Page 14: Storage Cylinder Filling Procedure (Refrigerant Transfer)
9. Storage Cylinder Filling Procedure (Refrigerant Transfer) The purpose of the Refrigerant Transfer mode is to transfer new refrigerant from a storage cylinder into the machine cylinder. Note: The machine refrigerant cylinder which is situated behind the cylinder cover is supplied empty of refrigerant.
Page 15 There are 2 options when transfering refrigerant: 1. To select weight to be transfered, touch the Weight icon ... amount of refrigerant (in gr) to be transferred and by using the keypad select desired… into the machine cylinder and touch Confirm icon. 2.
Page 16 Before transfer process start, the machine will self purge (if required). During the transfer process the machine will display the amount of refrigerant being recovered. This process can be paused by pressing Stop button and abort the function totally by pressing the Stop button again or restart the process by pressing the Start button.
Page 17: Connecting And Testing The A/C System
10. Connecting and testing the A/C system Use the service hose quick couplers to connect the hoses to the A/C system service ports, bearing in mind that BLUE must be connected to the low-pressure (suction) side and RED to high pressure (discharge) side. Important: Before connecting the quick couplers, clean the a/c ports of any foreign material (grease or dust).
Page 18: Recovery & Recycling Mode
11. Recovery & Recycling Mode The purpose of the Recovery & Recycling mode is to recover refrigerant from the air conditioning system, which will condense, purify and store the liquid refrigerant in the unit cylinder ready for re-use. To select Recovery function, touch the Recovery icon. The display shows last used selection (usually operator just confirms 100% selection).
Page 19 … press the start button to start the recovery process NOTE: Machine will NOT START if there is no pressure in the hoses. While analyzing, display will show: If results are good will be printed and the machine will If results are not good machine will abort continue with Recovery process.
Page 20 Once the machine has reached a vacuum of -25 kPa it will enter into recovery pause for duration of 2 minutes to allow for any remaining refrigerant in the A/C system (if any) to boil off. If the pressure in the A/C system increases above 0 kPa the machine will automatically return in to recovery re- run to the remove the rest of the refrigerant which has boiled off in the A/C system.
Page 21: Evacuation Mode
12. Evacuation Mode In the evacuation mode the air and moisture in the air conditioning system is removed and exhausted to the atmosphere. The evacuation mode runs for a predetermined time selected by the operator. To select the Evacuation mode, touch the The display shows last used selection.
