CAP. 8 - GAS TYPE SWITCHING
8.1 GAS TYPE SWITCHING FROM R134 TO R1234YF
When the MULTIGAS 8500 station leaves the factory, it is ready for the gas R134a and can be
transformed, by applying the specific kit (
MULTIGAS 134 TO 1234 KIT cod. 1010350131XX) to be
ready to receive gas R1234yf. Here below we will briefly outline the procedure that shall be
followed by a technician of Brain Bee authorized service centre in order to transform the

MULTIGAS 134 TO 1234 KIT cod. 1010350131XX
WHEN THE PROCEDURE SHOULD BE APPLIED
When the installation of the MULTIGAS 134 TO 1234 KIT cod. 1010350131XX is required in
order to change the type of gas in the station.
If gas type change is done on a MULTIGAS 8500 station containing gas R134a.
[If gas type change is done on a MULTIGAS 8500 station that has never contained gas R134a, all
you have to do is install the transformation kit following the instructions supplied with it, without
replacing the dryer filter as it is not contaminated by gas R134a. The gas type setting in the
software shall be done before the initial check “First vessel filling (weights and pressure check
included)” then proceed with cleaning.]
