SPECIFICATIONS:
- Product Name: Tracerline 8oz BIGEZ Universal A/C Dye Cartridge
- Part Number: LF1800CS
- Volume: 8 oz (237 ml)
- Compatibility: R-1234yf, R-134a, and other commonly used refrigerants. Safe for EV/Hybrid systems.
- Service Capacity: Services up to 64 vehicles per cartridge.
- Includes: One 8 oz BIGEZ Universal A/C Dye Cartridge (LF1800CS) in full-color, hanging clamshell packaging.
HOW TO USE:
- Prepare the System: Ensure the A/C system is slightly pressurized before injecting the dye. If the system is completely empty, it may need a slight charge of refrigerant to circulate the dye.
- Load the Cartridge: Insert the Tracerline 8oz BIGEZ Universal A/C Dye Cartridge (LF1800CS) into a compatible caulking gun-style dye injector.
- Connect to System: Connect the dye injector hose to the A/C system's low-side service port.
- Inject Dye: Squeeze the trigger of the caulking gun to inject the appropriate amount of dye into the A/C system. Refer to system specifications for the recommended dye amount, though one full cartridge services 64 vehicles.
- Circulate Dye: Run the vehicle's A/C system for at least 15-20 minutes to allow the dye to thoroughly mix with the refrigerant and circulate throughout the entire system.
- Inspect for Leaks: Using a UV leak detection flashlight, thoroughly inspect all A/C components, including hoses, fittings, compressor, condenser, evaporator, and dryer. Leaks will appear as a bright green glow where the dye has escaped.
- Clean Up: After use, disconnect the injector and clean any excess dye from the service port area.
