Why R410A Requires Special Manifolds?
R410A operates at significantly higher pressures than older refrigerants like R22. Whilst this manifold set can be used with R410A, you'll need R410A-specific adapters (90413) to connect to R410A service ports, which use larger 5/16" fittings with 1/2"-20 UNF threads instead of standard 1/4" SAE fittings. The manifold itself is built to handle R410A's higher operating pressures safely.
R410A System Characteristics:
- Higher Operating Pressures – Up to 50% higher than R22
- 5/16" Service Ports – Requires adapters for connection
- 1/2"-20 UNF Thread – Different from standard SAE threads
- Colour Coding – Often pink/rose colour for identification
- POE Oil Required – Not compatible with mineral oil
Why Choose 90cm (36") Hoses?
- Standard Length – Ideal for most residential and light commercial applications
- Portable – Easy to transport and store
- Versatile – Suitable for most service situations
- Cost-Effective – Good balance of reach and affordability
- Easy to Manage – Not too long to be cumbersome
Free-Floating Piston Valve Advantage:
Unlike traditional twisting piston valves, Mastercool's free-floating piston valves move straight in and out, resulting in less wear and tear, longer service life, and more reliable sealing over time.
Benefits:
- R410A Ready – Designed for modern refrigerant systems
- Professional Quality – Forged brass construction ensures durability
- Large Gauges – 63mm dials are easy to read
- Multi-Refrigerant – Works with R410A, R507, R404A, R22
- Complete Kit – Everything needed to start servicing
- Free-Floating Valves – Longer service life, better sealing
- Professional Accuracy – 1.6 gauge class for precise readings
- Standard Hose Length – 90cm suits most applications
How to Use:
- Connect R410A adapters (90413) to hose ends if servicing R410A systems
- Connect blue hose to low-side (suction) service port
- Connect red hose to high-side (discharge) service port
- Connect yellow hose to refrigerant cylinder or vacuum pump
- Open manifold valves as needed for charging or recovery
- Monitor pressures on gauges during operation
- Close valves when service is complete
- Disconnect hoses and store manifold in case
Maintenance:
- Inspect hoses regularly for cracks or damage
- Check gauge accuracy annually
- Replace O-rings if leaks develop
- Keep valves clean and free from debris
- Store in protective case when not in use
- Avoid over-tightening connections
Replacement Parts:
- 85215 — O-Rings (4 pieces)
