Refrigerant Recovery System—THE
COLLECTOR
Thermo King now has available a refrigerant recovery sys-
tem known as The Collector (TK No. 204-884). This new
unit quickly and easily recovers a variety of refrigerants
from refrigeration and air conditioning systems containing
up to 200 lbs. of refrigerant. Not only is the Collector easy
to use and reliable, it meets and exceeds government regula-
tions, and the Collector is automatic.
• It automatically switches from liquid recovery to vapor
recovery.
• Recovers both liquid and vapor refrigerant from the
system through the same hose connections.
The COLLECTOR
• Is equipped with a low pressure shutoff switch which
automatically stops the recovery process once the sys-
tem exceeds a 10 in. Hg. vacuum.
• Uses an automatic precooling technology to keep the
recovery tank temperatures and pressures low, allowing
for rapid recovery rates.
The Collector can recover R-12, R-22, R-500, R-502, R-507,
R-134a, R-404A and R-401B refrigerants. It is not necessary
to dedicate one unit to each separate class of refrigerant.
Using a simple purging system allows the Collector to be
switched from one unit to the next in just minutes.
