VEVOR Portable Refrigerant Recovery Machine, 3/4 HP 120V 60Hz Single Cylinder AC Recovery Machine for Liquid Vapor Refrigerant, 1750 RPM Recycling Unit HVAC for Automotive & Household Air Conditioning

3/4 HP Single-Cylinder Compressor at 1750 RPM for Steady Recovery Output

The 1750 RPM 3/4 HP single-cylinder compressor provides consistent suction for recovering liquid and vapor refrigerant from HVAC and automobile A/C systems. The portable AC recovery machine’s simple design means fewer moving parts and less maintenance over the life of the equipment. Standard 120V 60Hz power; it plugs into any wall socket or generator and requires no wiring.

For most domestic and automobile repairs, you don’t need industrial-scale capability; a 3/4 HP motor will do the job. No slowdown due to tank backpressure. The compressor runs at 1750 RPM throughout the recovery. The continuous output means job times are predictable, making it easier to fit numerous service stops into a single day.

4.9 lbs/min Liquid Recovery Speed for Faster System Evacuation

Liquid recovery maxes out at 4.9 lbs. per minute (2.2 kg/min), flushing household split systems and car condensers faster than smaller units. 6 to 10 lbs of refrigerant in a system will empty in around two minutes, resulting in a short, productive site time. This speed is helpful on hectic days, as every 5 minutes saved adds up.

Vapor-phase recovery is inherently slower because the compressor operates on a lower-density gas. Still, the 3/4 HP motor keeps things rolling without stalling or cycling off during pressure surges. The working temperature range of 32 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit includes standard shop conditions and most outdoor conditions you might encounter on a field call. If you’re a tech working on residential service and automobile A/C, the 4.9 lbs/min flow rate is ideal for speed, and the single-cylinder platform is a good size to handle.

Portable AC Recovery Machine with Multi-Refrigerant A1 Class Support

This portable AC recovery machine works with a wide range of A1-class refrigerants, including R12, R134a, R404A, R407A, R407B, R407C, R410A, and R507. The list includes most of the gases used in domestic air conditioning, heat pumps, commercial refrigeration, and vehicle climate systems in both older and new equipment. Having one machine for all these refrigerants means you don’t have to switch between dedicated machines every time the gas type changes from one call to another.

Standard 1/4-inch SAE inlet and outlet ports enable gauge manifolds and hose sets to connect directly, eliminating the need for adapters or proprietary fittings that are already in most technicians’ toolkits. The broad compatibility also means you can bid with confidence on mixed-refrigerant service contracts, knowing the equipment can handle anything that comes up on the calendar. Whether it’s drawing R410A from a newer mini-split or recovering R134a from a vehicle evaporator, it’s the same machine and the same connections that complete the work.

Dual Dryer Filter and Mesh System for Contaminant-Free Refrigerant

Moisture, acid residue, and small metal particles are common in refrigerant recovered from older or neglected systems and can harm recovery equipment and contaminate storage tanks. A two-stage filtration system keeps impurities out of internal components, including a drying filter that draws in water vapor and a mesh screen that collects solid particulates at the intake. Pulling refrigerant in a clean, dry state protects the compressor, valves, and seals inside the machine while keeping each recovery tank free of pollutants.

Whether you are sending it for professional reclamation or processing it for reuse in another system, the quality of the recovered refrigerant is important. Any moisture left in the recovered gas forms acids that corrode the copper tubing and compressor bearings in the equipment it eventually returns to. This machine controls filtration at the point of recovery, not in post-processing, so every pound that leaves the system has a cleaner baseline before it even hits the tank.

37.7 Bar Auto Shut-Off with Overcurrent and Thermal Overload Safeguards

Precise gauges on the front panel monitor the pressure inside the system. If it reaches 37.7 bar, the machine will immediately shut down the compressor before conditions exceed acceptable working limits. The automatic shutdown is operator-independent, so even during unattended recovery runs or when you get distracted on a busy work site, the machine protects itself from overpressure situations. You get the visual gauge reading and a failsafe that works on its own when the numbers go too high.

On the electrical side, overcurrent protection will trip the motor off if the amperage exceeds the rated capacity, protecting the windings from damage and reducing the risk of fire. A condenser with a cooling fan regulates heat output during extended sessions, keeping the motor and compressor within the safe 32–104°F range even when operating outdoors in warm weather. These three safeguards – pressure shutdown, current limiting, and active thermal management – work together to safeguard the machine from the conditions that most often cause recovery unit failures.

29.5 lb Portable AC Recovery Machine for One-Person Field Service

Ideal for the lone technician needing equipment to pick up, carry, and set up on their own, this portable AC recovery machine weighs just 29.5 lbs and measures 15.7 x 9.8 x 14.2 inches. It fits nicely in a service van compartment, slides under a workbench in the shop, and reaches rooftop units and crawl areas without making transport a two-person task. That small footprint leaves plenty of room in the vehicle for tanks, hoses, gauges, and all the rest required for a comprehensive service call.

And a self-cleaning purge function completes the package, allowing you to flush internal lines between refrigerant types with a single turn of a knob – no nitrogen blowdown, no line disassembly, and no guesswork about residual contamination. The machine packs full working capability into a truly portable AC recovery machine, with dual filtration, automated safety shutoffs, and broad A1 refrigerant support. For freelance HVAC professionals or small-shop businesses serving residential and automotive clients, it handles daily recovery duties without the weight, cost, or complexity of a larger machine.
