Yellow Jacket 22983 Charging Hose Kit

The Yellow Jacket 22983 PLUS II Charging Hose Kit is a professional-grade 3-pack (Red, Yellow, Blue) engineered specifically for the demands of high-pressure HVACR service. Each 36-inch refrigerant charging hose features a 1/4" flare connection with a 45-degree SealRight low loss fitting on the service end. This spring-loaded check valve design is a critical safety feature that immediately traps refrigerant in the hose upon disconnection, significantly reducing the risk of finger burns and helping technicians comply with EPA non-venting regulations.

Constructed with a nylon permeation barrier, these HVAC manifold hoses are compatible with all standard CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants, including R-410A. The Yellow Jacket 22983 is rated for a robust 800 psi maximum working pressure and a 4,000 psi burst pressure, ensuring reliable performance across a temperature range of -20° to 180°F. The low-loss anti-blowback fittings utilize a moisture barrier to prevent environmental contamination, while the 6-inch minimum bend radius allows for easy maneuvering in tight equipment cabinets.

• Automatic Low-Loss Seals: The SealRight 45° fitting prevents refrigerant spray and blowback during disconnects, protecting your hands and the environment.
• High-Pressure Compatibility: Rated for 800 psi working pressure, making it ideal for high-pressure systems like R-410A.
• Permeation Resistance: Integrated nylon moisture barrier meets SAE J2196 requirements for protecting refrigerant purity.
• Durable Brass Connections: Deeply knurled brass nuts provide a secure grip for hand-tightening, even with oily gloves.
• Environmental Compliance: Assists in meeting non-venting regulations by trapping residual gas within the 3-foot line.

Common Questions & Contractor Insights:

Are these hoses compatible with R-410A?
Yes. These hoses are rated for 800 psi working pressure, which is more than sufficient for the higher pressures associated with R-410A systems.

Can the SealRight fittings be rebuilt?
Yes. Unlike many disposable hoses, these 1/4" SealRight fittings can be serviced with rebuild kits (such as Yellow Jacket 19041) if the internal gaskets or plungers wear down over time.

How do these help with EPA 608 compliance?
The anti-blowback mechanism ensures that the volume of refrigerant trapped in the 36-inch hose is not vented to the atmosphere when you disconnect from the service port.
