Mr Rajadhyaksha presented Godrej’s experience with converting directly from ozone depleting substances to hydrocarbons in air-conditioners. This was also the case back in 2000, when the producer converted its household refrigerator production to hydrocarbons, the first manufacturer in India to actually introduce hydrocarbons using a compressor developed by Highly and R290 refrigerant by Linde/BOC. Featuring an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 3.7, both the 3,375W and the 4,900W cooling capacity models achieve a 5 star rating performance in India. “We are already in 2016 with this product”, noted the speaker.
