Questions & Answers
Have a Question?
-
Is this what I would need to check for leaks during installation?
You can use this to monitor that pressure stays steady, indicating no leaks.
-
does anyone know what the presure should be in a unit ?
You can reference the following chart regarding this: https://www.pdhvac.com/site/downloads/Temperature-Pressure-Chart.pdf
-
Can you charge the system with this?
Yes you can, this would connect directly to the service port and to a vacuum pump or a container of refrigerant.
-
Is there a instructional video or a step by step guide to use this low side Charging Service Gauge Hose Set ?
The blue hose connects to the service port on the unit and then the yellow hose connects to your vacuum pump. The blue hose is 5/16" ready to connect to the outdoor unit. The yellow is 1/4" for most vacuum pumps. The depicted valve isolates the gauge itself. This gauge also comes with a diagram on the packaging box. -
is the fitting on the blue hose a low loss fitting?
It is a flared, threaded connector. The service port uses a Schrader valve so some loss will be inevitable, the amount depends on how quickly it is disconnected.
-
How can I check system pressure with the gauge without opening a path for the refrigerant to leak out? Do I have to connect something to the yellow hose (like a can of refrigerant?
There is an access knob to allow or cut off access past the gauge.
-
How does this gauge administer the leak stop/refrigerant? No button like it says on the can.
It has a knob valve for facillitating access between the bottle and the condenser unit's service port.
