CFC REFRIGERANT CONSERVATION AND RECYCLING
APPLIED MODELS: All models equipped with air conditioning.
SERVICE INFORMATION:
Because of environmental concerns, it is extremely important that we all take every precaution to reduce or eliminate the release of CFC refrigerant
(R12) into the air.
Recycling Equipment In Your Dealership
If your dealership has not already received one, you will receive a Kent-Moore ACR(3) J- 38100-NI Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling System within
the next few days. This machine will recover the refrigerant from any vehicle you service, clean the refrigerant, remove all moisture and oil, and place
the refrigerant into a 30 lb. container for re-use. To save our atmosphere, you must use the machine every time you perform A/C service that requires a
purge of the refrigerant.
Maintenance Is Essential
If the recycling equipment is maintained properly, it can clean and purify the removed refrigerant so that it will exceed the SAE standards for content of
moisture, oil, air and noncondensibles. Like any equipment, however, this machine will operate at its best efficiency only if it is maintained properly.
This means you must check the moisture indicator often and replace the filter drier core whenever necessary. You must make sure the correct manifold
gauge and hoses are used in all cases, and that the valves in the hoses are working properly. Make sure the unit stays clean and that the hoses are always
hung up away from contamination when the unit is not in use.
