order with a set of instructions concerning the
equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable
for the recovery of flammable refrigerants. In
addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall
be available and in good working order. Hoses
shall be complete with leak-free disconnect
couplings and in good condition. Before using the
recovery machine, check that it is in satisfactory
working order, has been properly maintained and
that any associated electrical components are
sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a
refrigerant release. Consult manufacturer if in
doubt.
The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the
refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder,
and the relevant Waste Transfer Note arranged.
Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and
especially not in cylinders.
If compressors or compressor oils are to be
removed, ensure that they have been evacuated
to an acceptable level to make certain that
flammable refrigerant does not remain within the
lubricant. The evacuation process shall be carried
out prior to returning the compressor to the
suppliers. Only electric heating to the compressor
body shall be employed to accelerate this
process. When oil is drained from a system, it shall
be carried out safely.
Note: ensure that the body is placed in a dry place
and keep all machine components properly.
