I was working with another guy at work to remove a broken older style cooler, and found that it was actually a split system, and the pipes went through the floor to the condensing unit, so they sent me to find the condensing unit and after finding a cramped storage room I found this on the floor under some other things. "you care if I take this" "yea I don't need it" :woot: The tank is at least 1/2 full, Mr. Repairman must've left something behind :D

-35°C.... is it for mineraloil or POE? Really nice finding! Would work good in water chillers if you ask me. There you don't need such a low boiling point...

and just to check r409a should be liquid charged correct? since it contains a mixture of gasses
