Daikin Air-conditioning India
Pvt Ltd, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Daikin
Industries Ltd, Japan recently
announced the launch of air conditioning
equipment using next
generation refrigerant HFC32
manufactured at its Neemrana plant
based in Rajasthan. Daikin has taken
this pioneering step to mitigate the
environmental impact from
refrigerants, the company said in a
release.
With its pioneering initiatives,
Daikin India is ready with HFC32
based products bearing only one third
of the global warming potential
(GWP) when compared to R410A &
R22 refrigerants. Daikin India
considers that HFC32 to be suitable
for split air conditioners and heat
pumps and as an excellent alternative
to replace R410A in terms of
performance. Starting with HFC32
adoption across the residential air
conditioners launched in India, it
aims to expand use of HFC32 for
commercial air conditioning
equipment in the future.
The company intends to provide
technical information for the
widespread use of HFC32 to meet the
demands of each region across India
as much as possible. Daikin will
continue to contribute to the
prevention of global warming in the
future by promoting the widespread
use of the refrigerant.
