Recovery; Recycling And Disposal - Dimplex Edel 200 WATER/3 Installation Manual

d) Perform a «pump down» on the appliance where possible.
e) If it is not possible to vacuum, make a manifold so that the
refrigerant can be removed from various parts of the system.
f ) Make sure the recovery bottle is on the scale before the start of
fl uid recovery.
g) Start the recovery group and operate it according to the
instructions.
h) Do not overfi ll bottles (no more than 80% in volume of liquid
charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of the cylinder,
even temporarily.
j) Once the cylinders have been fi lled correctly and the process
completed, ensure that the cylinders and product are removed
from the site quickly and that all isolation valves on the product(s)
are closed.
k) Refrigerant must not be loaded into another refrigeration system
unless cleaned and verifi ed.

7.6.5 - Recovery

When transferring refrigerant into the recovery bottles, ensure that
only the appropriate bottles are used. Make sure you have enough
bottles to recover the entire system load. All cylinders used are
dedicated to the refrigerant recovered and labeled for it (i.e., special
cylinders for refrigerant recovery). Cylinders must be complete with
pressure relief valve, associated shut-off valves and in good working
condition. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible,
cooled prior to recovery.
• Recovery equipment must be in good working order with all
instructions at hand and must be suitable for recovery of all
refrigerants including, where applicable, fl ammable refrigerants.
In addition, a set of calibrated scales must be available and in good
working order.
• Hoses must be complete with leak-free disconnects and in good
condition. Before using the recovery machine, verify that it is in
good working order, has been properly maintained and that all
associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in
the event of a refrigerant leak. Consult the manufacturer if in doubt.
• The recovered refrigerant must be returned to the supplier in the
appropriate recovery bottle and the transfer note fi lled in correctly.
Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in
recovery bottles.
• If compressors or compressor oils need to be replaced, make sure
they have been vacuum pulled to an acceptable level to ensure
they are not left in the fl ammable refrigerant lubricant. Vacuum
pulling must be done before the compressor is returned to the
supplier. Only electric heating of the compressor body should be
used to accelerate this process. When oil is drained from a system,
it must be done safely.
