Automotive A/C Service Kit Overview
This kit combines high-vacuum performance with precision pressure monitoring, essential for both automotive and residential HVAC maintenance.
1. Refrigeration Vacuum Pump (VP215N)
The VP215N is a professional-grade 2-stage rotary vane pump designed to remove moisture and non-condensable gases from A/C systems.
- Ultimate Vacuum: 15 Microns (ensures complete moisture removal).
- Flow Rate: 45L/min.
- Anti-Oil Demister: Prevents oil mist from exhausting into the workspace.
- Connection: 1/4" SAE Intake.
2. 4-Valve Refrigeration Manifold Set (HMG4R410AII)
This manifold acts as the control center, allowing for simultaneous connection of the vacuum pump and refrigerant tank without swapping hoses.
- 4-Valve Block: Enables faster transitions between evacuation and charging.
- Sight Glass: Provides a visual window to check refrigerant flow and clarity.
- Gauges: High and Low pressure, color-coded for safety and accuracy.
- Hoses: Three 91.4 cm (36") charging hoses included.
