2.2 Warranty
INFICON warrants the Vortex Dual Refrigerant Recovery Machine to be free from defects of materials or
workmanship for three years from the date of purchase. INFICON does not warrant any machine that has
been subjected to misuse, negligence, or accident, or has been repaired or altered by anyone other than
INFICON.
The compressor is warranted for a period of three years by the manufacturer. To keep this warranty in force,
a filter (included) must be used on the inlet port or hose at all times to prevent particulates from entering the
compressor. Failure to use the included filter will void the compressor warranty.
INFICON liability is limited to repairing or replacing, at its option, a defective machine or part. If a defect
arises, a valid claim must be received by INFICON, with transportation prepaid, no later than thirty (30) days
after the warranty period expires. INFICON will determine whether the machine has malfunctioned due to
defective materials or workmanship.
This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, expressed or implied, whether of merchantability, fitness for
a particular purpose, or otherwise. All such other warranties are expressly disclaimed.
INFICON shall have no liability in excess of the price paid to INFICON for Vortex Dual, plus return
transportation charges prepaid. INFICON shall have no liability for any incidental or consequential
damages. All such liabilities are excluded.
3.0 Setup and Operation

process.

Install the included filter on the inlet. Vortex Dual has a female refrigerant
flare fitting, and connects with male flare fittings.

Do not use an adapter fitting in place of a filter. Use of an adapter fitting
can damage the valves and will void the warranty.
