Cps Products uvs1 Prefilled Refrigerant Dye Cartridge

Product Description

The CPS PRODUCTS uvs1 is a prefilled refrigerant dye squeeze cartridge designed for leak detection in medium-sized air conditioning systems. The cartridge contains a universal OEM-approved dye formula in a purple color, allowing technicians to quickly identify refrigerant leaks under UV light. It is sized for systems with a refrigerant charge of 3 to 4.9 lbs and a refrigerant oil volume of 16 oz to 1.6 qt. The squeeze-cartridge design eliminates the need to use refrigerant gas to inject dye, which prevents air from entering the system and reduces the risk of over-injection. The dye meets SAE J2297 standard.

This cartridge is intended for residential and light-commercial AC systems in the medium charge range. It is a practical choice for HVAC technicians performing leak detection as part of routine service calls or system diagnostics. The prefilled, single-use format speeds up the injection process and removes the guesswork around correct dye volume. Identification labels are included to document that fluorescent dye has been added to the system, which supports future service visits.

Key Features

• Prefilled squeeze cartridge for refrigerant charge sizes of 3 to 4.9 lbs
• Compatible with refrigerant oil volumes from 16 oz to 1.6 qt
• Purple fluorescent dye for visual leak identification under UV light
• Universal OEM-approved dye formula meets SAE J2297 standard
• No refrigerant required for injection, preventing air contamination of the system
• Includes system identification labels for service documentation

Compatibility

Designed for use in medium residential AC systems with a refrigerant charge of 3 to 4.9 lbs and refrigerant oil capacity of 16 oz to 1.6 qt.

Installation Notes

This product is installed by licensed HVAC technicians as part of a leak detection procedure. Before injecting dye, follow standard refrigerant system safety procedures and consult local codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines. The squeeze-cartridge method does not require system refrigerant for injection, but the system should be in a safe service state before any access fittings are opened. After injection, use a UV leak detection lamp to locate fluorescent dye at the leak site.
