2. Informazzjoni dwar is-Sigurtà
Dejjem osserva l-prekawzjonijiet ta' sigurtà li ġejjin biex tevita korrimenti jew ħsara lit-tagħmir:
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling refrigerants.
- Aċċerta ruħek li jkun hemm ventilazzjoni xierqa meta taħdem bir-refriġeranti.
- Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure of the hoses (600 PSI / 4.13 MPa). The limit pressure is 3000 PSI.
- Verify that all connections are secure before applying pressure.
- Avoid direct contact with refrigerants, as they can cause frostbite.
- Żomm l-apparat 'il bogħod mill-ilma u temperaturi estremi.
- Ensure the temperature sensor clips are properly connected for accurate readings.
3. Karatteristiċi tal-prodott
The CMTOOL Digital HVAC Manifold Gauge Set offers several advanced features for HVAC professionals:
- Dual Pressure and Dual Temperature Measurement: Simultaneously measures two pressures (gauge pressure) and two temperatures.
- Automatic Unit Conversion: Supports automatic conversion for pressure (kPa, MPa, Psi, Bar, InHg) and temperature (Celsius/Fahrenheit).
- High-Precision Data Unit: Features a built-in 32-bit digital processing unit and high-precision data acquisition for stable and accurate readings.
- Refrigerant Database: Contains a built-in database of 89 refrigerants, allowing for direct reading of pressure-evaporation temperature, superheat, and subcooling.
- Vacuum Measurement: Tests the percentage of vacuum.
- Test tan-nixxija tal-pressjoni: Calculates pressure difference over time to detect refrigerant leaks.
- Kostruzzjoni Durabbli: Made with high-strength engineering plastics and flexible non-slip silicone for durability and comfortable handling.
- Viewable Window and LCD Display: Allows direct observation of refrigerant charging status and features a 7.5CM×4CM LCD with backlight for clear data reading.
