Refrigerant System Recovery
NOTE:
-
Use of a refrigerant center is recommended to carry out recovery, evacuation, and charging of the refrigerant system. If a refrigerant center is not
available, refrigerant system recovery, evacuation, and charging may be accomplished using a separate recovery station, vacuum pump, charging
meter, and manifold gauge set.
-
Leaks in refrigerant system equipment, hoses or gauges can cause a leak in vacuum that may be misinterpreted as a problem with the vehicle
refrigerant system. It is necessary to leak-test all refrigerant system equipment, hoses and gauges on a weekly basis to verify that no leaks are
present.
