R-407A

R-407A is a mixture of gasses used as a refrigerant.

It is a zeotropic blend of diuoromethane (HFC32), pentauoroethane (HFC-125) and 1,1,1,2tetrauoroethane (HFC-134a).[1] R-407A was developed
as a close match to R-22's capacities and ow rates,
making it well suited as an energy ecient retrot for
R-22 in medium and low temperature refrigeration
systems for supermarket and food storage applications,
but not for air conditioning systems or those with ooded
evaporators.[2] It must be used with synthetic oils.[3] Its
global warming potential is 2107[4]
