The dye is injected into the system and circulates with the refrigerant and oil. When a UV or black light is applied to the system components, any leak point glows brightly, allowing the technician to pinpoint the source quickly. Each cartridge contains 0.5 ounces of dye formulated for use in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. This is a standard tool for HVAC service professionals performing leak diagnostics on residential and light commercial equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis dye cartridge is suited for use in split systems, package units, and other refrigeration equipment where refrigerant or oil leak detection is required. The 0.5 oz single-use format is sized for typical service calls on smaller systems. It is compatible with standard dye injector tools used in the HVAC trade. Technicians typically inject the dye through a low-side service port using a dedicated injector tool, then run the system to circulate the dye before performing a UV light inspection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFluorescent UV-activated formula glows under UV or black light for precise leak identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5 oz cartridge sized for single-system service applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCirculates with refrigerant and oil to reach all potential leak points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard HVAC dye injector tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports faster diagnosis compared to electronic leak detection alone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in air conditioning and refrigeration systems requiring fluorescent dye leak detection.

Follow EPA Section 608 regulations regarding refrigerant handling during the injection process. After injection, run the system for a sufficient period to allow the dye to circulate fully before conducting a UV light inspection. Do not exceed the dye quantity recommended by the system manufacturer, as excess dye can affect system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDye Volume\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDye Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fluorescent UV-activated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 cartridge per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ritchie Engineering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 69601\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RITCHIE ENGINEERING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138338455858,"sku":"69601","price":20.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/305530992.jpg?v=1778253720","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ritchie-engineering-69601-uv-dye-cartridge-0-5-oz-leak-detection","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
