WARNING: Before performing recovery, recycling and recharging procedures, review USING R-134a REFRIGERANT .
NOTE: Tools Required: ACR 2000 Air Conditioning Service Center (J-43600).

The ACR 2000 is a complete air conditioning service center for R-134a. The ACR 2000 recovers, recycles, evacuates and recharges A/C refrigerant quickly, accurately and automatically. The unit has a display screen containing function controls and displays prompts that lead technician through recover, recycle, evacuate and recharge operations.

R-134a is recovered into and charged out of an internal storage vessel. The ACR 2000 automatically replenishes this vessel from an external source tank to maintain a constant 12-15 lbs (5.45-6.82 kg ) of A/C refrigerant.

The ACR 2000 has a built in A/C refrigerant identifier that will test for contamination, prior to recovery and will notify technician if there are foreign gases present in A/C system. If foreign gases are present, ACR 2000 will not recover refrigerant from A/C system.

The ACR 2000 also features automatic air purge, single pass recycling and an automatic oil drain.

For operation and setup instruction of ACR 2000, refer to manufactures manual. Always recharge A/C system with proper amount of R-134a. See SPECIFICATIONS in appropriate MANUAL A/C HEATER SYSTEMS or AUTOMATIC A/C HEATER SYSTEMS article.

If oil was removed from A/C system during recovery process or due to component replacement, oil must be replenished. For proper quantities of oil to add to A/C refrigerant system, see SPECIFICATIONS in appropriate MANUAL A/C HEATER SYSTEMS or AUTOMATIC A/C HEATER SYSTEMS article.
