# Refrigerant Pressure-Temperature Lookup (R-22 / R-410A / R-134a)

Saturated pressure ↔ temperature lookup for common HVAC refrigerants via the Antoine fit ln(P) = A − B/(T_C + C): R-22 (HCFC-22), R-134a (HFC-134a), and R-410A (R-32/R-125 near-azeotropic blend). Coefficients fitted against the ASHRAE Handbook / NIST REFPROP saturation tables. Two modes: solve saturation pressure from temperature, or solve saturation temperature from pressure. Pressure may be absolute or gauge (atmospheric default 1.01325 bar) in bar/MPa/kPa/PSI; temperature in °C/K/°F. Engineering estimate only — does not replace the manufacturer's P-T chart.

## Overview

Use this refrigerant pressure-temperature lookup to estimate saturated pressure from temperature or saturated temperature from pressure for R-22, R-134a, and R-410A. Select absolute or gauge pressure and common temperature and pressure units for an engineering estimate.

## Inputs

- **Refrigerant** (select): Refrigerant. Coefficients fitted against ASHRAE/NIST saturation tables.
- **Input Type** (select): Solve saturation pressure from temperature, or saturation temperature from pressure.
- **Temperature** (number): Saturation temperature, in the selected Temperature Unit. Used when Input Type = pressure from temperature.
- **Temperature Unit** (select)
- **Pressure** (number): Saturation pressure, in the selected Pressure Unit. Used when Input Type = temperature from pressure.
- **Pressure Form** (select)
- **Pressure Unit** (select)
- **Atmospheric Pressure** (number): Local atmospheric pressure in bar (0.5–1.5). Used to convert gauge ↔ absolute. Default 1.01325 bar (sea level).
- **Decimal Places** (number)

## When to use

- Estimate saturation pressure for a known evaporating or condensing temperature.
- Estimate saturation temperature from a measured refrigerant pressure.
- Convert refrigerant pressure readings between gauge and absolute values using atmospheric pressure.

## How it works

- Select R-22, R-134a, or R-410A.
- Choose whether to solve pressure from temperature or temperature from pressure.
- Enter the value and select the temperature, pressure form, and pressure units.
- The calculator applies an Antoine fit and returns the saturation result with converted pressure or temperature values.

## Use cases

- Check expected evaporating or condensing pressure during HVAC service calculations.
- Estimate saturation temperature from a gauge reading taken in PSI or another supported pressure unit.
- Compare refrigerant pressure-temperature conditions using consistent absolute or gauge pressure values.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which refrigerants are supported?

The tool supports R-22, R-134a, and R-410A.

### Can I calculate pressure from temperature?

Yes. Select "Solve pressure from temperature," then enter a temperature in °C, K, or °F.

### Can I calculate temperature from pressure?

Yes. Select "Solve temperature from pressure," then enter pressure in bar, MPa, kPa, or PSI.

### What is the difference between absolute and gauge pressure?

Absolute pressure is referenced to a vacuum. Gauge pressure is referenced to local atmospheric pressure, which defaults to 1.01325 bar.

### Is this a replacement for a refrigerant P-T chart?

No. It provides an engineering estimate and does not replace the manufacturer's P-T chart.
