AIR CONDITIONING REFRIGERANT RECOVERY AND RECYCLING (ACR) STATION SET UP AND REFRIGERANT RECOVERY
The Air Conditioning Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Station (ACR) (J 38100-B) is designed to be compatible with charging station J 23500-01 or its equivalent. The recovery and recycling operations are performed separately with the capability to recycle 136 Kg. (30 lbs.) in one operation. Two 136 Kg. (30 lbs.) capacity reusable tanks are included with the station.
NOTE The Air Conditioning Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Station meets ULOR standards for moisture and contamination removal. Recovery systems which cannot meet these standards are not approved for warranty repairs. Reuse of moisture or particulate contaminated refrigerant will result in premature compressor and other component failure.
CAUTION Always wear goggles and wrap a clean cloth around fittings and connections when doing work that involves opening the refrigeration system. If liquid refrigerant comes into contact with the skin or eyes, injury may result.
^ Before removing and replacing any of the air conditioning refrigeration lines or components, the refrigerant must be completely recovered.
^ Always use service valve and pressure gage sets during evacuation and charging procedures.
^ Do not charge while compressor system is hot.
^ Always check the A/C system for pressure with a manifold gage set to determine if refrigerant is present in system. Performing recovery on an A/C system which is open to the atmosphere as a result of a leak, would allow the recovery station to pull only air into the tank.
CAUTION Never remove a gage line from its adapter when the line is connected to A/C system. Always remove the line adapter from the service fitting to disconnect a line. Do not remove the charging hose at the gage set while attached to service low-side fitting. This will result in complete discharge of system due to the depressed Schrader-type valve in service low-side fitting and may cause personal injury due to escaping refrigerant.
