SAFETY INFORMATION!
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING RECOVERY SYSTEM!
1. This equipment is designed to be used by qualified service personnel. The operator of this equipment must be
familiar with air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Do not attempt to operate this equipment until all safety
instructions and operating instructions are read and understood.
2. Always use eye protection (safety goggles) and hand protection (gloves) when working with refrigerants. Other types
of personal protective equipment should also be used.
3. All hoses used for interconnecting system should have shut off valves (manual or automatic) on both ends. Treat
all hoses and connections with caution. Hoses or connections will contain liquid refrigerant or gas under pressure.
Connect and disconnect fittings with caution.
4. Do not pressure test system with air. Some mixtures of air and refrigerant can be combustible or explosive.
5. Recovery tank contains liquid refrigerant under high pressure. Never over fill recovery tank. Tanks should be filled to
a maximum of 80% of capacity only. Use scale and connection to recover tank’s float switch to make sure tank is not
over filled. Recovery system with automatic shut down switch must be connected to recovery tank float switch for
proper operation. Use only approved tanks for refrigerant recovery. An over filled tank can explode causing serious
injury or death.
6. Do not breath refrigerant vapors and/or lubricant vapor or mist. Breathing high concentrations of these substances
will cause severe health problems. Always use Recovery system in a well-ventilated area.
7. Do not use this Recovery System in the vicinity of spilled or open containers of flammable substances (gasoline,
solvents, etc.).
8. If electrical extension cord is used, it must be 14 AWG or larger and 50 feet maximum length. If lower amperage
capacity extensions are used an overheat condition and fire hazard could occur.
9. Make sure system is electrically connected to a properly grounded power source. Always disconnect system from
power source when servicing system.
10. Some governmental agencies require licenses or certification to work with refrigerants and this recovery equipment.
Use this system only if operator has proper license or certification.
11. This recovery system is not to be used with any type of flammable refrigerant or flammable gas.
12. The Recovery System includes a fine screen filter at the inlet port. Since many recovery operations involve transfer-
ring contaminated refrigerants, the recovery system has an inlet in-line filter-dryer installed at the inlet port. Filter
should be changed often or whenever contamination prevents proper operation of recovery system.
DANGER! – EXPLOSION RISK!!!
DO NOT RECOVER FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS
OPERATING GUIDE FOR DIRECT VAPOR OR LIQUID RECOVERY (Refer to fig.1)
NOTE:
A. To prevent moisture from entering filter/dryer, always keep hose and coupler assembled to inlet filter. Whenever hose is
removed from inlet filter, install protective cap on filter/dryer inlet.
B. Connect yellow hose to recovery machine outlet. Valve end of hose is connected to recovery tank. If recovery machine
shuts off due to full tank, close valve in yellow hose, shut off machine, replace and connect empty recovery tank to yellow
hose and restart Recovery Machine. If Recovery Machine does not start refer to Steps 8 and 9.
1. Make sure on-off switch is off (“O” pushed in.) Connect system to grounded power connection.
2. Turn INLET (blue color) valve to CLOSE position. Turn center valve (yellow color) to RECOVER position.
3. Turn OUTLET (red color) valve to OPEN position.
4. Connect blue hose from low side connection system to inlet port filter connection. Connect hose from outlet port of
recovery machine to vapor (gas) connection on recovery tank.
5. Connect float switch cable from recovery machine to recovery tank.
NOTE: Recovery tank must have a maximum capacity switch to prevent over filling of tank. Recovery system will not
