Refrigerant Recycling

1. Plug the station into a suitable AC power outlet and turn on the main power switch.

2. Open both valves on the recovery tank.

- For efficiency, recycle full tanks of refrigerant.

3. Turn the "Recycle Start" switch to on. The amber "Recycle On" light will come on and the refrigerant pump will start.

4. Refrigerant will be seen going through the "Moisture Indicator" at start up. If there is sufficient supply of refrigerant, the bubbles will clear after a few seconds. When the bubbles clear from the "Moisture Indicator", the refrigerant is operating at maximum efficiency.

5. Allow the station to operate until the dot in the center of the "Moisture Indicator" turns green. The "Moisture Indicator Dot" should change to the shade indicated on the reference decal. Always run the recycling system a minimum of 30 minutes. If the "Moisture Indicator" starts out yellow, it could take as long as two hours to turn green, depending on the moisture content of the refrigerant.

6. Shut off the station when recycling is complete. This not an automatic function.

Guidelines for replacing the filter drier core:

- For proper contaminant removal, replace the filter drier core after recycling a maximum of 136 Kg (300 lb.) of refrigerant.

- If the moisture indicator does not change to green after two hours of filtering time, the filter drier core is saturated with moisture and should be changed.

- Check the A/C system oil from the accumulator with an acid test kit to determine the acid quantity of the oil.
