What is an R-32 PT chart?

An R-32 PT chart lists the pressure R-32 boils and condenses at for each temperature. At 40°F that's 121.0 psig, a little higher than R-410A's 118.4. R-32 is a single-component refrigerant, so there's one pressure for each temperature, and it's sold as Forane 32, Genetron 32 and Klea 32.

Anywhere liquid and vapor are together in a system, like inside the evaporator and condenser coils, the pressure and temperature are locked together, so one tells you the other. On the job, the chart turns gauge readings into saturation temperatures: the suction pressure gives the temperature the evaporator is boiling at, and the liquid line pressure gives the temperature the condenser is condensing at. Compare those with your line temperatures and you have superheat and subcooling.

R-32 is a single-component refrigerant with a lower global warming potential than R-410A, and it's one of the two main refrigerants replacing R-410A in new home systems. It's also an ingredient in both R-410A and R-454B. It's mildly flammable (safety class A2L), so check that your recovery machine and leak detector are rated for A2L refrigerants.

How it's calculated

Absolute pressure = gauge pressure + 14.696 psi (101.325 kPa, one standard atmosphere)
Saturation data: R-32: CoolProp 8.0.0, R32
Between table points (every 0.5 °C): ln(pressure) is interpolated linearly in 1 ÷ absolute temperature
Printed chart rows are solved by CoolProp at each exact temperature

Questions

What is the R-32 pressure at 40°F?

R-32's saturation pressure at 40°F is 121.0 psig. At 100°F it's 325.7 psig.

How does R-32 compare to R-410A?

R-32 runs a little higher: 121.0 psig at 40°F against 118.4 psig for R-410A vapor, and 325.7 psig at 100°F against 317.6. R-32 is an A2L (mildly flammable) refrigerant, so it's only for equipment designed for it.

Why is there only one pressure column?

R-32 is a single compound, not a blend, so it has no glide: it boils and condenses at one temperature for a given pressure. The same saturation temperature is used for superheat and subcooling.
