REFRIGERANT RECOVERY
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY
(Not All Screens Are Shown)
DO NOT CONNECT SERVICE HOSES TO REFRIGERANT SOURCE UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO .
The RECOVERY process pulls refrigerant into a distillation chamber which has a coil that is heated by compressor outlet gas.
This distills the refrigerant (turns it to gas) and separates liquids and debris from the refrigerant. Refrigerant then passes through the distillation chamber and compressor and is condensed into a liquid before coming to rest in the internal (included
30 Lb) storage tank.
Refrigerant recovery automatically ends when the machine detects that the vehicle’s system is void of refrigerant.
The color display will show the amount (weight) of refrigerant that has been recovered. This information may be printed by touching on the Home Screen.

EVACUATION OF A/C SYSTEM
A/C SYSTEM EVACUATION
(Not All Screens Are Shown)
After all refrigerant has been recovered from the vehicle’s AC system, and the system has been reassembled following any repairs, the AC system must be evacuated.
Within a vehicle’s AC system, any moisture that is present can mix with oil to form “sludge”, while moisture mixed with refrigerant forms hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acids all of which can permanently damage a system. The MX1234
Refrigerant Management Center will “evacuate” (degas and dehydrate) an AC or refrigeration system prior to refrigerant charging. A system that has been properly “evacuated” assures that non-condensable and moisture won’t later harm the refrigerant or refrigerant oil in the system .

2. The charging sequence begins with a 10-minute vacuum leak test. This is an SAE requirement in SAE J2843 (R-1234yf) systems only). If the system passes the vacuum leak test, the machine will charge the system to 15% of the selected charge.
3. Use an electronic leak detector meeting SAE J2913 for R-1234yf to leak test the evaporator(s).
4. The MX1234 will complete the remaining 85% of the charge.
5. Note; During cold conditions, a Heater Blanket (CPS optional accessory # CCXHB) may be wrapped around the Recovery
Tank to assist with charging. If the MX1234 cannot complete a charge due to pressure equalization, it will notify the user to close the high side coupler and start the vehicle.

10 minutes. Then, before draining oil, allow oil to reach room temperature .
If in doubt as to the temperature, use an infrared thermometer to check the housing temperature.
2. Turn MX Machine OFF then REMOVE POWER CORD FROM OUTLET .
3. Place MX Machine series pump over a suitable container for draining oil.
4. Remove Oil Drain CAP, then remove Oil Drain PLUG from drain port. AVOID CONTACT WITH HOT OIL. HOUSING
COMPONENTS MAY BE HOT . Let contaminated oil drain into suitable container. Reinstall OIL DRAIN PLUG.
5. Add fresh Pro-Set Premium Vacuum Pump Oil (by CPS) until level is between the MAX and MIN lines on the pump housing.
PRO-SET® PREMIUM VACUUM PUMP OIL
Pro-Set® Premium Vacuum Pump Oil is an extremely high quality, severely hydro-treated vacuum pump oil and can be used in pumps made by most manufacturers.
Vacuum pump oil should always be clean and free of contaminants such as moisture, acids, vapors, dirt etc., to extend the life of your pump. So, replace the oil at the appropriate interval with Pro-Set Premium Vacuum
Pump oil (available in pints, quarts and gallons).
