5.3 Pressure and Temperature Measurement

Icon Instruction

The timer on the status bar on top starts timing automatically once the user enters this page. The purpose is to record the time user spend on this page.
Choose the right refrigerant first to avoid affecting the temperature calculation. Click to select the desired refrigerant. The selected refrigerant will be shown on the icon.
The pressure and temperature measurement interface to measure and display the pressure for the low-pressure side, the corresponding evaporation saturation temperature, low-pressure pipeline temperature and superheat as well as the pressure for the high-pressure side, the corresponding condensation saturation temperature, high-pressure pipeline temperature and supercooling. Other than these, the different temperatures of the low-pressure pipe and high-pressure pipe, and charging/recovery weight value can be measured and displayed as well.
There are three measurement modes on the page: refrigeration mode, heat pump mode, and automatic mode. Refrigeration mode: This is the regular mode.
Heat pump model: VSAT parameters and LSAT parameters will be switching display positions.
Automatic mode: The display position of the corresponding parameters will be switched automatically when the pressure of the low-pressure side is 1 bar higher than the high-pressure side.

Switching Between Dial Mode and Curve Mode

Simply click on the middle of the dial meter to switch to curve mode. Click to switch back to dial mode.
Charging and Recovery Function
Shows the current status and weight, press  in to enter the charging and recovery settings page. After the setting is done, click to save the setting and return to the pressure-temperature measurement page. There is no weight display if the current device is not connected to the refrigerant scale.
5.4 Pressure Holding Measurement

• The timer on the status bar on top starts timing automatically once the user enters this page. The purpose is to record the time user spend on this page.

• indicate the temperature compensation has been enabled or disabled. It can be set in the pressure-holding settings interface.
  Temperature compensation enabled: The device will monitor the current ambient temperature in real-time to reduce the pressure variation error caused by the change in the ambient temperature.

• Temperature compensation disabled: The device calculate based on the measured pressure.

• Click to set decay ratio and pressure-holding time and choose if to enable or disable the temperature compensation based on the actual situation.

• Click to start the pressure-holding test. The countdown timer starts to elapse according to the duration that has been set. During the process, the device calculates the pressure variants and the deflation rate automatically based on the current and initial value. The test failed if the current value is less than the alarm value; the test passed if the current value is greater than the alarm value and exceeds the pressure-holding duration.

Switching Between Dial Mode and Curve Mode

Simply click on the middle of the dial meter to switch to curve mode. Click to switch back to dial mode.
5.5 Vacuum Measurement

• The timer on the status bar on top starts timing automatically once the user enters this page. The purpose is to record the time user spend on this page. The “Start” and “Alarm Setting” button is not displayed yet.

• Click ≺ or ≻ to select the preset vacuum target value. The device calculates the remaining time based on the targeted value and rate.
  The remaining time rest is for reference only.

• Working time: It is to set the current vacuum duration. The alarm goes off if the duration has exceeded without achieving the targeted value.
