It is absolutly the same r134a Is r134a no matter how u look at it. But be careful the stopleaks and oring conditioner in the small. Over the counter cans cam be harmful to refrigeration equipment other than cars it's the additives in the refrigerant not that specify it's use I have used the smaller cans in a pinch to fix small refrigeration equipment but I buy the can that is free of the automotive additives(ussually the cheapest one on the shelf) unless I'm using it in a car
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between 134a and R134a refrigerant?
Same thing, R stands for Refrigerant.
What is the weight of a 30 tank and box of 134a?
A typical 30 lb tank of refrigerant 134a weighs around 44-46 lbs when filled with the refrigerant. A box containing a 30 lb tank of refrigerant 134a would weigh slightly more due to packaging materials, but the weight should still be around the same range.
Can you use R134a on the vehicle that call for hfc134a?
Yes, R134a and HFC-134a refer to the same refrigerant, which is 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane. Therefore, if a vehicle specifies HFC-134a, you can use R134a as it is the same chemical compound. However, ensure that the refrigerant meets the manufacturer's specifications and that it is handled properly during servicing.
Is hfc 134-a the same as 134-a?
Yes, HFC-134a and 134a refer to the same chemical compound, which is 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane. The "HFC" designation stands for hydrofluorocarbon, indicating its classification within that group of compounds. HFC-134a is commonly used as a refrigerant in air conditioning and refrigeration systems.
Is r-404a compatible with 134a?
R-404A and R-134a are not compatible for use in the same system. R-404A is a blend of refrigerants, primarily used in low-temperature applications, while R-134a is a single-component refrigerant commonly used in medium-temperature applications. Mixing them can lead to reduced efficiency, system damage, and operational issues. Always consult manufacturer guidelines and refrigerant compatibility charts before making any changes to refrigerant types.
If the same service equipment (recovery machinesmanifold gaugeshoses etc.) is used to service both CFC-12 and HFC-134a systems what will happen?
Using the same service equipment for both CFC-12 and HFC-134a systems can lead to contamination and potential system damage. CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a) have different chemical properties and compatibility issues, which can affect the performance of the refrigerant and the system. Additionally, the oil used in CFC-12 systems is not compatible with HFC-134a, potentially causing lubrication problems. Therefore, it's essential to use dedicated equipment for each refrigerant type to ensure safe and effective servicing.
When using R-134a refrigerant with UV dye as a liquid charge Can you use the same hose and adapter as with regular recharge?
the same hoses can be used. The dye only tints the Freon but does not hurt the hoses or the system.
Can you mix R-134a with synthetic R-134a?
Yes, R-134a can be mixed with synthetic R-134a, as both products are essentially the same refrigerant (tetrafluoroethane) and have similar chemical properties. However, it's important to ensure that the synthetic version is compatible with the system and that the oil used is also suitable for R-134a. Mixing different refrigerants or oils can lead to performance issues or damage to the system. Always consult manufacturer specifications before mixing refrigerants.
Does the ac charge unit fit all types of vehicle low side service port?
They are universal across all types of vehicle for the refrigerant type.. e.g., older vehicles which used R-12 (CFC-12) refrigerant all had the same R-12 schrader valves, and all vehicles with an R-134a (HFC-134) system have the same R-134a schrader valves. This is as they come from the factory... vehicles owners may often change this. For example, an R-12 system converted to R-134a might still retain the R-12 schrader valves.
How do you lubricate auto AC?
The PAG oil gets injected through the same schrader valves the refrigerant is charged into and recovered from.
Is HFC-134a different from R-134a the same?
HFC-134a and R-134a refer to the same chemical compound, which is 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane. The designation "HFC" stands for hydrofluorocarbons, indicating its classification, while "R" is a designation commonly used for refrigerants. Therefore, HFC-134a and R-134a are different names for the same substance utilized in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.
Can you use the same coolant in car and home air conditioners?
Refrigerant - not coolant - and no, they are not compatible.
