Refrigeration System
REFRIGERANT DEFINITIONS
Recover
To remove refrigerant, in any condition, from a
system and store it in an external container, without
necessarily testing or processing it in any way.
Recycle
To clean refrigerant for re-use by oil separation and
single or multiple passes through devices, such as
replaceable core filter-driers, which reduce
moisture, acidity and particulate matter. This term
usually applies to procedures implemented at the
field job site or at a local service shop.
Reclaim
To reprocess refrigerant to new product
specifications (see below) by means which may
include distillation. A chemical analysis of the
refrigerant is required after processing to be sure
that product specifications are met. This term
usually implies the use of processes and procedures
available only at a reprocessing or manufacturing
facility.
Chemical analysis is the key requirement in this
definition. Regardless of the purity levels reached
by a reprocessing method, refrigerant is not
considered “reclaimed” unless it has been
chemically analyzed and meets ARI Standard 700
(latest edition).
New Product Specifications
This means ARI Standard 700 (latest edition).
Chemical analysis is required to assure that this
standard is met.
