I thought maybe $50 at the high side, but $200!! I rather lose a bit of freon.

Just wait till China start producing them. These are basically quick connectors that are used in car AC's. I predict you will be able to get them for less then $10.

[@WaffleStaffel]

Unless your gauge is only servicing one refrigerant and you're keeping the gas in the hoses in between connections, you're loosing quite a bit more gas from the system by pressurizing the hoses when you connect them to the system than you are by just attaching the hoses and loosing a little hiss or spritz of liquid, aren't you? Unless you're _really_ slow when you screw the fittings on.

@@WaffleStaffel And since refrigerant loss damaging the ozone layer, and now they say ozone safe refrigerants still need to need replaced because they have to high of a (shit I just had training on it and don't recall what the scam was) we gotta switch again. I like pepperage farms remember when we purged and pressure tested R-22 systems with R-12 because it was cheaper than nitrogen. Funny how the OMG R-12 is killing the ozone layer happened when DuPonts patent expired. I also remember then they came for R-22 using the same reasons, so R410A came out. It was said to be ozone friendly, safe for the environment etc. But here we are again, and R410A is evil, and we must replace it with R454B, its already stated that in 10 or so years we will need to replace R454B....do you see the pattern I see?

Lots and lots of units where there's not enough room to fit these due to bad engineering from the manufacturer not thinking about the service techs. Price is too much. Obviously the hoses must still fill up with refrigerant. So there may be less squirts upon connecting and disconnecting, there's still refrigerant loss in the gauges and hoses.

[@turnedearthdesign8678]

That's why I love the fieldpiece probes and tees and backseat control valves. Incredibly small amount of refrigerant loss when connecting/disconnecting

[@davidlundy5007]

Not to mention if you leave the hoses pressurized then hang your manifold in the truck on a hot day your gauges could blow a spring with the increased pressure. Don’t ask me how I know.

Fieldpiece (JL3) and Testo (an others) make wireless pressure probes that you can connect to low loss fittings. Almost zero refrigerant loss. You can also connect a tee fitting for charging (with a hose of course)

[@OGHVAC]

It's what I use and zero refrigerant burn with extremely low loss. I swear by them. Great product

[@KefirTView]

Show me how they work in the most common scenario. Make sure it's hot AF outside, have the system running and in the same continuous video frame, show me the loss using the conventional hose connectors and then with these unique adapters.

[@devnull7550]

As far as limiting refrigerant loss, I don't think anything works better than a thumb screw core depressor.

[@wiley0714]

There have been designs like those before from about 10 years ago. The problem was when disconnecting if the Schrader valve is bad once you release the fitting, you're gonna have the refrigerant spraying out. With the low loss fitting, as your unscrewing it outside of the initial spurt of refrigerant if for some reason, you detect a more constant release, at that moment, you have the potential to realize that the Schrader valve might have stuck. At that moment, in time, he won't be in as bad a position as you would, as if you just detached the quick coupler and had a dead spray of refrigerant coming out into your face . From what I have been able to tell and I am no engineer by any means is that the standard quarter inch connectors tend to be a piece of brass that screws on and pulls a nylon cone against the valve to seal it. The anti-blowback/loss fittings Are basically the same thing except instead of having the nylon cone they use the same thing that those fittings use which is an O-ring to seal when they are tightened.

[@MrsOveata]

Where have you been. Automotive techs have been using quick connects on ac recovery machines for over 20 years.

[@UtwoBed]

Shoot, I've been using a set of those for over 5 years. But be aware, when you pop off that high side the O-Ring is going to fly out, so keep it close to the fitting or put a rag around it, also it does not like to go on if there is pressure in the hose.

[@keovongvilaykeo4799]

Great as always thank you 🙏 😊

[@USNveteran]

When changing O rings I would lubricate them with vaseline or DC-4 to help them last, good info here. FLY NAVY!!!

[@mxslick50]

And you'll end up contaminating the refrigerant in the process. The o rings do not ever need to be lubed in this application. If anything, the ONLY safe lube to use would be Nylog.

[@carlossaenz4075]

I would like to know if I can put a sequencer ( time delay ) after the contactor to my compressor and which load voltage line do I use . Do I put it on the black that goes directly to the compressor after the contacter or what . I know that I have to put 24 in line to the contact too the time delay . Put can this be done ? And will effect the compressor in any way. Other than 1) it will first make the condenser fan will start first and after a few seconds the time delay will make the compressor start. What do u think !!!!! And how

[@michael.843]

You can buy the CPS core depressors for 1/4 of that price.

[@stevencoleman4149]

You're looking at around 3 oz of refrigerant per hose loss every time you connect a manifold set with standard length hoses. Do that enough times and you ARE the leak. Yes, you could disconnect the high-side and pump the gauges down but you're looking at possible contaminants or a non-condensable unless you bled your manifold first. Anytime you open a system to check pressures there is going to be a loss, the idea is to limit that as much as possible. When I got to the point, I needed to check super-heat or sub-cooling I had over the years, built multiple sets consisting of only of high and low side gauges dependent on the equipment connected directly to a low loss access fitting. A simple Cooper electronic thermometer with decent set of clamp-on probes will with those gauges tell you everything you need to know and the refrigerant loss is much less than with a manifold even if it's properly bled and pumped down. Here is where I piss a lot of people off, why did you open that system to install a manifold in the first place? If you've got a good TD, compressor amps are in a narrow range of 80% FLA , you KNOW the coils are clean and airflow correct and there are no odd noises or vibrations what are you looking for? TD will point you toward airflow, capacity or refrigerant, compressor amps will point you to refrigerant, or an electrical/mechanical issue. Unless something is pointing you in that direction why are you opening a system?

[@Glocktard]

I’m only a home owner diy wannabe ac tech (I try my best to fix things) but I think your comment might be of obvious brilliance. Thanks.

[@ZERO-F2G-]

Spot on! WHY IS THIS SO HARD FOR SO MANY TO UNDERSTAND? I have tried to drill this into younger techs for 30 years, sometimes with effect but mostly not. I still battle it and the techs say they do it because the home owner expects it. Which tell me I need to get them trained in explaining why they don't need to hook up unless their is an issue, they can gather all the info needed if their isn't an issue without hooking up. Sometimes I am told they do it because the customer expects it, thus more training is needed so the can educate the costumer on why and when to hook up or not.

[@stevencoleman4149]

@@ZERO-F2G- I think that's the way they are trained in many of the technical schools these days. The biggest problem is I've seen so many that all they did was hook up a set of gauges not realizing that is only one of the tools you can use. Another problem I've seen are kids coming from technical schools that cannot calculate super-heat or sub-cooling unless they have a electronic manifold that tells them what it is. That indicates to me they really don't understand the concept and are just doing what they've been instructed to do. It also means when they run into their first "problem child" they are going to be stuck and have no idea what to do next. The smart ones, who realize they don't know everything and there is always something new to learn will ask for help from the manufacturer or a more experienced tech. The others are just another call back waiting to happen. Experience will eventually level the playing field. We all run into something we've never seen for the first time. It's how we handle and work through it that makes the difference.

[@DonTgurdy1488]

Couldn't agree more!! Hooking up gauges is a last resort!! I just got hired at a company. I've been in the field several years. They told me I had to check pressures on every maintenance. I said "nope! Not doing that" if you are a decent technician, you will understand why hooking up gauges should be done only when you have no other option. You can check the charge using other methods; check the outdoor ambient temperature and compare it to the temperature coming out of the top of the condenser. Use a temp clamp and check the temperature of the line set. Check DT... Sooooo many things you can check before having to hook up gauges.

Unless you have an actual problem with a unit, it is no longer considered good practice nor even necessary to check an a/c unit's refrigerant charge. You are better off only checking temperatures of the air intake and out, temperature of the lines, and temps in and out inside. And instead of these tools, you should use Accutools's valves that first attach to the lines, then attach your measurement tool, then they have screw valves that then depress the shraders to allow refrigerant in. Even then, only one is really necessary for the liquid line, and if you use probes, will not lose any siginificant refrigerant that needs to be fed back into the system.

Nothing truly revolutionary, just a variation on already good systems for a fraction of the cost. And gloves? you kidding me? in 36 years I have never worn gloves to connect refrigerant hoses, and cannot remember seeing anyone else do so, except maybe a cherry just out of school and that lasted maybe a few days.
