TESTING FOR ACID IS AN IMPORTANT PART
OF REGULAR PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE.
The Acid Test makes testing for acid in air conditioning and refrigeration
systems easier,
safer and less expensive than ever, while requiring only a small oil
sample
for accurate results in seconds. The Acid Test provides an accurate
and
quick way to test for acid in all refrigeration oils.
The Acid Test is like having your own portable acid testing laboratory
for eliminating the expense and inconvenient delays for laboratory analysis.
SIMPLE DIRECTIONS FOR USING
Material in vials should be blue or violet when opened.
1.Remove top from plastic canister and peel away protective
foam seal.
2.Remove the twist off cap from one vial.
3.Partially fill vial with an equal amount of test oil to a level 8mm
or 1/4 inch
below neck of vial.
4.Replace cap and tighten securely.
5.Vigorously shake vial for 2 to 5 seconds.
6.Visually check the color of the resulting material in vial.
Test Results:
|
Blue or Violet -No Acid Present Blue or violet indicates that there is no acid
present. No further steps are necessary |
|
|
Green -Moderately Acidic Green indicates there is a moderate level of
acid in the system. It is likely that acid |
|
|
Yellow -Acidic Yellow indicates the presence of acid levels
that are potentially dangerous and may |

NOTICE: The Acid Test is designed to indicate the nominal Ph ranges present in refrigeration lubricants. Any action or inaction as a result of this test is at the sole discretion of the user. Blue or violet color indicates a nominal Ph of 6.8 or higher, green color indicates a nominal Ph of 6.8 to 5.2, yellow color indicates a nominal Ph of 5.2 or below. Some Polyolester lubricants are slightly acidic and may test as acidic due to various additives or manufacturing processes. Contact the lubricant manufacturer for acceptable and expected acid levels. Refrigeration oils containing high levels of acid are dangerous and can burn skin and damage equipment. handle with extreme care. Disposal should be in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. |
