YELLOW JACKET 95760 Refrigerant Recovery Machine, 1/2HP, 115V

YELLOW JACKET 95760 refrigerant recovery machine is employed in HVAC and refrigeration service to safely and efficiently recover refrigerants from systems. It is ideal for technicians involved in refrigeration and HVAC system maintenance to capture and recycle refrigerants, preventing their release into the atmosphere.

Working Mechanism:

• Refrigerant recovery machine works by letting users easily switch between liquid and vapour modes using a single valve. It has a built-in compressor that's protected against liquid refrigerant for safety. The machine automatically shuts off at a specific vacuum level (13 or 15 inches, depending on the unit) and restarts when pressure rises, ensuring safe operation. It is compatible with various refrigerants and requires connection hoses and a recovery tank for a complete process. The machine meets industry standards, holding ARI certification for reliable and compliant refrigerant recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Why is it necessary to recover refrigerants?

A. Refrigerants play an essential role in the heat transfer process that allows air conditioning and heating systems to function. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) and hydrofluorocarbons are some of the most commonly used refrigerants (HFCs).

Q. What are the three methods of refrigerant recovery?

A.

• Vapor recovery, the push-pull method, and the liquid recovery method are the three different recovery methods.
• Vapour Recovery: In the vapour recovery method, the refrigerant is eliminated from the HVAC system in a vapour state. The recovery unit then condenses the vapour into a liquid and transfers it to the recovery cylinder.
• Push-pull Recovery: This method is used to transfer large amounts of liquid refrigerant. The recovery unit extracts vapour from the recovery cylinder and generates high-pressure discharge gas which forces the liquid out of the HVAC system and back into the recovery cylinder.
• Liquid Recovery Method: In the liquid recovery method, refrigerant is transferred while still in the liquid state. Recovering liquid is suitable for recovering large amounts of refrigerant.

Q. What are the most common applications for refrigerants?

A. To keep production running, refrigerants are used to cool down large data centres and electricity production warehouses. R407C, R410A, R1234ze, and R134a are common refrigerants used for this purpose.

Q. How to set up this YELLOW JACKET 95760 refrigerant recovery machine?

A.

• Firstly, place the machine on a stable surface.
• Install a clean filter screen or filter / dryer to the inlet fitting.
• Connect a hose from the liquid port of the recovery cylinder into the outlet fitting on the unit.
• Connect a hose from the outlet port of a manifold gauge set to the inlet fitting on the unit through the filter / dryer.
• Connect a hose from the selected system's liquid side to the liquid (low pressure) side of the manifold gauge set.
• Connect a hose from the system's vapour side to the vapour (high) side of the manifold gauge set.
• Close all the inlet & outlet valves and place the cylinder on a weighing scale to prevent its overfilling.

Q. What type of cylinders are required for YELLOW JACKET 95760 refrigerant recovery machine?

A.

• The selected cylinder should be an authorised, refillable refrigerant storage cylinder specs.
• Robinair recommends using 400 psi (27.6 bar) cylinders or at least a 350 psi (24.1 bar) cylinder.
• Closed cylinders should be filled up to 80% of their volume to prevent personal injury & equipment damage.
• Recovery cylinders & filter / dryers should be used with only one refrigerant type.
• Refrigerant cylinders should be stored in a cool, dry place.
