WESTBURY, NY— The LeakFinder® SOLO-SHOT™ Single-Use Syringe Universal A/C Leak Detection Kit (LF040CS) provides quality leak detection for all automotive air conditioning systems using R-134a, R-1234yf, or other widely used refrigerants. This kit utilizes fluorescent leak detection dye technology to pinpoint the exact source of all system leaks. Once the dye is added to the system, it circulates throughout and then exits at all leaks sites. When the escaping dye is exposed to high-intensity light, it fluoresces brilliantly and identifies all system leaks.
Over the past few years, automotive manufacturers have shifted over to using modern A/C units that utilize R-1234yf refrigerant. R-1234yf refrigerant has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) Rating than its predecessor R-134a. Today, most automotive manufacturers have adopted these highly efficient, ultra-low impact refrigerant systems.
