  1. Connect hoses from Recovery/Recycling/Charging Center (023-00150) to high-side and low-side service valves. See SERVICE VALVE LOCATIONS  under SYSTEM SERVICE VALVES.
  2. Turn equipment on and recover refrigerant according to equipment manufacturer's operating instructions. Allow equipment to operate until refrigerant is recovered. Close inlet valve (if equipped) on refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging center and turn equipment off.
    NOTE: On some applications, refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging center will automatically shut off through use of a low pressure switch. On other applications, refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging center must be manually shut off.
  3. Allow A/C system to remain closed for about 2 minutes while observing vacuum pressure readings. If vacuum pressure reading increases, repeat step  2 until vacuum pressure readings remain stable for 2 minutes. If vacuum pressure readings remain stable for 2 minutes, disconnect hoses from service ports and perform required A/C system repairs.
