Panasonic will not accept any responsibility or liability what- soever if incorrect coolants are used.
Product Description Product Description Product Description In a circulation process, ambient heat is brought to a higher temperature level. An environmen- tally-compatible coolant passes through four steps: ● In the evaporator (1), the coolant boils and goes from the liquid phase to the gas- eous phase.
