ACID-TEST is an essential product to locate the presence and the formation of acid inside vehicle A/C Systems. The use of ACID-TEST is a very important step in regular preventative maintenance and provides a fast and accurate method to detect the presence of acid in compressor oils.
The acidity of a system is generally caused by the natural decomposition of gases and lubricants in it; these derivatives can react to the presence of humidity, generating organic, carbonic, hydrochloric, hydrofluoric acids.
This kind of acids have a very high aggressiveness toward metals: that is the cause of many leaks or of the break of the compressor in the most dangerous cases.
The system does not signal the level of acidity. A lubricant colour change is noticeable just in some dangerous cases: this is due to the presence of oxidized metal in it.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
ACID-TEST contains chemical ingredients that react when in contact with acidity, changing their colour and indicating the nominal pH level of compressor oil.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Pick up a small quantity (mL) of lubricant from the system.
Pour 2 mL of POE or 4 mL of any other lubricant in a container.
Tighten the cap securely and shake the content of the container energetically for some seconds.
Watch the change of the colour:
– if purple or blue – the lubricant has a low level of acidity. No intervention needed
– if green – the lubricant has a medium level of acidity. An intervention is required to correct the conditions of the system.
– if yellow – the lubricant has a high level of acidity. A strong correction is required and even a general check-up is, in order to solve other possible problems.
FEATURES:
- Works with all lubricants (POE – ABZ- Pao – PAG – PVE – Mineral)
- Accurate results in seconds.
- Easy to use
- Biodegradable
- Non-flammable
- Non-toxic
- Non-hazardous
- Inexpensive (especially compared to laboratory acid tests)
- The plastic box contains 4 tests
