R410A tools Can R22 tools be used?
Gas leak detector
R410A has high pressures beyond the measurement range of existing
gauges.
Hose material has been changed to improve the pressure resistance.
Dedicated for HFC refrigerant.
1/4in. and 3/8in.
Description
Clamp bar hole has been enlarged to reinforce the spring strength in the tool.
Provided for flaring work (to be used with R22 flare tool).
Provided to prevent the back flow of oil. This adapter enables you to use
vacuum pumps.
It is difficult to measure R410A with a charging cylinder because the
refrigerant bubbles due to high pressure and high-speed vaporization.

1. Tools dedicated for the air conditioner with R410A refrigerant
The following tools are required for R410A refrigerant. Some R22 tools can be substituted for R410A tools.
New Specification Current Specification
The incompatible refrigeration oil easily separates from
refrigerant and is in the upper layer inside the suction muffler.
Raising position of the oil back hole enables to back the
refrigeration oil of the upper layer to flow back to the
compressor.
Since refrigerant and refrigeration oil are compatible,
refrigeration oil goes back to the compressor through the
lower position oil back hole.
