What the source says

( 12 ) Industrial process refrigeration products, other than chillers, as follows: ( i ) Effective January 1, 2026, products with a refrigerant charge capacity of 200 pounds or greater and with the refrigerant temperature entering the evaporator higher than −30 °C (−22 °F) using a regulated substance, or a blend containing a regulated substance, with a global warming potential of 150 or greater; ( ii ) Effective January 1, 2026, products with a refrigerant charge capacity less than 200 pounds and with the refrigerant temperature entering the evaporator higher than −30 °C (−22 °F), using a regulated substance, or a blend containing a regulated substance, with a global warming potential of 300 or greater; ( iii ) Effective January 1, 2028, where the temperature of the refrigerant entering the evaporator is greater than or equal to −50 °C (−58 °F) and is less than or equal to −30 °C (−22 °F), using a regulated substance, or a blend containing a regulated substance, with a global warming potential of 700 or greater; ( iv ) Products subject to <https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-40/section-84.54#p-84.54(a)(12)(ii)> paragraph (a)(12)(ii) or <https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-40/section-84.54#p-84.54(a)(12)(iii)> (iii) of this section with a refrigerant charge capacity of 100 pounds or less that are used in the manufacture of semiconductors must comply with the restrictions of <https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-40/section-84.54#p-84.54(a)(12)(ii)> paragraph (a)(12)(ii) or <https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-40/section-84.54#p-84.54(a)(12)(iii)> (iii) of this section by January 1, 2030; and
