Easy, Zero-Leak, Repeatable System Access for Refrigerant System Process Tubes

The new ZeroMax™ Access Port and Tooling system was designed to address the shortcomings of process stub tubes and service valves used by OEM manufacturers of PTAC, Commercial Refrigerators and Split AC & Heat Pump systems including:

  • Accessing a sealed process stub tube for rework or service, and
  • Connector blow-off when charging refrigerant through service valves

Processing PTAC/PTHP and Commercial Refrigerators using traditional process “stub” tubes is cumbersome, can release refrigerant to atmosphere, and requires time consuming manual “Pinch-N-Braze” sealing or expensive automatic ultrasonic welders to create a permanent seal upon processing completion. Moreover, gaining system access for rework or post-production service is a time consuming and often unreliable process that can result in leakage of refrigerant to the environment. 

With FasTest’s ZeroMax™ Access Port system, manufacturers can eliminate the process stub tube altogether while maintaining full flow for the fastest possible evacuation. In addition, should system access be required for rework, field service or end-of-life refrigerant recovery, the ZeroMax™ system provides easy access and a reliable hermetic seal, eliminating the need for leak-prone, expensive saddle valves. Also, as new, flammable, “A2L” refrigerants are introduced, processing “split” AC & Heat Pumps through “service salves” can result in a dangerous connector blow-off event and potential fire. Processing through the secure ZeroMax™ system eliminates the service valve and its associated risks.
