    What is this question heading to? What is the usefulness of knowing the guinness record of refrigerant charge in a mobile air conditioner?

    Just use a standard size recovery cylinder.

    Or check with your competitors equipment to see what they use.

    To be honest I would be surprised to find a car with that much refrigerant in circuit.

    The average is 850g for a vehicle with one evaporator. Vehicles have a sticker in the engine bay as to exact amount required.. mike.

    Hai Brain,

    For your information the volume that i mentioned in my question includes the pipe volume too. As far as the datas i have collected maximum amount of refrigerant in a car is 1.15kg.

    Regards
    Vijay
