Description
Javac XTR Altima A2L Spark Proof Recovery Unit
Proudly designed and manufactured in Australia, the Javac XTR Altima A2L is officially the fastest recovery unit in its class. Engineered for the modern technician, it features a spark-proof design specifically for A2L flammable refrigerants like R32 and R1234yf, while remaining a true multi-purpose workhorse for standard CFC, HCFC, and HFC blends.
Key Features & Trade Benefits
- V-Twin Oil-Free Compressor: A heavy-duty 3/4 HP twin-head compressor with an electronic starter provides massive recovery speeds without the maintenance of oil-filled units.
- Spark-Proof Safety: Features UL-listed ignition-protected switches and circuit breakers, ensuring total safety when working with A2L flammable gases.
- Superior Heat Displacement: A high-performance integrated condenser with high-power fan-forced cooling ensures the unit maintains peak recovery rates even in extreme Aussie ambient temperatures.
- Comprehensive Control: Built-in manifold with fully enclosed HP and LP gauges. Includes a selectable Automatic Low-Pressure Shut Off with a manual override for total control.
- Tuned Vibration Damping: Engineered to run smoother and quieter on the job site, reducing wear and tear on internal components and making for a better work environment.
Tradie Pro Tip:The XTR Altima features an integrated self-purge function. Never skip this step! Purging the unit between jobs prevents cross-contamination of refrigerants and ensures that no liquid is left in the condenser, which protects the compressor valves for the long haul.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What makes a recovery unit "Spark Proof"?
Refrigerants like R32 and R1234yf are "mildly flammable" (A2L class). Standard recovery units have internal switches and motor components that can create a tiny spark during operation. The XTR Altima A2L uses UL-listed ignition-protected components that are sealed to prevent any potential spark from coming into contact with the refrigerant, making it compliant and safe for A2L use.
Why is a V-Twin compressor better for recovery?
A V-Twin (dual head) compressor provides twice the displacement per stroke compared to a single-head unit. This results in much faster vapour and liquid recovery rates. Because it is oil-free, it also eliminates the risk of oil contamination and simplifies maintenance.
Can I use this for non-A2L refrigerants like R410A or R134a?
Yes. The XTR Altima is a "true multi-purpose" unit. While it is specially rated for A2L gases, it is equally effective (and incredibly fast) at recovering standard CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants including R410A, R134a, R22, and R404A.
