Inject into the system and use a UV lamp to find refrigerant leaks that are impossible to locate by pressure testing alone. The dye circulates with the refrigerant and oil, glowing bright yellow-green wherever a leak is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multi-purpose fluorescent UV dye\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e All refrigerant types — R134a, R410A, R404A, R22, R1234yf, R407C, R32, and others\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOil compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e POE, PAG, mineral oil, alkylbenzene\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e HVAC and automotive AC systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen to Use UV Dye\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlow or intermittent leaks\u003c\/strong\u003e — Leaks too small to find by pressure testing or electronic detection alone\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-repair verification\u003c\/strong\u003e — Confirm a repair is sealed before returning equipment to service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRepeat callback investigation\u003c\/strong\u003e — When a system keeps losing charge and you can't find the source\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreventive injection\u003c\/strong\u003e — Inject dye during a recharge so any future leak is immediately identifiable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTotal Dye vs. Green UV Dye\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTotal Dye (this product)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Multi-purpose; works with all refrigerant and oil types; ideal when you service a wide variety of equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/uv-dye-green-8oz\"\u003eU\/V Dye Green\u003c\/a\u003e — Specifically formulated for automotive AC with R134a and PAG oil; 8oz treats up to 32 vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes UV dye damage refrigerant systems?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. UV dyes designed for refrigeration use are chemically inert and compatible with system materials.
