This standard is for R-1234yf recovery (extraction) only equipment for on-site refrigerant recovery from Mobile Air Conditioning (MAC) systems.The purpose of this SAE Standard is to provide minimum performance and operating requirements for equipment used to recover R-1234yf. Recovered refrigerant is to be returned to a refrigerant reclamation facility that will process it appropriately as per AHRI 700 standard, or it may be locally recycled using on-site equipment designed and certified to SAE J2843 standard which will process the refrigerant to SAE J2099 standard. It is not acceptable that the refrigerant removed from a MAC system with this equipment be directly returned to any MAC system without further processing as described.
