The Cool-Tech 34288 is fully compliant with SAE J2788 standards!  This is the way you recover refrigerant from a vehicle.  First you empty the oil drain bottle located on the right-hand side of the unit, if necessary, or make note of the current oil level.  Then you connect the high- and low-side hoses to the vehicle A/C […]

The MA55100 Electronic Leak Detector offers 3 sensitivity levels ( Low, Medium & High ).  The highest sensitivity levels will detect a 1/4 ounce leak per yard.  When turning on the MA55100, it will default to Medium level, which is the recommended setting to begin inspection.  To view the sensitivity level on the LED display, […]

The rapidly growing green movement around the world offers opportunity to shop owners.The Society of Automotive Engineers has set standards for automotive air conditioning for recovery/recycling/recharging mechanics tools and every unit sold today must conform to those rigorous standards.
Recovery, recycling, and recharging units now must recover 95% of air conditioning refrigerant, recharge to within an […]

Smaller shops have to be ready to service their customers to the same degree as larger shops in order to keep those customers and that’s the type of people that need professional mechanics tools that can deliver the goods but doesn’t cost as much as shop equipment that’s designed to run hour after hour and […]

The RO34970 AIR-VAC is a Venturi-type vacuum pump powered by compressed air and designed for mobile air conditioning service.  A constant air source of 75 PSI is required for pump operation. The RO34970 AIR-VAC has an air consumption of 4.2 SCFM and will pull a vacuum up to 29.7 inches of mercury at sea level.  […]

The RO15234 1.2 CFM Vacuum Pump has been factory tested and meets Robinair’s stringent quality standards.  The RO15234 is a high performance 1.2 CFM Vacuum Pump that will provide you with years of trouble-free service if you follow these instructions for operating and maintaining the pump.  The pump’s offset rotary vane design provides high efficiency […]

In response to the rapidly growing environmentally-conscious green movement, the Society of Automotive Engineers determined that new standards must be established for automotive air conditioning mechanics tools for recovery/recycling/recharging. After a few years of research they determined to reduce R-134a emissions by reducing leak points and technology in air conditioning equipment.
The result of their efforts […]

The RO16600 is an Electronic Leak Detector used to detect refrigerant leaks in air conditioning and refrigeration systems.  It features a sensitivity selection switch which allows it to be used with CFC’s and HCFC’s at one setting and HFC’s at the other.  The RO16600 Electronic Leak Detector is able to detect leaks smaller than 1/2 ounce per […]

The RO16910 Cool-Tech ID Plus Refrigerant Identifier provides the user with a complete A/C Diagnostic Tool to identify refrigerant mixtures, and rid the mixtures of air contamination, all housed in a portable, rugged carrying case.  The RO16910 Cool-Tech ID Plus Refrigerant Identifier is housed in a rugged, hand-held, injection-molded nylon case.  The case houses the […]

Contamination of refrigerant in air conditioning systems or storage cylinders can lead to component corrosion, component destruction, elevated system head pressure, and system failures when used by unsuspecting technicians.  The ability of a technician to determine refrigerant type and purity is severely hampered by the presence of air when attempting to use pressure-temperature relationships.  The […]
