[Chrysler300] A/C conversion marking

I agree and am wondering if there is some sort of tag or stamping required on older compressors when converted. I’m pretty sure the fill and monitoring port connections are changed out when the conversion is made and that should signal any qualified technician, minimize mixing refrigerants or using the wrong gauges and charts.

My system was converted by a licensed technician and has no noticeable markings. It would be easy, neat and safe to “X-out” the 2 in the 12 and add “34”. A caution sticker on the radiator support might be appropriate.

At the end of the day, there should be zero risk to owner/operator/technician due to a conversion. Proper marking might trump originality.

Mark and all. We have a winner. The link below and Ebay are identical and the same as on my 64 K. I would have guessed that this was a wild dream., but I was wrong. This works for 62-75 or so. Would have to check earlier cars to see what else is available. John Holst...

John and all – the tag is reproduced and is on ebay as well as oother sites. Note there are several styles (depends on the year). Pay attention to the â€œmax chargeâ€ values. The reproduction tags have the orange color lettering. These are correct for perhaps â€™65 up (not sure of start year). 1962 and 1963 had red lettering. A later style is better than a missing tag IMHO.

A club member has asked if there is a source of the metal plate attached to the top of the A/C compressor. We have found the other decals for the engine (air cleaner and coolant) but this is different and probably would have to come off a donor car. Any ideas? John Holst...

Do you no where to get the air conditioning spec psi plate?
