The R404A range is a substitute for CFC R502, with physical and thermodynamic properties comparable to R502. Kirby's product information also identifies R404A for retrofitting existing R502 installations. Refrigerant must be charged from the liquid phase, and compressors must use polyol ester oils.
Kirby supplies Gas2Go R404A in three cylinder sizes:
