The Mini ID utilizes a disposable oil filter that
can not be cleaned.
Be sure to have spare filters available as the
instrument cannot be operated with a contaminated filter.

The Mini ID is equipped with internal fault codes for assistance with troubleshooting. When the “FAULT” light is illuminated, the code is determined by
counting the number of flashes.
Code 3 = Calibration Error
Code 4 = Temperature Error
Code 5 = Calibration Compensation Error
Should one of these codes appear, take the following action prior to contacting you Mastercool Service Representative.
1. Disconnect the power from the instrument and verify the power source is
between 12 and 15 VDC.
2. Place the unit in a climate controlled area between 15°C and 27°C.
3. Fully Squeeze the Calibration Bulb 10 times.
4. Allow the unit to remain in the climate controlled room for 30 minutes.
5. Reconnect the unit and re-test.
If these steps fail to restore the unit to good working order, contact:

•
Always wear eye and skin protection when working with refrigerants. Escaping refrigerant vapors will present a freezing danger.
•
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not disassemble the instrument; do not use the instrument in wet or damp areas.
•
DO NOT direct refrigerant vapors venting from hoses towards the skin.
•
DO NOT disassemble the instrument. There are no serviceable components internal to the instrument and disassembly will void the warranty.
•
Always place the Identifier on a flat and sturdy surface.
•
DO NOT utilize any other hose other than those supplied with the instrument. The use of other hose types will introduce errors into the refriger-
ant analysis and instrument calibration.
•
Always verify that the refrigerant to be tested does not contain or will not
emit heavy loads of oil or liquid.
•
NEVER admit any sample into the instrument at pressures in excess of
300 psig.
•
DO NOT utilize the coupler supplied on the service end of the R134a
Sample Hose for any application other than with the instrument. The
coupler supplied is a modified version that does not contain a check
valve and is not suitable for any other refrigerant application.
•
NEVER obstruct the air intake, sample exhaust or case vent ports of the
instrument during use.
• WARNING – This Identifier must not be operated in flammable atmospheres.
• CAUTION – Should be operated by certified personnel.
• Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may
irritate eyes, nose and throat. To remove HFC-134a from the A/C system,
use service equipment certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2788.
Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant
and lubricant manufacturers.
• CAUTION – Do not pressure test or leak test HFC-134a service equipment
and/or vehicle air conditioning systems with compressed air. Some mixtures of air and HFC-134a have been shown to be combustible at elevated
pressures. These mixtures, if ignited, may cause injury or property damage.
Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant
manufacturers.

WARNING: Be sure to turn off the vehicle and let it rest for 3 minutes.
1) Connect the power cable to the power port located on the bottom of the
instrument.
2) Connect the power clips to the 12 VDC battery source. Be sure to observe the correct polarity.
3) The lights will sequence, press “NEXT” to begin the “WARM UP”.
4) After approximately 90 seconds, the “CALIBRATING” light will flash.
5) Fully squeeze the calibration bulb 5 times and press “NEXT”.
6) The “CALIBRATING’ light will illuminate for approximately 60 seconds.
7) When the Analyzing light begin to flash, connect hose to the vehicles low
side service port and then press “NEXT”.
8) The Analyzing light will illuminate for approximately 45 seconds while the
test is in progress.
9) The “PASS”/”FAIL” light will then provide the test results (See The Test

DESCRIPTION
ESCRIPTION
DDD
ESCRIPTIONESCRIPTION
Contamination of refrigerants in vehicle air conditioning systems can lead to
component corrosion, elevated head pressures and system failures when
utilized by unsuspecting technicians. The ability of the technician to determine refrigerant type and purity is severely hampered by the presence of air
when attempting to utilize temperature-pressure relations. The development of various substitute refrigerants further complicates the ability of a
technician to identify refrigerant purity based upon temperature-pressure
relationships. The substitute refrigerant blends can also introduce a flammability hazard to the technician and the ultimate end user of the vehicle air
conditioning system.
The Mini ID Refrigerant Identifier will provide an easy and accurate means to
determine if the R134a refrigerant in vehicle air conditioning systems is of
suitable purity. The instrument utilizes non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) technology to determine the weight concentrations of refrigerant types R12,
R134a, R22, as well as, hydrocarbons and air. Refrigerant purity is automatically determined for refrigerant R134a by the instrument to eliminate
human error.
The instrument is supplied complete with a R134a sample hose, a 12 VDC
power cord and all required plumbing housed within a rugged, portable in-
strument.
The Mini ID is an economical instrument designed to provide a “PASS” or
“FAIL” indication for R134a Purity. The product will also indicate if an excess amount of non-condensable gas (air) is present in the system. Excess
“air” will cause poor cooling performance and can be easily corrected by
simply recovering the refrigerant, evacuating the system and recharging the
vehicle. The Mini ID uses a simple hand pump to purge refrigerant from the
sample cell in order to calibrate the instrument. LED’s provide the user with
easy to understand status indicators. Flashing LED’s require user action
while solid LED’s indicate the instrument is performing a task.
The unique brass filter, located between the Coupler and Sample Hose, provides excellent protection from oil contamination by trapping the oil at the
coupler and preventing it from entering the instrument. If the instrument
continually gives excess air messages, this is an indication that the filter has
been compromised by oil and the filter must be changed.
