Robinair 16350 HVAC-R and Automotive UV Leak Detection Kit with Case
- The Robinair 16350 HVAC-R and Automotive UV Leak Detection Kit is a professional diagnostic tool for locating leaks in refrigerant, vacuum, and engine intake systems. It uses a high-power ultraviolet lamp and dye to highlight leak spots on gaskets, hoses, seals, and fittings.
- Features:
- Powerful 50 watt UV lamp powered by 12 volt DC with 15 ft cord and battery clips for mobile use
- Injection gun with hose for delivering UV dye into refrigeration or A/C systems, compatible with R-134a and R-12
- Dye cartridges to introduce fluorescent tracer that glows under UV when it escapes through leaks
- UV enhancing glasses and dye cleaner help view leaks and remove residual stain
- Storage case holds lamp, hose, gun, dye, and accessories in organized layout
- Includes:
- UV lamp assembly with power cord and battery clips
- Injection gun with hose and adaptor fittings
- Four dye cartridges (universal R-134a / R-12 type)
- UV enhancing safety glasses with dye cleaner
- Protective storage case with molded compartments

The Robinair 16350 UV Leak Detection Kit combines a high output UV lamp, injection dye, and accessories in a portable case to assist technicians in locating small leaks in A/C, refrigeration, and vacuum systems reliably.
Q: Can this kit detect leaks in turbo boost systems?
A: It is primarily designed for low pressure systems like A/C, vacuum, intake, and refrigerant circuits. It is not intended for high boost pressures.
Q: How is the dye introduced into the system?
A: The included injection gun and hose are used to inject UV tracer dye into the system which then escapes through leaks and glows under the UV lamp.
Q: Are the dye cartridges replaceable?
A: Yes. The kit uses standard universal dye cartridges compatible with R-134a and R-12 systems, which can be replaced when depleted.
