In Focus: Cliplight FLASH UV leak-detection dye

April 21, 2010
FLASH dye flashes as a moisture-free mist.

Cliplight’s FLASH ultra-violet leak-detection dye, No. 980, contains no POE oil; instead it uses Cliplight’s DRY R AUTO drying agent to keep the dye stable and prevent it from crystallizing with moisture. FLASH dye flashes as a moisture-free mist that instantaneously mixes with system refrigerant/oil. Packaged in a vacuum-packed “one-time-use can,” FLASH uses Cliplight’s patented injection hose coupled with DRY R, allowing the dye to mist into the system for instant distribution that is quick, even and reliable.

Instead of the conventional methods of injecting calibrated amounts of UV dye, FLASH dye flashes as a moisture-free mist that instantaneously mixes with system refrigerant/oil. Once connected to the low side port of an idle A/C system, the refrigerant charges the patented vacuum-packed, propellant-free disposable can design. It then mixes with the dye and enters the system as a mist through a regulating 29/1000th fixed orifice opening in the injection hose during start-up.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Reduced clean-up and/or storage with dyes or dye injectors.
• System refrigerant cleans residual dye from the reusable can tapper hose and readies it for the next application. (Hose is sold separately, No. 943.)
• No contaminating moisture is introduced to the system.

SELLING TIPS

• Same reliable customer service support from the company that provides the Super Seal family of vacuum-packed A/C sealants for both the automotive and HVAC/R industries and now has more than 1 million applications.
• FLASH is available in a 12-piece counter presentation pack, including a separate tent card.
• Also sold in leak detection kits.
