I have an ice machine that uses R12.I have found a productm called Hotshot i think its 414B works well
OEM refrigerant which came installed in 1993 was Freon R12. I suggest you convert it to R134a if it has not already been converted. R12 is far to expensive.
Would have been built for R12, can be converted to R134a.
It came with R12 (Freon). Look for a sticker on the unit, as it may have been converted. If not convert it to R134a. My advice, is, take it to a professional.
Unless your system has been convert to take R-134a you would need 25oz of R-12. If your system has been convert to R-134a you would use 20oz to 21.25oz of R-134a.
It depends on the year of the truck. The old type of freon was phased out. If its an older truck it would have been R-12. But R-12 is not avalible, you will have to convert it to R-134a. Newer trucks are R-134a.
Unless it has been converted over to R134 it came with R12. I suggest you convert it to R134a. R12 is very expensive.
It contains no R12 Freon. Freon has not been used for years.
Freon is DuPont's trade name. There are 2 types of Freon, Freon-11 is trichlorofluoromethane, while Freon-12 is dichlorodifluoromethane. All types of Freon have been banned from production since 1996. Refrigerants are manmade compounds not Elements
Freon (R12) has not been installed or produced since 1995.
Freon (R12) has not been installed in any vehicle since 1995.
The original refrigerant installed at the factory in 1973 was R12 (Freon). If it has not been converted to R134a, I suggest you convert it now, if it is leaking and needs repair. R12 is no longer in production and the dwindling supply is very expensive. Much cheaper to convert it to R134a.
There is only one type of freon, but before we go further, freon has been banned due to it's hazardousness to the environment.
