    Urgent Help Needed!!! Recovering R23



    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.
