Robinair 17800C Multi-Refrigerant Recovery, Recycle & Recharge Machine

17800C Multi-Refrigerant Recovery, Recycle & Recharge Machine

Servicing equipment that uses different refrigerants can require multiple machines and separate connections, making refrigerant service more complicated. The Robinair 17800C Multi-Refrigerant Recovery, Recycle & Recharge Machine provides recovery, recycling, evacuation, and recharging for multiple medium- and high-pressure refrigerants through one hookup.

The 17800C is designed for applications such as mass transit vehicles, buses, refrigerated trailers, containers, and stationary systems that use refrigerants not typically found in light-duty passenger vehicles. It supports R-12, R-134a, R-22, R-404A, R-407C, R-452A, R-448A, R-449A, and other compatible refrigerant blends, providing a versatile solution for commercial and heavy-duty applications.

With a 5.0 CFM vacuum pump, 18 ft. hoses, 300 lb. recycling filter capacity, and a 50 lb. generic recovery tank with 40 lb. capacity, the 17800C is built for demanding service environments. The machine is UL 1963 certified and compatible with the optional 30038 accessory printer for service documentation.

Forklifts and Lift Gates

All of our Single Post, 2 Post, and 4 Post Lifts* require a forklift (or similar) to unload.  Tire Changers and Balancers and other small items allow for a lift gate service (At no additional charge) Lift gate service will lower your order to street level.  How do I know if a forklift is required? See the drop down options that show when you're attempting to place an order. 

What if I don't have a forklift at my location and my order requires it?

This is a common question and here's some alternatives:

• We can deliver to a local freight terminal near you.  Typically this is within 30-60 minutes away depending on location.  We will find a location - Contact Us
• Do you have a buddy that owns a forklift and we can ship it there?  Does your place of work have a forklift?  Select this location as the delivery address. 
• Warehouse pickup - This is always an option but depends how far you're willing to drive. 
• Rent a forklift - This is the least favorable option but may be necessary.  We always schedule the delivery so this should minimize the days required to rent.

Can I hand unload my order if I don't have a forklift? 

No, sorry, the truck drivers don't allow for this.  2 things: Liabilities and the time it takes to unload - truck drivers can't wait, even if you have an army of help.

Freight Terminals

If you don't have a forklift at your location, we can find you a freight terminal in your area and they will load your trailer onsite.  (Typically 30-60 minute drive away, depending on location) Special note: Some orders are so large they ship on a flatbed by themselves, in these cases a freight terminal delivery is not an option.  The product page will state whether this is the case.
