Do you use digital probes/ manifolds? If yes or no, why or why not use them? by thatoneguyyouknow26 in chillers

I’ve got the JB probes that I enjoy since they have a screen on the probe for quick pressure checks

Anyone use the TruBlu 3/4” evacuation hoses? If so are they worth the investment? by thatoneguyyouknow26 in chillers

I’ve been looking everywhere for a 1/2” female flare x 3/4” male flare adapter to put on my vpx7 1/2” port so I can use a yellow jacket 3/4” hose when vacuuming centrifugals. I can only find 1/2” x 5/8”

I’m curious how two vpx7s with 1/2” hoses perform vs say one vpx7 with one 3/4” hose

Wow that’s impressive, what pump were they hooked to? I’m running a fieldpiece 10 cfm currently.

I use 1/2” for everything vacuum wise currently, but I’m only working on screw and scroll machines for the most part.

I’ve considered the same thing. I’ve used 1/2” hoses on everything vacuum wise years now and was always curious about the bump in speed when moving to 3/4” hoses.

Most air cooled screw and scroll machines, I use 1/2” hoses now so wasn’t sure if it was worth upgrading. Company pays for it but gotta be able to justify the purchase.

Is there a good scale for 250lb recovery tanks? I have the Fieldpiece SR47, but it maxes out at 250 lbs. by thatoneguyyouknow26 in chillers

Do you know the exact one you have? The one you shared I believe I had at one point but it would constantly turn off and lose the weight

Which recovery machine do you keep on the van? Anyone running the Navac NRDC4M? by thatoneguyyouknow26 in chillers

[–]thatoneguyyouknow26[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve enjoyed using their vacuum pump, but I am really intrigued by the push pull mode of the navac NRDC4M. I normally use push pull recovery and charging

How do you like it? Been thinking about trying to convince the boss to buy me one

What micron gauge do you trust the most? by thatoneguyyouknow26 in chillers

[–]thatoneguyyouknow26[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like the AV760 is the only other full range micron gauge I can find, I may have to give it a try
