F6-DP OPERATING MANUAL

SETUP AND OPERATION

GETTING STARTED

Review the full contents of this manual before operating the F6-DP�

Failure to follow proper safety precautions can result in personal injury or death�

Do not use the F6-DP unless properly trained in the recovery process�

1Install the included ﬁlter on the inlet� F6-DP has a female refrigerant ﬂare ﬁtting,

and connects with male ﬂare ﬁttings� Ensure the protective plugs are removed

from the ﬁlter�

2Attach the hoses to the ﬁlter�

Do not use an adapter ﬁtting in place of a ﬁlter� Use of an adapter ﬁtting can

damage the valves and will void the warranty�

3Attach a hose from the discharge valve to the recovery tank� Connect other hoses

between system components as shown in Figure 1 on page 9�

4Connect the AC power cord to a circuit protected by an appropriately sized circuit

breaker� If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, make sure it meets the

following conditions:

• Length is not excessive

• Contains a safety ground wire

• Wire size 14 AWG or larger for 115 V (ac) or 1.0 mm2 or larger for 230 V (ac)

Overﬁlled tanks can rupture and explode� When operating in standard recovery or push-pull

mode, it is possible to overﬁll the tank� Use a refrigerant scale to ensure that the tank does not

exceed 80% of its capacity by weight� Check the tank weight before transporting�

Do not allow the F6-DP to recover large amounts of liquid too quickly�

NOTE: During the refrigerant recovery process, when a signiﬁcant amount of liquid is

present and enters the recovery machine too quickly, it can sometimes be

referred to as a “liquid slug” or “slugging�”

A liquid slug can activate the High Pressure shutoff and prolong the refrigerant recovery

process� If the F6-DP recovers large amounts of liquid too quickly (or a liquid slug is present),

a loud knocking will sound from the compressor�

Compressor damage caused by recovering a large amount of liquid too quickly is not covered

by the compressor warranty�

Monitor the recovery process carefully� If the compressor begins to knock:

• Throttle the INLET valve clockwise, or

• Adjust the MANIFOLD gauge valves until the knocking stops.

TM8

JB INDUSTRIES F6-DP OPERATING MANUAL

STANDARD RECOVERY OPERATION

1 Connect all cables and hoses as described in Setup and Operation on page 8�

NOTE: Make sure all connections are tight, and that the cables and

hoses do not interfere with the recovery process (See Figure 1).

2 Make sure the hose connecting the F6-DP to the recovery tank is attached to

the LIQUID port (LP)�

3 OPEN the LP valve on the tank — Keep the VAPOR port CLOSED�

4 Rotate the INLET valve (V1) to CLOSE�

5 Set the PURGE/RECOVER valve (V2) to the RECOVER position�

6 Slowly rotate the LIQUID valve on the MANIFOLD gauge to OPEN� Make sure there

are no leaks�

7 Turn on F6-DP�

8 Monitor the inlet pressure (LP, Low Pressure Gauge) and slowly rotate the INLET valve

(V1) to OPEN�

The compressor may emit a knocking sound if the F6-DP attempts to recover a

signiﬁcant amount of liquid� To prevent damage to the compressor, throttle the LIQUID

valve on the MANIFOLD gauge set, or the F6-DP INLET valve (V1)�

9 Once the liquid has been recovered, transfer the remaining vapor; rotate the INLET

valve (V1) to OPEN� Make sure the LIQUID and VAPOR valves on the MANIFOLD

gauge are OPEN�

Figure 1 - Setup Procedure for Standard Refrigerant Recovery

JB INDUSTRIES

F6-DP OPERATING MANUAL

10 Continue to operate until the LP gauge indicates the required vacuum has been

obtained�

11 Turn off the F6-DP and close the INLET valve (V1) — Wait ﬁve minutes�

If the MANIFOLD gauge indicates pressure has risen above 0 PSIG (0 bar), refrigerant is

still present�

• Open the INLET valve (V1) and turn on F6-DP.

• Run the F6-DP until the required vacuum is reached again.

• Wait ﬁve minutes. Repeat this process until all refrigerant is removed and

pressure is 0 PSIG (0 bar), or less.

12 Immediately purge the F6-DP� Purging is necessary to remove any residual

refrigerant from inside the F6-DP internal components as well as the hose from

the outlet to the recovery tank� Refer to Purging the F6-DP and Figure 2 below�

PURGING F6-DP

1 While the F6-DP is off, rotate the PURGE/RECOVER valve (V2) to PURGE�

See (See Figure 2).

2 Turn on the F6-DP and slowly rotate the INLET valve (V1) to PURGE�

3 Run the F6-DP and monitor the LP gauge until a vacuum of 20 In/Hg (0�7 bar)

or more is achieved�

4 Turn off the F6-DP and immediately close the valves on the recovery tank�

Rotate the inlet valve (V1) to CLOSE�

The hose and the discharge port will contain a small amount of pressurized refrigerant�

Exercise care when removing this hose�

Figure 2 - Setup Procedure for Purging

TM10

JB INDUSTRIES F6-DP OPERATING MANUAL

COOLING THE RECOVERY TANK

The F6-DP can be used to pre-cool (or sub-cool) the recovery tank, if the head pressure is too

high to complete the recovery process� If the ambient pressure is too high, high head pressure

can occur when working with certain refrigerants that have a high vapor pressure�

NOTE: The recovery tank must contain ﬁve pounds or more of liquid,

to allow the pressure differential to develop�

Sub-cooling the tank before starting the recovery process may provide little or no beneﬁt�

If the recovery process stalls because of high head pressure, turn off the F6-DP, close the

hose valves, and reconﬁgure the setup as shown in (See Figure 4).

PUSH-PULL OPERATION

The push-pull recovery method is used to move large amounts of liquid refrigerant� During

this process, the recovery unit pulls vapor from the recovery cylinder and produces a high

pressure discharge gas that pushes liquid out of the HVAC system and back into the recovery

cylinder� Recovery rates above 15 pounds per minute can be achieved when using this

procedure�

NOTE: Do not attempt the push-pull process unless the system contains

at least 15 pounds (7 Kg) of liquid that can be easily isolated�

To prevent overﬁll, use the scale to make sure the tank does not surpass 80% capacity

by weight� Monitor the tank weight carefully as 80% capacity maybe reached quickly during

push-pull due to its rapid transfer�

Connect the refrigerant hoses (See Figure 3). A sight glass, not included, can help determine

when the liquid has been transferred and vapor remains�

Figure 3 - Setup Procedure For Push-Pull Method

11

JB INDUSTRIES

F6-DP OPERATING MANUAL

1 Rotate V2 on the F6-DP to RECOVER and open the LIQUID and

VAPOR valves on the cylinder�

2 Turn on the F6-DP�

3 Rotate V1 to OPEN�

4 On the cylinder, throttle the ﬂow of liquid by slowly closing the LIQUID

valve to achieve a minimum pressure differential of 100 PSIG (0�7 MPa, 7 bar)

between the LP and the HP gauges�

NOTE: To prevent the HP cutoff switch from actuating, do not allow the

HP gauge to exceed 550 PSIG (3�8 MPa, 38 bar)�

5 Once the recovery tank is cold, turn off the F6-DP and reconﬁgure the

setup for standard recovery� Repeat as needed�

SPECIAL OPERATING NOTES

During standard operation, the High Pressure switch will reset when the head pressure drops

below approximately 425 PSI (2�9 MPa, 29 bar), and the F6-DP will restart automatically�

Figure 4 - Setup Procedure for Sub-Cooling Method

TM12

JB INDUSTRIES F6-DP OPERATING MANUAL

MAINTENANCE

With minimal but important maintenance, the F6-DP can provide many seasons of reliable

service� After each use, clean the F6-DP with a damp cloth to remove dirt and oils�

Do not use gasoline or other hazardous solvents to clean F6-DP; this can damage the

plastic enclosure� Standard household detergent or isopropyl alcohol may be used, but

do not allow liquid to penetrate the outer case�

Make sure the inlet and discharge ports are protected during transit and storage; keep the

inner diameter and the outer threads clear and clean�

NOTE: For best results, leave the ﬁlter connected to the inlet port,

and change the ﬁlter regularly�
