VALUE VMG-1-S-L Single Manifold Gauge
The VALUE VMG-1-S-L Single Manifold Gauge Set is an ideal choice for HVAC professionals due to its compatibility with multiple refrigerants like R22, R134a, R407C, and R410A. This tool is equipped with a low-pressure gauge ranging from 30 inHg to 0 and 0 to 550 PSI and a sight glass for easy refrigerant flow monitoring, making it essential for accurate pressure testing and system maintenance.
What is a Manifold Gauge Set?
A manifold gauge set is an essential tool for HVAC operations, including air evacuation, pressure measurement, refrigerant recovery and charging, oil charging, and pressure testing. It helps in maintaining and servicing air conditioning systems efficiently.
Manifold Components Overview
- Low-Pressure Side (Blue):
Contains the manual valve, hose, and gauge. Measures up to 550 PSI for charging and monitoring refrigerants and supports vacuuming and air evacuation from 0 to -30 inHg. - High-Pressure Side (Red):
Equipped with a manual valve and gauge for high-pressure readings within the refrigeration cycle. - Middle Hose (Yellow):
Connects the manifold set to refrigerant supply, vacuum pump, or oil container.
Hoses Specifications
- Color-Coded Hoses:
Blue for Low Pressure, Red for High Pressure, and Yellow for Service. - Standard Working Pressure: Up to 500 PSI
- Factory Test Pressure: Up to 2000 PSI
Sight Glass Feature
The sight glass provides a clear view of the refrigerant flow, allowing for effective monitoring and troubleshooting of system performance.
