Dear guys,

I need to recover R23 (with synthetic oil) into a recovery cylinder.
Can I use a normal recovery unit?

If NOT what is the proper procedure?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks a lot.
Cheers

Depends on the quantity to be recovered but, use a recovery cylinder that has a good vacuum on it to suck the gas out.

Good point Charlie I really should have highlighted that.
