A multi-profile adapter assembly is disclosed for connecting a pressurized fluid source to two or more different fittings. The adapter assembly includes an injector connector removably attachable to a hose connected to a pressurized fluid source and including an internal conduit for channeling a flow of pressurized fluid. An inner housing is connected to the injector connector and includes a channel leading to a second opening and a cavity configured to receive an access fitting on an AC system. A one way valve controls flow from the conduit in the injector connector into the inner housing. An adapter is connected to the inner housing and includes a first contour configured to engage with a first fitting and a second contour configured to engage with a second fitting. The inner housing and adapter are movable relative to one another for changing the location of the first contour and second contour.

A jet valve has a medium passage that leads to a discharge opening and that is closable by a sealing element that can be set against a seal seat. The seal seat has a sealing surface in the form of an annular strip. The jet valve has a high service life and is suitable for metering very small quantities.

A valve assembly includes an inlet; an outlet; a valve seat between the inlet and the outlet; a valve member which moves between a first valve member position and a second valve member position; and a solenoid subassembly which allows the valve member to move between the first valve member position and the second valve member position. The solenoid subassembly includes a coil having a coil first end and a coil second end; an armature which reciprocates, based on polarity of an electrical current applied to the coil, between a first armature position which allows the valve member to move to the first valve member position and a second armature position which allows the valve member to move to the second valve member position; a first magnet which latches the armature in the first armature position; and a second magnet which latches the armature in the second armature position.
