Key Features & Specifications
Chemical Composition & Global Warming Potential (GWP)
R1234YF (2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene) is a HFO-based refrigerant boasting a low GWP of approximately 4, compared to GWP 1,430 for R134a. It has zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP), fully aligning with regulatory standards such as the Kigali Amendment and EU F-Gas regulations.
Ultra-Low Global Warming Potential
With a GWP of ~4, R1234YF drastically cuts greenhouse gas emissions versus traditional HFCs.
Exceptional Energy Efficiency
Superior heat transfer allows automotive and industrial systems to operate with up to 8% reduced energy consumption.
Zero Ozone Depletion Potential
Fully ODP-free, meeting all current environmental regulations (Montreal Protocol, Kigali Amendment, EU F-Gas).
Direct Retrofit for R134a Systems
Many existing R134a automotive systems and industrial units can adopt R1234YF with minimal component modifications.
Enhanced Cooling Capacity
High volumetric cooling capacity means smaller charge amounts—typically 15% less refrigerant mass compared to R134a.
Safe A2L Classification
Mildly flammable (A2L) with strict handling guidelines, reducing risks compared to A3 refrigerants.

Applications & Use Cases
Automotive Air Conditioning
Automotive manufacturers and service centers are transitioning to R1234YF to meet stringent emissions targets while maintaining cabin comfort. Common uses include:
– OEM installations in new passenger and commercial vehicles
– Retrofit services for R134a A/C systems (minor hardware updates)
– Mobile service platforms for A/C recharging and maintenance
Industrial & Commercial Refrigeration
R1234YF excels in industrial settings:
– Light industrial chillers for food processing and cold storage
– Commercial refrigeration in supermarkets and convenience stores
– Cold rooms and display cases requiring consistent low-temperature performance
Saturation Pressure & Boiling Point
– Boiling Point (at 1 atm): –29.5 °C
– Evaporation Pressure (0 °C): 1.0 bar (gauge)
– Condensing Pressure (50 °C): 10.0 bar (gauge)
These thermodynamic parameters offer efficient heat transfer and stable operation across variable ambient conditions.
Flammability Classification & Precautions
R1234YF is classified A2L (lower flammability, mildly flammable):
- Avoid sources of ignition near release points.
- Use approved leak detection equipment for A2L refrigerants.
- Ensure adequate ventilation when servicing.
- Wear protective eyewear and gloves.
