components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant
release. Consult manufacturer if in doubt.
• The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the
correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant Waste Transfer Note arranged.
Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders.
• If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have
been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable

process. When oil is drained from a system, this process should be carried
out safely.
