5. Návod k obsluze
The Mastercool 69100 is designed for straightforward operation. Follow these steps for effective refrigerant recovery:
- Předoperační kontrola: Verify all hose connections are secure and the recovery tank is not overfilled. Ensure the system being recovered is depressurized as much as possible before starting.
- Zapnutí: Flip the main power switch to the 'ON' position.
- Výběr režimu: Select the desired recovery mode (Vapor or Liquid) using the appropriate valve on the unit. For faster recovery, start with liquid recovery if applicable, then switch to vapor.
- Initiate Recovery: Open the valves on the manifold and the recovery tank to begin the recovery process. The unit's 1/2 HP oil-less compressor will start drawing refrigerant.
- Sledovat průběh: Observe the pressure gauges and the sight glass to monitor the recovery process. The sight glass allows you to see the flow of refrigerant.
- Automatické vypnutí: The unit features an automatic low-pressure cut-off switch. Once the system being recovered reaches a vacuum, the unit will automatically shut off, preventing compressor damage and indicating the completion of recovery.
- Purging (if necessary): After recovery, if purging is required to clear residual refrigerant from the unit's internal components, follow the specific instructions on the unit's control panel for the purge procedure.
- Odpojit: Close all valves, turn off the unit, and carefully disconnect the hoses.
