Split Air-Conditioner Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : EL-RACLE-12810
Jlab Export is a leading Split Air-Conditioner Manufacturer,and suppliers in India
Propane, sold as refrigerant R-290, fills the circuit of this split air conditioner. It is an 18,000 BTU home unit with a rotary compressor, built for a single-phase 220–240 V, 50 Hz supply. As R-290 is flammable, the unit suits teaching the extra care that hydrocarbon systems need during installation and service.

Hydrocarbon Split AC Workshop Practice
Trainees install the indoor and outdoor units and make up the interconnecting lines. They form the flares with the Hydraulic Flaring And Swaging Tool Kit, then pressure test with nitrogen and evacuate the system. Gauge readings are taken on the Hydrocarbon Manifold Gauges, whose R-290 scale gives the saturation temperature for each pressure.
The service exercise follows the hydrocarbon routine. Students check the air around the unit with the Combustible Gas Detector and recover the charge with the Combustible Gas Recovery Machine. They purge the circuit with nitrogen before any brazing, then weigh fresh gas in from a cylinder of R-290 Refrigerant on the Wireless Refrigerant Charging Scale.
Frequently Asked Questions
What care does an R-290 split AC need during service?
R-290 is propane, a highly flammable A3 refrigerant. Work in a ventilated area, keep flames and sparks away and check the air with a gas detector. Recover the charge with a machine rated for flammable gases, and purge with nitrogen before brazing.
What makes the discharge pressure run too high?
A dirty condenser coil, a slow or failed outdoor fan, air or nitrogen left in the circuit, or too much refrigerant. With R-290 the charge is small and set by weight, so even a slight overcharge shows on the gauges. Clean the coil and check the fan before you change the charge.
Why is R-290 used in some split ACs?
Propane has a very low global warming potential and good thermodynamic properties, so it cools well on a small charge. The trade-off is its flammability, which limits the charge size and calls for careful service practice.
What kind of compressor does it have?
It has a rotary compressor, in which a roller turns inside a cylinder to squeeze the gas. Rotary compressors are compact and run quietly, which is why many home split units use them.
How does it differ from the inverter split unit?
Both are 18,000 BTU home units with rotary compressors. The other Split Air-Conditioner uses an HFC refrigerant, has a smart inverter and a four-way valve for heating, and comes with spare indoor and outdoor control boards.
