JAVAC XTR-ULTRA (XTUL-2) is a compact, twin-speed refrigerant recovery unit built for Aussie tradies who want a light but powerful reclaim solution. At only 8.4 kg, it is easy to carry up ladders and across rooftops while still handling everyday split, ducted and light commercial work.

Use the XTR-ULTRA whenever you need to remove refrigerant from a system before servicing, upgrades or decommissioning. Its oil-free, air-cooled compressor and twin-speed design help you recover liquid and vapour efficiently while keeping your cylinders and vacuum pump cleaner for longer.

Lightweight mid-range recovery for Australian conditions

This unit sits in the middle of the JAVAC recovery range: more capability than a basic portable unit, without the weight and bulk of a large workshop machine. It is a great choice if you:

• Work on domestic and light commercial systems across multiple sites in one day.
• Need a reliable backup unit in your service van.
• Want a recovery machine that is easy to move without sacrificing performance.

Key features

• Built to JAVAC standards: Robust design and components for daily trade use.
• Liquid and vapour recovery: Handles both phases so you can clear systems faster.
• Oil-free, air-cooled compressor: Less maintenance and no compressor oil changes to worry about.
• Compact and value-packed: Great balance of performance, portability and price.
• Multi-voltage option available: Selected configurations can be ordered for different site power requirements.
• Supported by an Australian manufacturer: Local backing for parts, service and technical advice.

Where the XTR-ULTRA fits in the JAVAC recovery range

If you need a complete recovery setup, the XTR-ULTRA works well alongside other JAVAC units for heavier-duty or specialised work:

• Step up to more capacity: For higher recovery rates and a heavier-duty motor, see the Javac XTR Pro Recovery Unit – Sparkproof R32 (XTRC2).
• Work with A2L refrigerants: For R32, R1234yf and other A2L gases in markets that require spark-proof designs, consider the Javac XTR Altima A2L Spark Proof Recovery Unit (XTRC2A2L).

FAQs – JAVAC XTR-ULTRA Recovery Unit

Is the JAVAC XTR-ULTRA suitable as my main recovery machine?
Yes. For most domestic and light commercial systems, the XTR-ULTRA has enough capacity to act as your everyday recovery unit. For larger plant rooms or heavy commercial work, you may prefer a higher-capacity model such as the XTR Pro.

Can it recover both liquid and vapour?
Yes. The XTR-ULTRA is designed for both liquid and vapour recovery, which helps you clear systems more quickly and minimise downtime.

Does the compressor need regular oil changes?
No. The compressor is oil-free and air-cooled, so there is no compressor oil to change. You should still follow normal maintenance checks and keep the unit clean and well ventilated.

How portable is the unit?
At around 8.4 kg and with a compact footprint (320 × 220 × 260 mm), the XTR-ULTRA is easy to carry onto roofs, into plant rooms and in and out of service vehicles.
