Freeze 12r Conversion Kit - Johnsens Technical Chemical

Part #: 8523

The Johnsens Technical Chemical 8523 Freeze 12r Conversion Kit provides professional technicians with a streamlined solution for converting automotive air conditioning systems originally designed for R-12 refrigerant. This kit enables a smooth transition to Freeze 12r, an EPA/SNAP-accepted alternative, ensuring that older vehicles can maintain functional and efficient cooling systems. Engineered for quick and straightforward installation, it minimizes the complexity typically associated with refrigerant conversions.

Key Features

  • R-12 System Conversion: Specifically formulated to facilitate the conversion of R-12 automotive A/C systems to utilize Freeze 12r refrigerant.
  • Oil Compatibility: Freeze 12r is a blend containing R-142b, which is designed to be compatible with the mineral oil commonly found in R-12 systems, potentially reducing the need for extensive oil flushing compared to direct R-134a conversions.
  • Quick Charge Design: The kit includes essential fittings, hoses, and dispensing valves to enable efficient and accurate charging, promoting a "quick charge" process for busy shops.
  • Performance Characteristics: Designed to closely duplicate the operating characteristics of R-12, aiming to deliver comparable cooling performance in retrofitted systems.
  • Professional-Grade Components: Manufactured by Johnsens Technical Chemical, ensuring reliable and durable components suitable for professional shop environments.
  • Reduced System Modifications: While unique fittings are required for any retrofit, Freeze 12r's formulation is intended to allow for a less intrusive conversion process compared to a full R-134a retrofit, particularly concerning lubricants.

Applications

The Johnsens Technical Chemical 8523 Freeze 12r Conversion Kit is ideal for professional mechanics and automotive technicians servicing a wide range of older vehicles equipped with R-12 air conditioning systems. It provides a practical and efficient method to update these systems to an environmentally accepted refrigerant, maintaining vehicle comfort and compliance.
