Description
R-454B Refrigerant (Opteon™ XL41)
R-454B is a next-generation, low-GWP A2L refrigerant designed as a direct replacement for R-410A in new air conditioning and heat pump systems. It offers comparable performance with dramatically lower environmental impact.
Key Benefits
- ✅Ultra-Low GWP Alternative
GWP of 466 — reduces climate impact by nearly 80% compared to R-410A (GWP ~2,088). - ✅High Efficiency & Low Emissions
Maintains similar cooling capacity and energy efficiency to R-410A while significantly lowering environmental impact. - ✅Mildly Flammable (A2L)
Non-toxic and classified as A2L, allowing safe use in properly designed modern systems. - ✅Future-Ready Choice
Compliant with evolving global regulations including F-Gas and AIM Act restrictions on high-GWP refrigerants.
Specifications
- • Composition: R-32 (68.9%) + R-1234yf (31.1%)

- • Global Warming Potential (GWP): 466
- • Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP): 0
- • ASHRAE Safety Class: A2L (Mildly flammable, low toxicity)
Applications
- ✅ Residential & Commercial HVAC – Split systems, rooftops, VRF, and packaged units
- ✅ Heat Pumps – High-efficiency heating and cooling solutions
- ✅ Chillers – New low-GWP system designs
Packaging & Storage
- • Net Weight: 20 lb (10 kg)
- • Cylinder: Disposable steel tank
- • Storage: Store upright, away from flames and direct sunlight. Maximum temperature: 52°C (125°F)
- • Handling Note: Requires A2L-compatible service equipment and trained technicians
Important Note: R-454B is designed for new equipment only and is not suitable for retrofitting existing R-410A systems. It must be used in systems specifically engineered for A2L refrigerants.
