*NOTICE: The Acid Test is designed to indicate the nominal Ph ranges present in refrigeration lubricants. Any action or inaction as a result of this test is at the sole discretion of the user. Blue or violet color indicates a nominal Ph of 6.8 or higher, green color indicates a nominal Ph of 6.8 to 5.2, yellow color indicates a nominal Ph of 5.2 or below. Some polyolester lubricants are slightly acidic and may test as acidic due to various additives or manufacturing processes. Contact the lubricant manufacturer for acceptable and expected acid levels. Refrigeration oils containing high levels of acid are dangerous and can burn skin and damage equipment. Handle with extreme care. Disposal should be in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
