4. Safety Information

WARNING: Pressurized refrigerant may be present in A/C systems. Always follow the safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer of your A/C recovery, recycle, and recharge station. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or equipment damage.

• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling refrigerants and A/C system components.
• Ensure the A/C system is properly depressurized before attempting any filter replacement or maintenance.
• Refer to your equipment's instruction manual for specific safety procedures related to filter replacement.

5. Installation

The VORGENS 34430 A/C Recycling Filter is designed for simple installation. Always consult your specific A/C recovery, recycle, and recharge station's instruction manual for detailed, model-specific filter change procedures.

General Installation Steps:

1. Ensure the A/C recovery station is powered off and disconnected from any power source.
2. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to safely depressurize the system and isolate the filter drier.
3. Carefully remove the old filter drier. Be prepared for any residual refrigerant or oil.
4. Inspect the area for any debris or damage. Clean as necessary.
5. Install the new VORGENS 34430 A/C Recycling Filter, ensuring proper orientation (refer to the flow direction indicated on the filter label, if present, or your equipment manual).
6. Secure all connections according to your equipment's specifications.
7. Perform a leak check on the system before resuming operation.
8. Follow your equipment's manual for system evacuation and recharging procedures.

6. Operation

Once the VORGENS 34430 A/C Recycling Filter is correctly installed, the A/C recovery, recycle, and recharge station can be operated according to its manufacturer's instructions. The filter works passively to clean the refrigerant as it passes through the system.

• Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free before starting any A/C service procedure.
• Monitor the system's performance and any indicators on your A/C station that suggest filter saturation or reduced efficiency.

7. Maintenance

Regular replacement of the A/C recycling filter drier is crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of your equipment and the vehicle's A/C system. The filter's ability to remove moisture and acids diminishes over time and with use.

• Replacement Schedule: Replace the filter regularly, or when a moisture indicator suggests a wet condition, or after recovering 300 lbs of refrigerant (whichever occurs first). Always follow the filter change procedure in the appropriate instruction manual for the unit being used.
• Signs of a Saturated Filter: Reduced recovery speed, incomplete evacuation, or a visible change in the moisture indicator (if your equipment has one) can indicate a saturated filter.

8. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your A/C recovery, recycle, and recharge station after installing the filter, consider the following general troubleshooting steps:

• Reduced Flow/Slow Recovery: Check for proper filter installation and ensure there are no blockages in the lines. A saturated filter can also cause reduced flow.
• System Leaks: Re-check all connections for tightness. Use a leak detector to pinpoint any refrigerant leaks.
• Moisture/Acid Contamination: If moisture or acid indicators persist after filter replacement, ensure the system was properly evacuated and that the new filter is not faulty.
• Equipment Error Codes: Refer to your A/C station's manual for specific error codes and their resolutions.

For complex issues, it is recommended to consult a qualified A/C technician or contact VORGENS customer support.
