MADISON, Ind. — Vehicle Service Group's (VSG) Rotary brand has introduced a line of fully automatic air conditioning diagnostic and recharging equipment.
The Rotary R3AC Series A/C recharging machines are designed to automatically service the refrigerant in vehicle air conditioning systems: recovering, recycling and recharging R134a and R1234yf refrigerant gases.
Three models are now available:
- Single-gas R3AC50-A (R134a refrigerant compatible);
- Single-gas R3AC60-YF (R1234yf refrigerant compatible); and
- Dual-gas R3AC80-AYF (both R134a and R1234yf compatible) that purges automatically between gas changes.
"These A/C recharging machines are the new standard in efficiency and convenience for automotive repair shops and their customers," Doug Spiller, director of product management for VSG Americas, said.
"We are excited to equip shops with a tool that will help them extend their service capabilities and obtain greater revenues — just in time for the busy A/C season."
Powered by TEXA, a manufacturer of vehicle diagnostic tools, exhaust gas analyzers, air conditioning recharge stations and telediagnostic devices, the Rotary A/C machines deliver improved process times with detailed vehicle data subscriptions, enabling service shops to charge more vehicles annually, VSG said.
Each machine is Wi-Fi enabled, updates automatically and can connect to peripheral devices such as smartphones and printers. Remote monitoring is available through a mobile app, which allows technicians to focus on other tasks while the A/C machine is in operation.
The new A/C machines are supported by Rotary's nationwide service network and warranty.
