Product Usage Instructions

Recovery Mode:

  1. Connect hoses correctly and tight by referring to the connection diagram.
  2. Open the vapor and liquid valves of the manifold gauge.
  3. Loosen the connecting hoses of the refrigerant tank.
  4. Open the valve to the hoses.

Start Operation:

  1. Turn the switch to position START.
  2. Press the button.
  3. Turn the switch to position 2 to start purging the air out of the hoses.
  4. When the input gauge reaches 15 of vacuum (-1 bar), switch to position 3 for self-purge.
  5. Once the input gauge reaches 15 (-1 bar) again, switch to position 0 to finish self-purge.
  6. Tighten the hoses at the refrigerant tank.

Finish Operation:

  1. Press the button.

Self-purge Mode:

The unit must be purged after each use to prevent component damage and environmental pollution.

Ready for Operation:

  1. The unit stops automatically when recovery is finished.
  2. Press the button.
  3. Turn the switch slowly to position 3 to start purge.
  4. When the self-purging cycle is finished, the unit goes into a vacuum.

Finish Operation:

  1. Turn the switch to position 0.
  2. Press the button.
  3. Close the check valve to hoses.
  4. Turn off the vapor valve of the refrigerant tank.

Liquid Push/Pull Mode:

An electric scale is needed to monitor the recovery process and prevent overfilling.

Ready for Operation:

  1. Connect the hoses correctly and firmly by referring to the connection diagram.
  2. Make sure all valves are closed.

Start Operation:

Warning: When the electric scale shows that the refrigerant in the tank has reached 80% capacity, turn off the power and close the tank valves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How often should I purge the unit?

A: The unit must be purged after each use to prevent damage and environmental pollution caused by remaining liquid refrigerant.

Q: What should I do if compressor slugging occurs during operation?

A: If compressor slugging occurs, turn the switch to the appropriate position as indicated in the manual until slugging stops. Ensure pressure is at zero before proceeding.

FIG-3

Ready for operation

  1. Connect hoses correctly and firmly. (Please refer to the connection diagram)
  2. Make sure all valves are closed.
  3. Turn off the power to system equipment.
  4. Open the vapor and liquid valves of refrigeration or air conditioning system equipment.
  5. Open the vapor valve of the refrigerant tank.

Start operation0

  1. Turn the switch to the position START.
  2. Press button.
  3. Open the liquid valve for liquid recovery. Open the vapor valve for vapor recovery.
  4. Turn the switch slowly to positon 2 for faster recovery.
  5. When the recovery is finished, the unit gets to the required vacuum or automatically stops by low pressure protection.

Notice

  1. If compressor liquid slugging occurs at position 2, turn the switch to position “START” until the liquid slugging stops.
  2. If the recovery restarts after interruption of power or fails to start,
  3. Turn the switch to positon START, turn on the power switch, press START button for liquid recovery.
  4. Turn the switch to position 3,turn on the power switch, press START button for vapor recovery

Notice

  1. Turning the switch to position 1 gets a stable recovery of liquid with low speed of 1.2kg/Min.
  2. If compressor slugging occurs at the position 1 turn the switch slowly to position START until slugging stops. Make sure the pressure is at zero, because it doesn’t work at 10.
  3. There is no need to turn off the power and it can do the self-purge cycle automatically.

Self-purge Mode

Notice

The unit must be purged after each use; Liquid refrigerant remained may expand and damage the components and pollute the environment.

Ready for operation

  1. The unit stops automatically when recovery is finished.
  2. Press button.
  3. Turn the switch slowly to position 3 to start purge.
  4. When the self-purging cycle is finished, the unit goes into a vacuum.

Finish operation

  1. Turn the switch to position 0.
  2. Press button.
  3. Close the check valve to hoses.
  4. Turn off the vapor valve of refrigerant tank.

Troubleshooting

FAULT CAUSE SOLUTION
Fan no response Mechanical damage 1.Replace the fan 2.Factory service

required

Compressor not start (Jammed)

|

1. External pressure is too high

2. Motor failure or other components damaged

| 1.a.When recover the liquid,

turn the knob to “SRART” positon, then restart

b.When recover the vapor turn the knbo to “PURGE” / “3” position,then restart

2.a.Replace the components

b.Factory service is needed

Press the “ ” button but compressor no respense

| 1.a.Shut off by high pressure protection, red alarm light turns on.

b.Low pressure protection,green alarm light turns on(recovery not finished)

c.80%O.F.P. cable not well connected with tank.

2.The “ ” light is not bright,Internal wiring falut.

|

1.a.Lower the pressure of the unit b.Check if the hoses are well connected c.Check the connection

2.a.Be checked by qualified technician b.Factory service required

Compressor start but stops within a few minutes

| 1. High prssure shut off due to wrong operation,such as:

Outlet valve not open, Refrigerant tank valve not open

2. Motor thermal protector shuts off 3.Circuit breaker shuts off 4.a.80% over filling protection

red alarm light turns on b.Recovery is over and the unit is

under low pressure protection,green alarm light turns light

c. Overload during liquid recovery,red

alarm light goes out after a flash

|

1. Read carefully the OperationManual and follow the instructions while operating

2. The compressor will restart automatically after a few minutes

3. Cooling the Circuit breaker dowm and press “circuit breaker” to restart after 5 minutes.

4.a.Replace with an empty recovery tank b.Refer to step of self-purge method c.Turn the knob to “START” position,

then restart

Low recovery speed

|

1. The pressure of refrigerant tank is too high

2. Piston ring of the compressor is damaged

| 1.Cool the tank down can help bringing down the pressure

2.a.Replace the components b.Factory service required

Unit doesn’t pull out a vacuum

|

1.Connecting hoses are loose 2.Leakage in the unit

| 1.Tighten the hose connections 2.a.Replace the components

b.Factory service required

Warning
It’s not suitable for class A3 refrigerants and toxic refrigerants of class B2,B3.
