I think that it's olive oil, but I/m not sure
No
The oil used to lubricate the compressor is cycled with the refrigerant.
ester oil
no. it is not a good idea. new hfc refrigerants require a different type of oil than the R22 units. the new refrigerants typically run at higher pressures than the R22 units.
There are different types of refrigerant oils. Refrigerants such as R22 and R12 usually use mineral oil. But some of blended refrigerants like R410A can sometimes use a poly oil. These oils can not be blended together. So a system that already has a refrigerant with mineral oil must be charged with refrigerants with the same oil.
refrigerant oil has to do with A/C and is is R134A bit motor oil is 5w30 all year
Look for a label on the underside of the hood, around the radiator crossover, or the compressor. The label will tell you the type and quantity of refrigerant, and also the type of refrigerant oil used in the system.
easy being an open drive unit use ester rl 68 oil for r134a refrigerant or es32 mineral oil for r12 refrigerant.
R-12 freon and 500 viscosity oil.........
No. R12 systems are designed for R12. The lubricating oil for 134a is synthetic and will attack the o-rings in a R12 system. I think the operating pressures are also different.Samething is now happening to residential ACs. R22 is out and 410 is in.They are not compatible.SOL
The refrigerant type that goes into a 2003 Toyota Tacoma is R134a. Its capacity is 16 ounces. The oil capacity, on the other hand, is 7 ounces of PAG 46.
An R22 coil will work properly with R410A only ifseveral conditions are met.First, the manufacturer of the coil must specify that it will work with both refrigerants. R410A systems operate at about 40 to 70 % higher pressure than R22 systems.Second, the new coil must be equipped with an inlet control (either a thermal expansion valve or orifice) that is intended for R410A. The new coil may not use a capillary tube metering system to control refrigerant flow into the evaporator coils.Third, the tonnage, or Btu capacity, of the coil and control device, and the EER/SEER of the coil must match those same ratings for the condensing unit.Fourth, if the new coil has been used in an R22 system, it must be thoroughly flushed clean of oil, and must be refitted with the proper control valving for R410A.
