    Xlt recovery machines liquid vs vapor

    Just wondering, what is the difference between these two settings? Does the liquid setting just restrict/throttle the inlet more than the vapor setting?

    The liquid setting on the recovery machine throttles refrigerant slowly into the suction port of the compressor thus preventing “liquid-slugging” the compressor.

    The proper procedure for recovering refrigerant is:
    When the Low Pressure Gauge starts going down, during recovery, that is when the selector valve should slowly be turned from Liquid to Vapor setting.
