About the analysis

Do you want to carry out a quality control of a refrigerant? Are you looking for a reliable place to test a substance used in a refrigeration or air conditioning system? Do you need a detailed analysis and a report specifying the parameters of a refrigerant or refrigeration oil? If so – the PROZON Foundation’s analytical laboratory will carry out the necessary tests for you.

What does the analytical laboratory do?

The PROZON analytical laboratory is engaged in assessing the quality of refrigerants. It is also possible to commission testing of refrigeration oils. The analysis covers primary refrigerant, refrigerant taken from an operating system, as well as regenerated refrigerant, verifying their compliance with AHRI standards. The analyses include, among others, assessment of moisture, acidity, composition, presence of non-condensable gases, and other contaminants. The results help assess refrigerant quality and diagnose possible irregularities in the operation of the refrigeration system.

Refrigeration oil testing allows for the assessment of the technical condition of the system and the suitability of the oil for further operation.

Refrigerant quality control

As part of refrigerant quality control, we check key parameters that confirm the purity of the substance and its compliance with the AHRI 700 standard:

  • we analyze moisture and acidity,
  • we check the composition – ensuring that the refrigerant has the correct proportions without unwanted admixtures,
  • we verify contamination – we analyze whether the refrigerant is free from harmful chlorine compounds, non-condensable gases, and solid or high-boiling residues such as oil.

The results of the analyses provide valuable information for verifying refrigerant quality and help in identifying possible system failures.

The test results do not provide definitive answers; however, they support service companies in efficiently identifying the source of irregularities.

The recommended option is a comprehensive test.

A comprehensive test covers all parameters and provides the most complete insight into refrigerant quality.

If the client has specific suspicions regarding the possible source of a failure, they may also choose a selected test to verify their assumptions.

Refrigeration oil testing

We also offer refrigeration oil analysis to assess the condition of the compressor and the overall technical state of the system. During the analysis, we examine key oil properties:

  • acid number – using potentiometric titration,
  • moisture content – using coulometric method,
  • kinematic viscosity – using viscometric method,
  • elemental analysis – using atomic emission spectroscopy.

The test results do not provide definitive answers; however, they support service companies in efficiently identifying the source of irregularities.

When should you request a test?

Regular testing of refrigeration oil and refrigerants in our analytical laboratory is extremely important for monitoring the condition of substances used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. There are many reasons to request a test – and they vary depending on the selected analysis:

  • refrigerant quality control – to detect irregularities in the operation of air conditioning or refrigeration systems, as well as to analyze regenerated refrigerant before its reuse,
  • refrigeration oil testing – in case of system failure to identify its causes, before oil replacement to determine its current condition, and to assess filter efficiency.

Early diagnostics help avoid costly repairs and ensure a longer service life of the refrigeration system. Take advantage of the PROZON Foundation’s analytical laboratory services today – gain confidence that your refrigerant meets quality standards and your oil maintains proper properties.
