Functional description

The refrigerant recovered from the air conditioning system passes 

through the combo  ter to remove suspended particles and 

moisture.

The purpose of the vacuum pump is to generate a vacuum in 

the air conditioning system which removes excess moisture and 

to detect possible leaks in the vehicle air conditioning system.

Used oil is separated from the recovered vehicle refrigerant and 

drained into the used oil bottle.

The vehicle air conditioning system is partly  lled with 

 

UV dye to facilitate the detection of leaks in the event of damage 

to the vehicle air conditioning system.

The refrigerant in the internal refrigerant bottle is used for 

the vehicle air conditioning system.

The purging unit for the non-condensable gases, consisting of 

a temperature sensor, pressure sensor, coil and 

 always 

takes 

 when the internal refrigerant bottle pressure is higher 

than the saturation pressure.
