4.2 Połączenie początkowe

Before operation, familiarize yourself with the gauge's interface and connection points:

• 2.4-inch Digital HD Screen: Displays all measurement data.
• Przycisk WŁ./WYŁ.: Short press to power on, long press to power off. Short press to turn on/off the backlight.
• FN/ZERO Button: Long press to zero pressure reading. Short press to switch function mode.
• UNIT/°C/°F Button: Short press to switch pressure unit. Long press to switch temperature unit.
• Strzałki w górę/w dół: Short press to switch refrigerant type. Short press to run/stop air tightness test.
• Low Pressure Valve (Blue): Controls the low-pressure line.
• High Pressure Valve (Red): Controls the high-pressure line.
• Visual Filling Window: Allows observation of refrigerant flow.
• 1/4 inch Low Pressure Inlet (I): Connects to the blue hose.
• Refrigerant Inlet/Vacuum Pump Inlet (J): Connects to the yellow hose.
• 1/4 inch High Pressure Inlet (K): Connects to the red hose.
• Foldable Hook (L): For convenient hanging during use.

5. Instrukcja obsługi

The CMTOOL Digital HVAC Gauges Set supports three primary operating modes: Refrigerant Filling and Pressure Inspection, Vacuum Operation, and Pressure Leak Test. Ensure all connections are secure before beginning any operation.

Figure 6: Three main operating modes of the digital manifold gauge.

5.1 Działanie próżniowe

This mode is used to evacuate air and moisture from the HVAC system before charging with refrigerant.

1. Connect the yellow hose from the gauge to the vacuum pump.
2. Connect the blue hose to the low-pressure service port of the HVAC system and the red hose to the high-pressure service port.
3. Ensure both the blue (LOW) and red (HIGH) valves on the manifold gauge are closed.
4. Włącz pompę próżniową.
5. Open the blue (LOW) and red (HIGH) valves on the manifold gauge to begin evacuation.
6. Monitor the "VAC" percentage and pressure reading on the digital display. Vacuuming is complete when the vacuum degree reaches approximately 80%-90% and remains stable without further changes.
7. Once vacuuming is complete, close both the blue (LOW) and red (HIGH) valves on the manifold gauge before turning off the vacuum pump.

5.2 Refrigerant Filling and Pressure Test

This mode allows for adding refrigerant to the system and monitoring pressure levels.

1. Ensure the blue (LOW) and red (HIGH) valves on the manifold gauge are closed.
2. Connect the yellow hose to the refrigerant can via the universal can tap.
3. Connect the blue hose to the low-pressure service port and the red hose to the high-pressure service port of the HVAC system.
4. Open the valve on the refrigerant can.
5. Slowly open the blue (LOW) valve on the manifold gauge to allow refrigerant to enter the system. Monitor the pressure readings on the display.
6. Once the desired pressure is reached, close the blue (LOW) valve and the valve on the refrigerant can.
7. Observe the LP (Low Pressure) and HP (High Pressure) readings, along with the calculated evaporation (EV) and condensation (CO) temperatures.

5.3 Próba szczelności pod ciśnieniem

This test helps identify leaks in the HVAC system by monitoring pressure changes over time.

1. Ensure the system is charged to the desired pressure.
2. Close both the blue (LOW) and red (HIGH) valves on the manifold gauge.
3. Press the "FN/ZERO" button to switch to the pressure leak test mode. The display will show "Time", "ΔP" (pressure difference), "Start Pressure", and "Current Pressure".
4. Press the play button (usually indicated by an arrow on the screen or a specific button) to start the leak test timer.
5. Monitor the "ΔP" value. A significant change indicates a leak. The test time is displayed in "HH:MM" format.
6. Press the stop button to end the test.
