Product Overview
R125a, also known as Pentafluoroethane, is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant widely used in industrial and commercial applications. It is a key component in many popular refrigerant blends, such as R404A, R407C, R410A, and R507, making it essential for modern refrigeration and air conditioning systems. Additionally, R125a is used as a fire suppression agent in environments where water-based systems are not suitable.
Key Features
- Environmentally Friendly: R125a has an Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of 0, meaning it does not harm the ozone layer.
- High Performance: It is a critical component in high-efficiency refrigerant blends like R410A, which is widely used in air conditioning systems.
- Safe and Reliable: Classified as ASHRAE A1, R125a is non-flammable and non-toxic, making it safe for use in occupied spaces.
- Versatile Applications: R125a is used in refrigeration, air conditioning, and fire suppression systems, showcasing its adaptability across industries.
- Global Warming Potential (GWP): While R125a has a high GWP, it remains a transitional solution as industries move toward lower-GWP alternatives.

Applications
R125a is widely used in the following applications:
- Refrigeration: A key component in blended refrigerants like R404A and R410A, used in commercial refrigeration, supermarkets, and transport refrigeration.
- Air Conditioning: Integral to R410A, a common refrigerant in residential and commercial air conditioning systems.
- Fire Suppression: Used as a clean agent in fire suppression systems, particularly in environments with sensitive equipment, such as data centers, museums, and hospitals.
Packaging and Storage
R125a is typically packaged in reusable steel cylinders (400L, 800L, 1000L) or ISO-TANK containers. It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Proper handling and storage are essential to prevent leaks and ensure safety.
Environmental Impact
While R125a does not deplete the ozone layer, its high GWP has led to its inclusion in global phase-down initiatives. Industries are encouraged to transition to lower-GWP alternatives to mitigate climate change.
