Page 2: Introduction
1. Introduction The Ariazone 5001 - Fully Automatic system is a user-friendly tool specifically designed for the automotive air-conditioning technicians, to carry out the following functions: Testing air conditioning system Recover and recycle refrigerant. Electronically gauge amount of refrigerant recovered from air-conditioning system. -

These are used in conjunction with the adjacent membrane switches to select the Ariazone functions. Further, once the mode is in operation the pattern in which the Led’s flash, indicate the activity of the system. These can be viewed from several metres away. - Page 7 12. Refrigerant Cylinder 12 or 25kg is used to store the recovered and purified refrigerant. 13. Cylinder Non-condensable Indicator - A large pressure gauge is mounted on the back upper side of Ariazone unit to indicate to the technician of any non-condensable (air) built up in the storage cylinder.

Page 8: Preparing The Machine For Use
- User's manual - Cylinder strap 3. Place the cylinder (12) on the Ariazone platform (11) and secure it with the strap provided. 4. Check the vacuum pump oil level (8). The oil level should be slightly above the line on the sight glass when the pump is not running. - Page 9 Note that if a valid key was depressed, the Ariazone unit will beep. If an inappropriate selection has been made, i.e. attempting to select a mode whilst another mode is in operation, the Ariazone unit will ignore the key pressed and not beep. 7. Evacuate refrigerant cylinder.

Led constantly on - Printer in line Led blinking - Printer not in line or no paper Led off - Press II. If the problem persists, contact Ariazone International or authorized distributor. Paper width: 57-58mm Max paper thickness: 80 µ... - Page 13 When the selected amount of refrigerant is transferred, close the storage cylinder valve and allow the Ariazone to recover the refrigerant in the service hose (5). Once the function is completed the Ariazone will display the symbol "done" and the amount of refrigerant transferred will be displayed in kg or lb on main display (2).
-
Page 14: Connecting Ariazone 5001Fa To The A/C System
Ariazone 5001 gauges (suction & discharge) are important and useful instruments, the operator should have basic understanding between gauge reading and air-conditioning system operation, in order to correctly diagnose any possible system malfunction. -
Page 15: Recovery & Recycling Mode
When this occurs, the machine will beep once, and the Ariazone will enter the recovery "PAUSE" mode. In this mode, the Ariazone will shut down the recovery function and pause for 3 min., which during this time the recovery mode enunciator will be ON constantly. - Page 16 If at the end of Recovery process a sufficient vacuum has been maintained, the Ariazone will stop, and the display (2) will indicate alternately 'DONE' and the amount of refrigerant recovered will be displayed in (kg or lb) depending on the operator’s selection.
-
Page 17: Evacuation Mode
The Ariazone 5001 system has a unique function that if the evacuation function is selected and there is residual refrigerant in the air conditioning system, greater then 0.6 bar or 9 psi, the unit would detect this condition, whereby it will beep six times to warn the operator. -
Page 18: Oil Or Uv Dye Injection Mode
The purpose of this function is to batch a user-defined quantity of refrigerant oil or UV dye from the oil reservoir (10) on the Ariazone 5001 to the vehicle air-conditioning system. Important: The Ariazone 5001 requires that the air conditioning system has previously been evacuated to a maximum vacuum before this function can be carried out. -
Page 19: Refrigerant Charge Mode
The purpose of the refrigerant charge mode is to batch a user-defined weight amount of refrigerant into the air-conditioning system. Important: Ariazone recommends that the A/C system is always properly evacuated for a minimum time of 30 min and vacuum leak tested, before refrigerant is charged in to the A/C system. - Page 20 Conditions that will prevent refrigerant charging If there is little or no refrigerant in cylinder (12). The operator will not be able to select the desired amount of refrigerant required. If the cylinder (12) valve is closed. If the hand manifold valve (4) is closed. If the A/C system service port Schrader valve is not depressed.
- Page 21 Fig3. Fig 4, select the amount of refrigerant by 'UP' key to increase or 'DOWN' key to decrease the value. Once the desired amount has been selected press the 'START' key. Fig4. Note: Open the hand manifold valves (4) on the console to allow the flow of the refrigerant from the a/c system before making the above selection.

Page 23: Cylinder Air Purge
12. Cylinder Air Purge Every week check if there is non-condensable (air) build up in the refrigerant cylinder. First, measure the ambient temperature. Then read the cylinder pressure on rear gauge (13) and compare it with the temperature pressure chart, affixed to the machine. If the cylinder pressure is higher than the pressure/temperature chart, close vapour valve on the cylinder, disconnect the hose and purge the non-condensable gases (air) from the cylinder through cylinder vapour valve and bring back to the chart values. -
Page 24: Service Procedure
100 Hours Oil vessels Test calibration Ariazone International recommends a record of all services on the machine to be kept. 13.1 Filter Dehydrator Replacement Procedure (a) Power up machine. (b) Select recovery function and allow it to run its full cycle. - Page 25 (a) Place empty cylinder on Ariazone platform (12). (b) Connect the hoses (16 & 17) to the cylinder. (c) Switch ON the Ariazone unit while holding "UP" button until the unit display’s 'TArE'. (d) Release 'UP' key. (e) Wait for sound signal and press the 'START' button.
- Page 26 14.3. Calibrating of the new oil vessel load cell Tare function (a) Place empty recovered oil vessel (b) Switch ON Ariazone unit while holding "UP" button until the unit display’s 'TAr 2'. (c) Release 'UP' key. (d) Press 'START' button after sound signal and display will indicate 'DONE'...
