Rotary (VSG) recently announced a new line of fully automatic A/C diagnostic and recharging equipment through its partnership with TEXA. The machines were unveiled for the first time at the 2022 SEMA Show as a quick and efficient way to recover, recycle and recharge R134a and R1234yf refrigerant gases.
The company says it will release three models in the spring of 2023: single-gas R3AC50-A (R134a refrigerant compatible), single-gas R3AC60-YF (R1234yf refrigerant compatible), and dual-gas R3AC80-AYF (both R134a and R1234yf compatible) that automatically purges between gas changes.
“We look forward to hitting the market this spring with a product that will increase the amount of work shops can perform – and revenue that can be obtained – as we head into the busy A/C season,” said Ian Wendler, Vice President & General Manager for VSG Americas.
“Based on the high excitement and interest generated during their debut and demonstration at this year’s SEMA Show, it’s clear we have something that automotive service professionals will want to get their hands on sooner rather than later,” Wendler added.
The A/C machines make it possible for service centers to charge more vehicles per year. Each machine can update automatically, receive remote assistance and connect to other devices, such as printers and smartphones.
Rotary is currently accepting preorders for Spring 2023 delivery.
