Description
Built for Aussie techs who want speed and accuracy. The Imperial 682CKPC is a trade-grade, 4-valve manifold from the renowned 800 Series that helps refrigeration and A/C pros pull deeper vacuums faster and diagnose with confidence. If you’re sick of slow pull-downs and fiddly line swaps—this unit is a ripper.
Key Features & Trade Benefits
- 3/8″ Vacuum Port + Oversize Passages — Evacuate up to 4× faster than ordinary manifolds, saving time on every call-out and reducing overtime.
- True 4-Valve Efficiency — Dedicated vacuum, low, high and refrigerant lines mean no line-swapping, fewer mistakes, and smoother workflows on site.
- Deep Vacuum Valve Design — Diaphragm-type, soft-seat valves go full open/close in one turn for consistent, leak-tight performance during evacuation.
- Precision Analog Gauges with Boots — Colour-coded, shock-resistant faces hold steady under vibration, so readings stay accurate on rooftops and plant rooms.
- Ergonomic, Non-Slip Handles — Positive feel even with oily gloves—no worries when you’re working fast.
- Swivel Hanger — Keeps the rig tidy and readable when space is tight.
Why This Product Matters
When you’re up on a roof in 40-degree heat chasing a moisture issue, minutes matter. The 682CKPC’s 3/8″ vac port and oversize internal passages move more vapour and non-condensables, so you hit target microns faster and get off the roof sooner. One seasoned chiller tech told us he swapped to this body and shaved bloody good time off every evacuation—fewer call-backs, happier customers.

Pro Tip
Pair the 3/8″ vacuum port with a proper 3/8″ vac hose and remove cores where safe to do so. You’ll reduce restriction and reach target vacuum faster, especially on larger pipe runs.
Compatibility & System Info
- Refrigerants: R22, R410A, R407C (gauge scales/porting are set for these gases)
- Ports: 1/4″ SAE hose connections; 3/8″ dedicated vacuum port
- Use Cases: Residential and light commercial refrigeration/A/C service, split systems, packaged units, and small racks within the stated refrigerant set
- Note on R32: For R32 work, use R32-rated hoses and equipment; if you need R32 saturation scales, select a manifold or digital gauge with the correct temp/pressure tables.
Local Jobsite Reality (AU)
In humid Brisbane plantrooms and breezy Sydney rooftops, flutter-resistant gauges and quick, one-turn valves make the difference between a smooth vac and a dragged-out service call. The 682CKPC keeps readings steady and workflows simple—she’ll be right.

FAQs
Will a 3/8″ vacuum hose actually make a difference?
Yes—bigger internal diameter reduces restriction and speeds evacuation. Consider the Imperial 560FTY 3/8″ Vacuum Hose (60″) for best results.
Does this manifold include hoses?
No—this listing is manifold only. For R410A mini-splits with 5/16″ service ports, grab a 60″ hose set that adapts 1/4″ to 5/16″ such as Imperial 855MRS.
Is it suitable for digital gauges or only analog?
The 682CKPC body ships with analog gauges, but it works alongside digital measurement tools if you prefer logging and superheat/subcool calculators.
Is this the best 4-valve manifold for R410A?
For many techs, yes—especially if evacuation speed is your pain point. If you want an all-in-one kit with hoses, see the Imperial 800 Four-Valve Manifold Kit.
