Specifications
The Neutronics Ultima ID Refrigerant Identifier with Printer, model RI-2004DXP, is engineered for precise refrigerant analysis. It weighs 9.85 lbs. The device operates on 9-15 VDC, drawing a maximum of 2 Amps, with options for internal battery power and AC supply. It accurately identifies R12, R134a, R22, Hydrocarbons, and Air, along with EPA S.N.A.P. approved blends and illegal replacements such as propane and butane. Analysis is performed using Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology, processing vapor-only, oil-free samples at up to 300 psig (2 MPa) maximum. It delivers results in approximately 60 seconds. The Ultima ID features a 128 x 64 pixel graphing LCD with a resolution of 0.1%. It is designed to operate within a temperature range of 40°F to 130°F (4°C to 54°C) and at 0-95% RH non-condensing humidity. The unit holds UL, CE, and SAE J1771 approvals.
Key Features
- Integrated Printer: Includes a built-in thermal printer for on-the-spot documentation of test results, enabling clear record-keeping and customer receipts.
- Advanced Refrigerant Identification: Identifies R12, R134a, R22, Hydrocarbons, and Air. It also detects EPA S.N.A.P. approved blends and dangerous illegal replacements like propane and butane.
- NDIR Technology: Utilizes Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology to determine the precise weight concentrations of refrigerants and contaminants.
- Blend-ID Software: Features exclusive "Blend-ID" analytical software for quickly and accurately indicating the presence of EPA S.N.A.P. approved blend refrigerants.
- Automatic Purity Assessment: Automatically determines if the purity of R12 and R134a refrigerants meets industry acceptable levels (98% pure or greater).
- User-Friendly Display: Equipped with a large 128 x 64 pixel graphing LCD for easy readability and operation.
- Portable and Durable Design: Engineered for portability and durability, often supplied within a rugged storage case.
- Fast Analysis: Provides rapid test results within approximately 60 seconds.
Applications
The Ultima ID Refrigerant Identifier with Printer is utilized across various service and maintenance scenarios:
- Automotive A/C Service: Essential for verifying refrigerant purity in vehicle air conditioning systems before recovery or recharging.
- HVAC/R System Maintenance: Used to analyze refrigerant quality in commercial and residential HVAC/R systems.
- Refrigerant Reclamation Centers: Aids in pre-screening refrigerants prior to consolidation and reclamation processes to prevent contamination.
- Refrigerant Distribution: Ensures the purity of refrigerants in storage cylinders and tanks.
Benefits
- Protects Equipment: Safeguards expensive A/C recovery and service equipment from damage caused by contaminated refrigerants.
- Ensures System Integrity: Prevents cross-contamination within A/C systems, preserving their operational integrity and longevity.
- Enhances Accuracy: Provides fast and accurate identification of refrigerant types and purity levels, reducing the potential for human error.
- Compliance Assurance: Helps users comply with industry standards and regulations for refrigerant handling, such as SAE J1771.
- Documented Verification: The integrated printer provides immediate, verifiable records of refrigerant analysis for customers, service logs, or regulatory requirements.
- Cost Efficiency: Minimizes the need for costly and time-consuming external laboratory analysis, and prevents financial losses associated with improper refrigerant disposal or system damage.
