GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Please read, follow and understand the contents of this entire manual, with special attention given to Danger, Warning and Caution statements.

FOR USE BY PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED AND CERTIFIED OPERATORS ONLY. MOST STATES, COUNTRIES, ETC., MAY REQUIRE USER TO BE LICENSED. PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCY.

DANGER: The recovery tank used with this contains liquid refrigerant. Overfilling recovery tank may cause a violent rupture resulting in severe injury or even death. As a minimum, please use a scale to continuously monitor recovery tank weight.
DANGER: EXPLOSION RISK! This unit is not certified as ‘explosion proof’ for explosive rated environments. It is only to be used in normal environments.
DANGER: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD: Always disconnect power source when servicing this equipment.
WARNING: Do not use equipment in the vicinity of spilled or open containers of gasoline or other flammable substances.
WARNING: All hoses may contain liquid refrigerant under pressure. Contact with refrigerant may cause frostbite or other related injuries. Wear proper personal protective equipment such as safety goggles and gloves. When disconnecting any hose, please use extreme caution.
WARNING: TO REDUCE RISK OF FIRE: Avoid use of an extension cord because extension cord may overheat. If you must use an extension cord, use 10 awg minimum.
WARNING: Avoid breathing refrigerant vapors and lubricant vapor or mist. Breathing high concentration levels may cause heart arrhythmia, loss of consciousness, or even cause suffocation. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose, throat and skin. Please read manufacturer’s Material Safety Data Sheet for further safety information on refrigerants and lubricants.
WARNING: Make certain all safety devices are functioning properly before operating equipment.
CAUTION: To avoid cross contamination of refrigerant and potential leakage to the atmosphere, proper hoses and fittings should be used and checked for damage.
CAUTION: To avoid overfilling refrigerant tank, read and follow manufacturer’s recommended filling instructions for refrigerant being recovered.
CAUTION: This equipment is intended for use of one refrigerant at a time. Mixing of different refrigerants will cause your recovered supply of refrigerant to become contaminated. Note: It is very expensive to destroy mixed or damaged refrigerants.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS CONTAINING CLASS

A2, A2L & A3 REFRIGERANTS

The following are additional safety recommendations when servicing refrigeration equipment that contain Class A2L, A2 or A3 refrigerants. These instructions do not replace existing occupational hazard procedures or other regulations that may be required by local,state or federal agencies.

Technicians working on Class A2L, A2 and A3 systems should have detailed knowledge of and skills in handling flammable refrigerants, personal protective equipment, refrigerant leakage prevention, handling of cylinders, charging, leak detection and proper disposal. Additional knowledge of legislation, regulations and standards relating to flammable refrigerants may also be required. Special Certification or licensing may be required on Class A2L, A2, and A3 and refrigerant handling. Check your local occupational safety codes.

The area of service should be marked as Temporary Flammable Zone. This will be 3 meter perimeter around the refrigeration equipment being serviced and should have NO SMOKING and other hazardous signs posted. Local supervisor should be notified of the zone’s existence.

• Aflammable gas detector should be used to monitor air in the Temporary Flammable Zone
• Adry powder or C02 fire extinguisher must be available at service location
• Vacuum pump exhaust may contain harmful vapors. Provide adequate ventiliation
• Asuitable ventilation fan should be used to maintain in the work space at a minimum of 5 air changeovers per hour
• Ensure the refrigeration equipment’s power has been discontinued
• All potential ignition sources within temporary flammable zone must be disabled
• When connecting service equipment (such as vacuum pumps, scales, recovery units) to a power source, the connection must be made outside the Temporary Hazardous Zone
• Check the system to ensure the refrigerant has been properly removed from the refrigeration system being serviced
• Before evacuating a Class A2 or A3 system, the system should be purged with 100% Nitrogen. DO NOT USE AIR
  
  

DANGER-EXPLOSION RISK: Do not mix Class A2L, A2 or A3 refrigerants with air. All precautions must be taken to eliminate mixing of air with flammable refrigerants,including monitoring Recovery Cylinder for air content.

UNIT LAYOUT

IMPORTANT! If recovering Class A2, A2L, or A3 refrigerants, read ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGE 3 OF THIS MANUAL.

1. Thoroughly read this manual on the additional safety procedures required when servicing Class A2 and A3 refrigerant systems.
2. The vacuum pump is shipped without ol in the reservoir. Remove the exhaust / oil fill cap and add oil until it is seen in the middle of the oil sight glass. Re-secure cap.
3. Remove the 1/4″ inlet service port cap, turn on the vacuum pump. After 15 seconds, replace cap back on inlet port.
4. Re-check vacuum pump oil level. Add or remove oil if necessary.

To achieve good final vacuum levels, the oil level should be visually seen through sight glass.

CAUTION: DO NOT RUN THIS EQUIPMENT WITH LOW OR NO OIL. RUNNING THIS EQUIPMENT WITH NO LUBRICATION WILL CAUSE PREMATURE FAILURE.
VACUUM PUMP IS NOW READY FOR USE.

VACUUM PUMP OPERATION

WARNING: Do not operate on systems under pressure.
Damage to the pump may occur.

1. Connect the power cord from vacuum pump to a power supply rating to the unit’s nameplate (top of electrical box).
2. Check oil level in vacuum pump. 1
3. Connect vacuum pump as shown in High Side] Figure – 1 SEvice-Port
4. If pressure is above 2 PSIG, run recovery operation first.
5. Turn ON unit and open manifold valves.
6. Run until the desired final vacuum level is reached.
7. Once final vacuum level is reached, close manifold valves and turn power switch OFF.
   **Vacuum Operation is Complete.

GAS BALLAST VALVE OPERATION: The gas ballast valve helps remove moisture and other condensate vapors that have been drawn into the 2nd stage pump mechanism. Opening the gas ballast valve allows fresh air to enter the 2nd stage mechanism which will reduce the moisture level and allow for deeper final vacuums.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

It is recommended to change the vacuum pump oil after 50 hours of usage. The purity of the oil will determine the final vacuum level achieved. Always use the CPS recommended vacuum pump oil (VPOQ / VPOP / VPOG). The oil provided with the pump has been specially blended to maintain maximum visosity at normal running temperatures as well as cold weather starts.

0IL CHANGE PROCEDURES:

1. Be sure the pump oil is warmed up. if not warm, turn vacuum pump “ON” for 10 minutes.
2. Make sure vacuum pump is not plugged in.
3. Remove the oil drain cap and drain the contaminated oil into a suitable container. Tilt the vacuum pump toward the oil drain port.
4. Once all the oil has been drained, re-secure the oil drain cap back onto the oil drain port.
5. Remove the exhaust / oil fill cap and add oil until it is seen in the middle of the oil sight glass. Re-secure exhaust/oil fill cap.
