Advice on the safe application of natural refrigerants - hydrocarbons

Hydrocarbons are naturally good refrigerants – buttheir potential flammability imposes additional design and safe handling requirements.
They can be safely used for many applications with benefits in performance and reliability coupled with reduced environmental impact – we can show you how.


hydrocarbon safety We have worked with a number of end users, manufacturers and contractors, helping them safely apply and use hydrocarbon refrigerants in equipment ranging from ice makers and integral cabinets to chillers.

We can:

  • Advise on the safe design of systems, to comply with EN378 and other relevant standards;
  • Help you source suitable components;
  • Advise on simple and practical modifications to your factory so you can handle HCs safely during manufacture;
  • Advise on the location of HC equipment ››
  • Provide training for engineers who design, manufacture, install and service hydrocarbon refrigerant equipment.
