Description
The Tracerline LeakFinder RELOAD Refillable Leak Detection Kit (LF180CS) offers a highly efficient and economical solution for identifying leaks in automotive A/C and fluid systems. Engineered for repeated use, this comprehensive kit centers around a durable, high-grade plastic syringe injector that allows technicians and DIY enthusiasts to draw the precise amount of universal fluorescent dye needed for each application. This design significantly reduces waste and provides exceptional value over time.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Economical and Reusable Design: The core of the RELOAD kit is its reusable syringe dye injector, eliminating the need for single-use cartridges. This design allows for drawing the exact amount of dye required, minimizing waste and significantly lowering long-term operational costs for leak detection.
- High-Capacity Dye Supply: Comes with a substantial 8 oz (237 ml) bottle of LeakFinder universal A/C dye, providing enough solution to service up to 32 vehicles. This ample supply ensures sustained use without frequent dye replenishment.
- Precise Leak Identification: The universal fluorescent dye, when illuminated by the included blue light LED flashlight, glows brightly at the site of a leak. This visual detection method allows for accurate pinpointing of leaks, including intermittent or tiny ones, ensuring thorough system repair.
- Built for Professional Environments: The RELOAD™ syringe is constructed from high-grade, durable plastic, making it robust enough to withstand the demands of a busy automotive repair shop, ensuring reliability and a long service life.
- Broad Compatibility: The included universal A/C dye is compatible with a wide range of refrigerants, including R-134a, making this kit versatile for various automotive applications. The R-134a hose/coupler ensures direct system connection.
SPECIFICATIONS:
- Included in Product When Purchased:
- LF20CS: A/C dye syringe injector (re-usable)
- LF1008: 8 oz (237 ml) bottle of LeakFinder® universal A/C dye
- LF400: LeakFinder® cordless, blue light LED leak detection flashlight
- LF30CS: R-134a hose/coupler and purge fitting
HOW TO USE:
- Prepare the System: Ensure the A/C system is off and depressurized if necessary, following manufacturer guidelines.
- Draw Dye: Connect the LF20CS reusable syringe injector to the LF1008 8 oz dye bottle. Draw the appropriate amount of LeakFinder universal A/C dye into the syringe for the system you are servicing (refer to vehicle-specific or dye instructions for dosage).
- Connect to A/C System: Attach the LF30CS R-134a hose/coupler to the low-side service port of the vehicle’s A/C system.
- Inject Dye: Slowly inject the fluorescent dye from the syringe into the A/C system. Once injected, disconnect the syringe and hose.
- Run System: Operate the A/C system for approximately 5–10 minutes to allow the dye to circulate throughout the system and penetrate any leak points.
- Scan for Leaks: Turn off the A/C system. Use the LF400 LeakFinder cordless, blue light LED flashlight to scan all components of the A/C system. Look for a bright fluorescent glow, which indicates a leak.
- Repair and Verify: Once a leak is identified and repaired, run the A/C system again and re-scan with the flashlight to confirm the leak has been sealed.
