Specifications
For Multiple Refrigerants...
The No. 17800B recovers, recycles,
evacuates, and recharges — all in one
fast, continuous operation through one
hook-up. It’s ideal for refrigerated trailers,
buses, RVs, and other vehicles that use
more than one refrigerant. The CoolTech
Multi is also great for fleet maintenance,
covering a variety of makes and models,
since it has R-12 and R-134a capabili-
ties. In-plant maintenance departments
will find it can handle the different types
of refrigerants used in various systems.
Microprocessor — Controls functions;
prompts lead you through programming,
and also signal when it’s time to change
the filter-drier, vacuum pump oil, and
compressor oil.
Float Chamber — Automatically adjusts
from liquid to vapor for most efficient
recovery.
Electronic Scale — Makes it simple to
recharge to factory specifications; also
weighs recovered refrigerant, and
provides tank overfill protection.
CoolTech Vacuum Pump — 6 CFM
has the capacity to thoroughly evacuate
system, readying it for recharging.
Lockout Panel — Prevents mixing of
refrigerants; rotates to one side for 1/4" fit-
tings and to the other for 1/2" Acme fittings.
Single-pass Recycling — Makes an ini-
tial pass through the filter-drier; additional
recycling can be programmed in case of
compressor burn-out, or other conditions.
Heavy-duty Filter-drier — Removes
moisture and acid from the refrigerant;
can handle up to 200 pounds between
changeovers.
Three sets of charging hoses are included
— one for R-12, one for automotive R-134a
(with field service couplers), and one for
other refrigerants using 1/4" SAE fittings.

Universal Recovery Station
for Contaminated or Mixed
Refrigerant...
With the CoolTech 680, you don’t have
to turn away A/C jobs because the
refrigerant is contaminated.
A recovery-only unit designed for quick-
ly capturing contaminated or unknown
refrigerants, mixtures, and blends,
including sealants. It protects your
recovery/recycling equipment and your
shop’s refrigerant supply.
• Recover into one 50-lb. tank for collec-
tion and off-site disposal (mixtures
and blends cannot be recycled).
• Simple to hook up and operate with
instructions printed on the control
panel for quick reference.
• Other features include air regulator
for compressor air supply; air line
lubricator which prolongs motor life
by supplying continuous lubrication;
and tank pressure gauge.
• Two hoses are included, one with a
1/4" MFL fitting and one with a 1/2"
Acme field service coupler.
Here’s how the CoolTech 680 works:
• Connect service hose (included) to
A/C system’s low-side access port.
• Turn switch to “Start.” Recovery
begins immediately.
• Watch the inlet pressure gauge — it
shows when the system has been
pulled into a vacuum — recovery is
complete.
Includes User Safety Features
• The unit runs on standard (com-
pressed) shop air and the vehicle’s
battery, reducing risk when recovering
flammable hydrocarbons (some
substitute refrigerants contain propane
or butane).
• Tank float switch prevents over filling
of the 50 lb. tank.

IMPORTANT:
Refrigerant collected should not be used in any
A/C system. When the tank is full, send it to a dis-
posal facility.
