I noted that a fairly new Leica 1520 comes with 315 grams of R452A refrigerant. Does anyone know if this will be the norm - will all of the cryostat manufacturers be switching to this refrigerant, instead of R404A (which is about to be phased out)?
I did note that it does still use a Danfoss SC15G compressor (which now has a sticker on it saying "R452A"). And, unfortunately, it also still has the double e-valve.

Leica CM1520 cryostat. I am looking for the current part number for the expansion valve module. I was told that the e-valve module from the CM1850 would work, but Leica says that both part numbers I have for that have been discontinued, with no replacement. I have been unable to find a service manual or parts list for the 1520.

There are two solenoids behind the lower front panel (upper right) of the Leica CM1520 cryostat. One of the solenoids, I presume, is for the defrost circuit. Can anyone tell me what the second solenoid is for? Does anyone have a service manual or any service literature?
