  1. Refrigerant policy Tecumseh Embraces theTransition to Hydrocarbon Refrigerants

  2. Project scope • is a New Platform for AE / TP / TW Compressors • Today Tecumseh offers three fractional horsepower compressor platforms for LBP, MBP and HBP commercial refrigeration applications, they are the AE, TP and TW. • What AE2 will bring to Europe : • Best in Class Efficiency • Back to competitiveness • Innovation image i.e. Propane R290 • Targeted market : Soft-serve ice cream, Ice makers, Commercial freezers, • Bottle coolers , Display cases, Sanitary hot water… Compressors & CU

  3. Why Tecumseh has chosen R290 for commercial refrigeration? • It is an environmentally friendly refrigerant • Non Ozone depleting (Zero ODP) • Very low impact on global warming: • GWP=3, versus R404A= 3700, R134a=1200 • Non toxic • Reduced energy consumption: -5% to -10%versus R404A • It improves the reliability of refrigeration systems: • R290 is a pure refrigerant: not a mixture, no glide… • Lower discharge temperature/ R404A • It is an economical solution: • No major modification versus R404A refrigeration systems. • Natural refrigerant, highly available. • Flammability is manageable for small medium refrigeration appliances: • Safety issues can be easily overcome by the use of simple guidelines

  4. R290 versus other low GWP refrigerants • CO2 • CO2 requires important and costly modifications of refrigeration system. • Efficiency improvement is not always demonstrated, especially on small systems. • CO2 is not the good candidate for small and medium size refrigeration. However, it may be acceptable for large systems • R600a • R600a is also a good candidate. • However it’s smaller volumetric capacity, and higher pressure ratio, limits it to very small refrigeration capacity systems like domestic refrigerators and freezers.
