Refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment is used to remove
refrigerant from vehicle's A/C system without polluting atmosphere. To
remove and recycle refrigerant, connect the recovery/recycling system
and follow instructions provided with the system.
The removed refrigerant is filtered, dried and stored in a
tank within the recovery/recycling system until it is ready to be
pumped back into the vehicle's A/C system. With refrigerant stored in
the recovery/recycling system, A/C system can be opened without
polluting atmosphere.
NOTE: Separate sets of hoses, gauges and refrigerant
recovery/recycling equipment MUST be used for R-12 and
R-134a based systems. DO NOT mix R-12 and R-134a
refrigerants, as their refrigerant oils and desiccants are
not compatible. On systems with R-134a refrigerant, use
Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) wax-free refrigerant oil.
