A key feature of Opteon™ 454B is its 78% lower GWP (466), with improved efficiency and matching capacity to R410A, that enables OEMs to transition their R410A equipment to a lower GWP alternative conveniently. Opteon™ XL41 closely matches the performance of R410A and in some cases, provides superior capacity and efficiency. Additionally, Opteon™ XL41 has a GWP of 466 (a 78% reduction vs. R410A). A low temperature glide with easy top off after leaks and miscibility with polyolester (POE) lubricants.
