Robinair 16990 R-ID Refrigerant Analyzer

16990 R-ID Refrigerant Analyzer

Identifying refrigerant before A/C service helps technicians avoid working with contaminated or incorrect refrigerant. The Robinair 16990 R-ID Refrigerant Analyzer quickly tests vehicle A/C refrigerant and determines its composition, making it a practical tool for R-134a and R-1234yf service.

The R-ID measures R-1234yf, R-134a, and R-12 while detecting contaminants such as R-22, hydrocarbons, and unknown refrigerants. Its 5" color LCD with soft keys provides clear results, while USB 2.0 connectivity allows the analyzer to connect directly to compatible SAE J2843 or J3030 A/C service machines with an external USB port.

Certified to CE, UL, and SAE standards, the Robinair 16990 exceeds SAE J2912 accuracy requirements. Its lithium battery, compact design, and included storage case make it convenient for technicians who need reliable refrigerant analysis during vehicle A/C service.

Forklifts and Lift Gates

All of our Single Post, 2 Post, and 4 Post Lifts* require a forklift (or similar) to unload.  Tire Changers and Balancers and other small items allow for a lift gate service (At no additional charge) Lift gate service will lower your order to street level.  How do I know if a forklift is required? See the drop down options that show when you're attempting to place an order. 

What if I don't have a forklift at my location and my order requires it?

This is a common question and here's some alternatives:

• We can deliver to a local freight terminal near you.  Typically this is within 30-60 minutes away depending on location.  We will find a location - Contact Us
• Do you have a buddy that owns a forklift and we can ship it there?  Does your place of work have a forklift?  Select this location as the delivery address. 
• Warehouse pickup - This is always an option but depends how far you're willing to drive. 
• Rent a forklift - This is the least favorable option but may be necessary.  We always schedule the delivery so this should minimize the days required to rent.

Can I hand unload my order if I don't have a forklift? 

No, sorry, the truck drivers don't allow for this.  2 things: Liabilities and the time it takes to unload - truck drivers can't wait, even if you have an army of help.

Will the freight company contact me to schedule the delivery?

Warehouse Pickup (No Freight Charge)

Warehouse pickup is available for almost all of our brands.  Warehouse locations are listed on each product page.  At checkout, select "Pickup" and choose the warehouse you'd like to pickup from.  Upon ordering, we will send an email with the pickup form/number. 

Freight Terminals

If you don't have a forklift at your location, we can find you a freight terminal in your area and they will load your trailer onsite.  (Typically 30-60 minute drive away, depending on location) Special note: Some orders are so large they ship on a flatbed by themselves, in these cases a freight terminal delivery is not an option.  The product page will state whether this is the case.
