There are some very vital tips worth consideration before engaging in refrigerant recovery. Understanding the system to be recovered is of great importance. Before engaging in the process, you should ensure that you are well conversant with the system in order to do it properly.
The first step entails removing the liquid and any vapor out first. The liquid and the vapor are removed from the bottom access ports where the liquid normally accumulate in. If the liquid is not removed, then the recovery process will be slower as compared to when they are removed.
Hoses and valves also play a significant role in the process. The size and the length of the hose affect the speed. The system with a larger hose will reduce the friction on the flow of the refrigerant hence increasing the speed of the process.
The shorter the hose, the higher the pressure hence increasing the speed for the process. On the other hand, the longer the hose, the lower the pressure hence reduces the speed of the process. It is therefore advisable to use a shorter and a larger hose in order to ensure that the process is faster.
A shorter hose will ensure that there is no reduction in the pressure hence the process will be conducted faster. On the other hand, if a longer hose is used, there will be a reduction in the pressure hence the process will be slower. A wider and a shorter hose therefore is recommended if one is interested in ensuring that the process is faster.
It is also necessary to highlight some of the recovery methods. There are three methods frequently used. The first one is known as push pull method. The second one is known as liquid method while the third one is known as vapor method.
Also of importance to note are the various available methods for conducting the recovery. Firstly, there is the push and pull method. Secondly is the liquid method while lastly is the vapor method. Application of these methods depends on the type and size of the system undergoing the process.
Liquid method on the other side is preferred for using in systems which do not have oil compressors. It is also preferred where the system is capable to recover the liquid. On the other hand, vapor method entails using an additional hose. The additional hose is placed in between the machine for recovery and the storage tank. The vapor is then passed through the added hose then it is being cooled after passing through the compressor. Therefore it is important to note that the methods are suitable to be used in different systems. The above tips are essential in carrying out refrigerant recovery.
