- Întrerupător: Pornește și oprește unitatea.
- Circuit Breaker/Reset: Provides electrical overload protection.
- Conexiuni furtunuri: Standard fittings for refrigerant hoses.
4. Configurare
Follow these steps to prepare your ROREC unit for operation:
- Despachetarea: Scoateți cu grijă unitatea din ambalaj. Verificați dacă există deteriorări în timpul transportului.
- Plasare: Place the unit on a stable, level surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Ensure adequate clearance around the unit for airflow.
- Conexiune electrică: Connect the power cord to a grounded 230V AC, 50/60Hz electrical outlet. Verify the power supply matches the unit's requirements.
- Conexiuni furtunuri: Connect the appropriate refrigerant hoses from the system to be serviced to the 'INPUT' port of the recovery unit, and from the 'OUTPUT' port to the recovery tank. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.
5. Instrucțiuni de utilizare
This section outlines the general procedure for refrigerant recovery. Specific procedures may vary based on the refrigerant type and system configuration.
- Preparare: Ensure all safety precautions are observed. Connect the unit as described in the 'Setup' section. Open the valves on the recovery tank.
- Pornire: Turn the main power switch to the 'ON' position. The unit should start.
- Valve Settings: Set the 'INPUT' and 'OUTPUT' valves on the unit to the 'RECOVER' position.
- Monitor Recovery: Observe the pressure gauges. The input pressure should gradually decrease as refrigerant is recovered from the system. The output pressure will indicate the pressure in the recovery tank.
- Liquid/Vapor Recovery: The unit is capable of both liquid and vapor recovery. For faster recovery, especially with large systems, start with liquid recovery if the system allows.
- Finalizare: Recovery is complete when the input pressure gauge reads a vacuum (typically -0.5 to -0.8 bar, depending on refrigerant and ambient temperature) and no more refrigerant is being transferred.
- Purging (Self-Cleaning): After recovery, set the valves to the 'PURGE' position to clear any remaining refrigerant from the unit's internal components. This prevents cross-contamination between different refrigerants.
- Oprire: Once purging is complete, turn the power switch to 'OFF'. Close the valves on the recovery tank and disconnect hoses.
6. Întreținere
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your recovery unit.
- Înlocuirea filtrului: The unit may contain an internal filter/dryer. Consult the specific product documentation or Rothenberger support for recommended replacement intervals and procedures. A clogged filter can reduce recovery efficiency.
- curatenie: Keep the exterior of the unit clean. Use a damp cloth to wipe down surfaces. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents. Ensure ventilation grilles are free from obstructions.
- Inspecția furtunului: Regularly inspect all refrigerant hoses for cracks, wear, or damage. Replace any compromised hoses immediately.
- Depozitare: When not in use, store the unit in a clean, dry environment, protected from extreme temperatures. Utilize the integrated storage compartment for hoses and the power cord.
