Errecom Brilliant UV Dye for Refrigerant Leak Detection (60ml)
Finding a needle-sized leak in a massive refrigeration circuit can waste hours of billable time. The Errecom TR1068.E.H3 Brilliant UV Dye is the professional way to stop the guesswork. Engineered as a safe, solvent-free additive, it circulates through the system and glows vividly under any UV light at the exact point of failure. It’s the ultimate "set and forget" diagnostic tool for HVAC pros who want to find leaks on the first visit.
How it Works
Using the included adapters, simply inject the 60ml cartridge into the system via the service port. As the refrigerant cycles, the dye mixes with the oil. If there is a crack or a loose fitting, the dye escapes and leaves a fluorescent "signature" that is instantly visible under a UV lamp, even from a distance or in tight, dark spaces.
Key Features
- Universal Compatibility: Works perfectly with all CFC, HFC, and HCFC refrigerants and all common lubricants.
- System Safe: 100% solvent-free formula. It will not damage seals, clog internal components, or interfere with recovery machine operation.
- High Visibility: Concentrated fluorescence that stands out clearly under any standard UV lamp.
- Dual Adapters: Comes with both 1/4" and 5/16" SAE flex adapters to suit standard and R410A/R32 service ports.
- Professional Reference: Includes system marking stickers so the next tech knows the system has been dyed.
Tradie Tip: UV dye is your best friend for "intermittent" leaks that won't show up on an electronic sniffer while the system is off. Inject it during a service call, and when you come back in a week, the bright green glow will point you straight to the problem.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will this UV dye damage my air conditioner?
No. Errecom Brilliant is a solvent-free formula. Unlike cheaper dyes that can swell O-rings or degrade compressor oil, this dye is engineered to be completely safe for all internal HVAC components and recovery gear.
What refrigerants is this dye compatible with?
It is universally compatible with all common refrigerants, including R32, R410A, R134a, R404A, and R22, as well as all lubricants (POE, PAG, Mineral, etc.).
Do I need to purge the dye after the leak is found?
No, the dye can stay in the system indefinitely without causing harm. In fact, keeping it in the system provides ongoing leak protection for future inspections.
