Tracerline EZ-Shot Dye Injection Kit (TP9790-BX)

The Tracerline EZ-Shot Dye Injection Kit (TP9790-BX) is a complete solution designed for precise and efficient detection of leaks in automotive air conditioning (A/C) systems. This professional-grade kit allows you to quickly introduce fluorescent dye into the A/C system, making even the smallest leaks visible under a UV light. It’s an essential tool for automotive technicians and DIY enthusiasts looking to accurately diagnose and repair A/C refrigerant leaks.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Universal A/C System Compatibility: The included universal/ester dye is compatible with both R-134a and R-1234yf refrigerant systems, ensuring versatility across a wide range of modern and older vehicles. This eliminates the need for multiple dye types.
• Efficient Dye Injection: The EZ-Shot caulking gun-style injector assembly provides a quick and straightforward method for injecting the dye, allowing for fast system charging and minimal downtime.
• High-Capacity Dye Cartridge: The 8 oz (237 ml) BigEZ™ dye cartridge can service up to 64 vehicles, offering a cost-effective solution for frequent use and reducing the need for constant cartridge replacement.
• Visible Leak Detection: Once the dye is circulated, it escapes with the refrigerant at the leak point, glowing brightly under a UV light. This makes it easy to pinpoint the exact location of the leak, saving time and effort in diagnosis.
• Long-Lasting Dye Formula: The fluorescent dye is formulated to remain safely within the A/C system after injection, providing continuous leak detection capability for future issues or as a preventative measure after repairs are completed.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Product Capacity: 8 oz (237 ml)
• Included in Product:
• TP9770-8 8 oz (237 ml) BigEZ™ Universal/Ester cartridge
• TP9749 EZ-Shot™ caulking gun-style dye injector assembly
• TP11 R-134a hose/coupler with BigEZ™ adapter & purge fitting
• TP9831 R-1234yf adapter

HOW TO USE:

1. Prepare the System: Ensure the vehicle's A/C system is properly charged or has sufficient refrigerant for the dye to circulate.
2. Connect the Injector: Screw the 8 oz BigEZ™ Universal/Ester dye cartridge (TP9770-8) securely into the EZ-Shot™ caulking gun-style dye injector assembly (TP9749).
3. Attach Hose: Depending on the vehicle's refrigerant type, attach either the TP11 R-134a hose/coupler or the TP9831 R-1234yf adapter to the injector.
4. Connect to A/C Port: Connect the appropriate hose/coupler or adapter to the low-side service port of the vehicle's A/C system.
5. Purge Air (R-134a hose only): If using the R-134a hose (TP11), briefly press the purge fitting to release any air from the hose before injecting the dye into the system.
6. Inject Dye: Squeeze the trigger of the EZ-Shot™ injector to introduce the desired amount of fluorescent dye into the A/C system. Follow the vehicle manufacturer's guidelines for dye quantities, if available.
7. Circulate Dye: Run the vehicle's A/C system for approximately 5-10 minutes to allow the dye to thoroughly circulate with the refrigerant and oil.
8. Inspect for Leaks: Using a separate UV leak detection lamp (not included), scan all A/C components, hoses, and fittings. Any glowing areas indicate a leak.
