Refrigerant Recovery- Full Training 

Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching

@@amaturetechnician8405 you notice In automotive we just have the big dumb machine box (RRR) were you just hook up to hoses press buttons and it does everything for you. Technicians never learn or understand what is happening inside the machine. In residential and commercial HVAC you have nothing more than a pump and you are responsible for hooking it up correctly every time and turning it off and on. In HVAC you are responsible for your safety and measuring the weight of the tank to assure you do not overfill it and cause a hydrostatic problem in the confines of the metal cylinder. In automotive they put a float switch connected to an automatic machine in automotive technician never has to think about safety. In automotive everything is done automatically magically in the big box without having a technician who is really skilled or knowledgeable about anything. In residential and commercial HVAC when your tool breaks and fix it. In the automotive when the tool breaks like the refrigerant recovery recycle and recharge machine (RRR) The automotive mechanic is helpless. Call the Robinair company to come out and fix their tool.

Unfortunately, we do not have any additional documents on that subject. Thank you for watching!

Glad you drink the Kool-Aid of information

@@coldfinger459sub0 good recommendation. I need a walk through on cleaning up recovered refrigerant without great expenditure- any recommendations?

@@Automotive_Solutions for Automotive there are small refrigerant recycling units about the size of a briefcase. They contain oil separator to separate the oil out of the refrigerant stream that is entering. They have either south contain screw in internal filters that you can get for high moisture capacity removal or acid removal depending on what is desired. You can even modify and add different filters on the suction side to do a little bit of pre-filtering and even add extra moisture indicators on your entering refrigerant and leaving refrigerant so you know the before and after affect. Moisture indicators with sightglass before and after filters sometimes even in the middle is something that I have always done since the very first day of introduction of refrigerant recovery and recycling equipment back in 1992. I was taught by my dad when I was young and have always recycled R 12 , R 22 , R 134 , and all single molecule refrigerant. And this is where your refrigerant identifier comes into play as a sure means to confirm you’re recovered and recycle refrigerant is 100% pure refrigerant with no mixed components inside of it. That your refrigerant is 100% air free. Your refrigerant is moisture free. Maybe I’ll do a short video of some very suitcase sized refrigerant recycling equipment that I purchased way back in 1992 I believe I still have one up in storage that I haven’t touched in about two decades. I think I can break that out of storage if it’s still working and maybe even do some simple modifications to show guys who have limited budgets on how to modify them for cleaning the refrigerant a little better and visual vacation that the moisture was actually removed very easy and fast to see. The only expense in our industry a refrigerant analyzer is a must as you may have seen some of the videos I have released on how much contaminated refrigerant I get and you cannot believe how many wrong parts were replaced from other shops and all the time they were fighting their own contaminated refrigerant they were putting back into the systems.

@@coldfinger459sub0 - that's great. Any video, if you get time, would be very interesting. 👍

Pulling vacuum on a recovery tank does not change if its upside down or upright. It only changes if you uses a bigger vacuum pump or bigger vacuum lines.

@@JacksonSystems why did my refrigerant recovery bottle get hot during recovery

it looks like a 3/8 but if you for the best vacuum hose go for the acutools true blu 3/4 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P74DijVrsW8.html

Yes. He said to pull down to 500 microns.

@@rickbraden4272 - there ya go - I missed it! I actually saw it an hour or so later in another video, but...

i could be wrong but he did mention microns and that type of scale may not be that accurate to measure that small of change.

Hi Scott, glad you enjoyed the training. For a better look at all the graphics in this presentation, you can sign up for the on-demand version of the training with this link. jacksonsystems.com/training/refrigerant-recovery-techniques/

The dip tube is there so that you can draw liquid refrigerant from the tank when it is upright, otherwise you have to flip the the tank and connect to the vapor port.

I also feel uneasy about this point. Further clarification is needed.
