Parker 880AC-8-4 Refrigerant Adapter 1/4 Inch Tube Od

Product Description

The PARKER 880AC-8-4 is a refrigerant adapter designed for use with Parker brass access valves. It accepts a 1/4-inch tube OD connection, making it a direct-fit accessory for service ports on refrigerant circuits. HVAC technicians use this adapter during system diagnostics, charging, and recovery procedures. At 0.06 pounds, the part is compact and lightweight. It is sold individually and is intended to extend or convert the connection point on compatible Parker access valve bodies, allowing technicians to interface standard refrigerant hoses and gauges with the valve assembly.

This adapter is commonly used in residential and light commercial refrigeration and air conditioning service work. It is installed at the access valve port to facilitate refrigerant handling tasks such as system evacuation, refrigerant charging, and pressure testing. Technicians working on split systems, package units, and refrigeration equipment will encounter this type of adapter when servicing systems equipped with Parker brass access valves. It is a replacement or supplemental accessory, not a standalone valve.

Installation Notes

Installation of this adapter should be performed by a licensed HVAC or refrigeration technician.

Use appropriate refrigerant service hoses and fittings rated for the system refrigerant type and pressure. Do not overtighten the adapter, as brass fittings are susceptible to thread damage.
