INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION

Purpose

• The purpose of this instrument is to accurately measure small pressure variations within a vacuum. It is a digital vacuum gauge that allows you to monitor the vacuum evacuation process in precision cooling systems and heat pumps, particularly during the debugging phase.
• By utilizing this instrument, you can obtain real-time pressure readings during the evacuation of the refrigeration system, thereby gathering valuable information about the degree of moisture removal and elimination of contaminants such as oil and external gases
• The digital vacuum gauge is intended to be used in conjunction with a vacuum pump to create the vacuum environment. It is often paired with refrigerant gauges (analog or digital) to provide comprehensive monitoring of the cooling system.

Overview of the control buttons

STANDARD MODE AND MONITORING MODE

• By default, the device starts in normal mode. To enter the monitoring mode, short press the “ ” button, and press it again to exit the monitoring mode.
• In the monitoring mode, the screen displays a flashing SET indicator, and the buzzer emits a single beep every three seconds, with a frequency cycle of 1Hz.

How to set pressure alarm values?

• Regardless of the mode (monitoring or standard), press and hold the “ ” button to access the pressure value setting interface. In this interface, the SET indicator remains on, and the screen shows six zeros “000000”, with the decimal point positioned based on the selected unit. The rightmost zero starts flashing. To navigate through the numbers, press the “ ” key. Adjust the numbers from 0 to 9 using the “ ” key. The valid range for settings is 0~99kPa. Long press “ ” again to save the settings and exit.

Attention:

• Ensure that the set range does not exceed the maximum measurement range. For instance, if you choose kPa as the unit, the highest permissible setting is 99 kPa.
• If you input a pressure value beyond the established range, an error message “Error” will be displayed on the screen after saving the setting by long-pressing the “ ” key. In such cases, the set pressure value becomes invalid and requires reconfiguration.

Precautions:

• After exiting, the device remains in Standard mode, please remember to press the “ ” key again to re-enter the monitoring mode. If the current pressure falls below the set value, an alarm will be triggered. During an alarm, the backlight flashes, and the buzzer emits continuous beeps at a frequency of 1Hz. The alarm will automatically cancel if the pressure exceeds the set value, or you can press any key to cancel it. Alternatively, the alarm will cancel automatically after 30 seconds, and the device will remain in monitoring mode.
