The Freon loop double containment design for Spacelab refrigerator/freezer to protect environmentGeneral Electric is building a vapor compression refrigerator/freezer for NASA-Johnson Space Center for the Spacelab mission SLS-1 for life sciences experiments. Freon R502 is used as refrigerant. As R502 is considered toxic, the whole Freon loop is enclosed in a second containment to avoid exposure to crewmen. A detailed description of the design and construction of the safety enclosure is presented.
