6. Foydalanish bo'yicha ko'rsatmalar
The RG3 is designed for straightforward operation. Always refer to the specific instructions for the refrigerant type you are recovering.
6.1. Liquid Refrigerant Recovery
- Ensure all hose connections are secure and valves on the recovery tank are open.
- Turn the "IN" valve on the RG3 to the "LIQUID" position.
- Turn the "OUT" valve on the RG3 to the "OPEN" position.
- Turn on the power switch for the RG3. The machine will begin recovering liquid refrigerant.
- Monitor the gauges. Once liquid recovery slows or stops, proceed to vapor recovery.
6.2. Vapor Refrigerant Recovery
- After liquid recovery, turn the "IN" valve on the RG3 to the "VAPOR" position.
- Ensure the "OUT" valve remains in the "OPEN" position.
- The machine will continue to recover vapor refrigerant. Allow the machine to run until the system pressure reaches a deep vacuum (e.g., -20 to -25 inches of mercury, depending on refrigerant and ambient temperature).
- Once recovery is complete, turn off the RG3 power switch.
- Close the valves on the recovery tank and then on the RG3.
- Carefully disconnect the hoses, being mindful of any residual pressure.

7. Xizmat ko'rsatish
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your RG3 unit.
- Filtrni almashtirish: The inline filter on the inlet port should be regularly inspected and replaced as needed to prevent contaminants from entering the machine. A clogged filter can reduce recovery efficiency.
- Tozalash: Keep the exterior of the machine clean. Use a damp cloth to wipe down surfaces. Do not use harsh chemicals or solvents.
- Saqlash: When not in use, store the RG3 in a clean, dry environment, protected from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- Shlangi tekshirish: Periodically inspect all hoses for cracks, wear, or damage. Replace damaged hoses immediately.
