Meziere recovery tanks are designed to catch overflow liquid and purge air out of your system during heat cycles. This enables the system to stay completely full of water and greatly reduces the amount of maintenance reqired for your cooling system.
Recovery System Info
:
Keeping the system
full reduces aeration and
maintains pressure. As the
temperature increases the
water expands and pressure
builds. If the system is
completely full the expansion
pressure will exceed the cap
pressure and over flow into
the recovery tank. If your
pressure cap is properly
located, on the low pressure
side of the system, air is
pushed out first. When the
system cools a vacuum is
created. When your radiator
cap is equipped with a valve
that opens under negative
pressure it will draw coolant
back into the system. The
tube that extends to the
bottom of the recovery tank
transfersthe coolant back to
the radiator. Mount the tank
as close as possible to the
pressure cap. The line should
be short and level, reducing
restriction and the effect of
gravity. If the recovery tank
is kept 1/3 full (with the
engine cold) every heat cycle
will automatically purge more
air out of the system. The
opposite is true without a
recovery system or with an
improper pressure cap
location. With every heat
cycle water will be pushed
out, leaving more air space.
This air space can be
compressed lowering the
boiling point.
