R600A is used, it is necessary to see whether the system pressure is appropriate;

In addition, R600A and R600 are hydrocarbons and are explosive, so it is necessary to pay attention to explosion-proof;

There are many more problems like this, which need to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis;

In short, replacement is theoretically achievable, but the whole system needs to be redesigned, and there are many factors to consider, so you need to be careful!

Hello Kiss now answers this question for you. Pro, the R290 compressor cannot be replaced with the R600 compressor. R290 and R600 generally refer to two different refrigerants.

R290 is a refrigerant called propane, which is a halogenated hydrocarbon greenhouse gas; R600 is a refrigerant called butane, which is also a halogenated hydrocarbon, but it is relatively safer. They are used for different compressor types, so they cannot be replaced directly. The structure of compressors with different refrigerants is different and cannot be mixed, so it is necessary to choose the appropriate refrigerant to use according to the actual situation.

In addition, the greenhouse effect of halogenated hydrocarbon refrigerants needs to be considered and their environmental impact needs to be reduced through proper maintenance and use.

Summary. Hello dear, according to your description, this is not possible, the R134A compressor cannot be replaced by the R600A compressor. The type of refrigerant oil used in the compressors of these two refrigerants is the same or very close, but the operating pressure range of the two refrigerants is different, and if it is to be replaced, the throttling element must be replaced at the same time, and if necessary, the evaporator and condenser must be replaced to achieve the optimal cooling capacity of the refrigeration system.

Replace the R600A compressor with the R134 compressor?

Hello dear, according to your description, this is not possible, the R134A compressor cannot be replaced by the R600A compressor.

Anyway, they can't renew each other, including the compressor of the R12?

Hello dear, yes, that's true.

Some say that the compressor or refrigerant of 600 and 134 can be interchangeable, right?

Hello dear, this is also not possible, not interchangeable. The key physical parameters of R134A and R600A refrigerants are too different, and the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator will be seriously deteriorated after being replaced at will. And R600A is a flammable and explosive refrigerant, which has certain explosion-proof requirements for key components such as compressors, and the key components are special.

OK. After the substitution, R134 should be added, not R600.

The commonly used refrigerants for refrigerators are R12, R134, R600, R152 and R22 azeotropic.

The commonly used refrigerant for air conditioners is R22, and the new refrigerant is R404.

Refrigerator repairs can be replaced with R12; When the R134 system is replaced, the compressor system must be replaced, mainly because of the difference between refrigeration oil, so the pipeline should be cleaned.

Hello, can the 600 compressor replace the 134 compressor?

The 134A system has stricter cleanliness requirements and is not very good.

No! Both refrigeration oils are not the same, and the structure is also different.

If you change to an R134A compressor and use an R134A, yes, the perfusion volume is more than that of the R600A.

It can be replaced, and R134 should be added after substitution, and R600 cannot be added

Hello, dear, I am happy to answer for you: can the R290 compressor be replaced by the R600 compressor? The rolling sedan R290 is suitable for the R600 compressor.

The R600 compressor is widely used in refrigerators and freezers, and the R600 can also be used for the R12 and 134 compressors that left the factory in the early days. The R600 compressor has a low cost, low sound, and a longer compressor life than the 12 and 134 when operated properly, which can also save customers some electricity bills. Let the R600 compressor rarely break without water ingress, so the R600 compressor cannot be used for suppression.

The filter must be changed.

Summary. Hello, it's a pleasure to serve you! The R600A compressor should not be replaced by the R134 compressor, the two are not suitable, and forced installation will damage the circuit or damage the compressor.

Reason: The type of refrigeration oil used in the compressors of these two refrigerants is the same or very close, but the working pressure range of the two refrigerants is different, if you want to replace it, you need to replace the throttling element at the same time, and if necessary, replace the evaporator and condenser, so that the refrigeration and cooling capacity of the refrigeration system can reach the best state.

Therefore, the compressor of R600A can not be replaced by the compressor of R134, I hope mine will be helpful to you, and finally I wish you a happy life and smooth work<>
