Pump for evacuating air conditioners (evacuator)

Vacuum pump for air conditioner is a must-have equipment used during installation and refueling. Before filling the air conditioner with freon, it is necessary to remove air and moisture from the pipeline. Otherwise, the physical properties of the refrigerant deteriorate, and a large amount of moisture may cause the air conditioner to malfunction.

Purpose of vacuum pumps

If you run the air conditioner without evacuating, the air trapped in the pipes will increase the pressure. The compressor runs at increased load and produces less cold. The air in the refrigerant line, interacting with freon, creates a small amount of acid, which reduces the insulation resistance of the compressor electric motor. The quality of freon is significantly reduced, the compressor suffers.

As a result of evacuation, the track is cleared of accidentally trapped debris and dust. Turning on the air conditioner without vacuuming using only the freon drain is dangerous. Soon, the owner will find icing on the cold pipes and the outer hull. The evacuation procedure costs significantly less than repairing the compressor.

Criteria for the selection of a vacuum unit for an air conditioner

The vacuum unit for the air conditioner is selected depending on the following parameters:

• the purpose of climatic technology (industrial or household);
• frequency of use of a vacuum cleaner for an air conditioner
• the length of the cold pipes;
• evacuation depth;
• technical characteristics of air conditioners;
• cost.

The price of a vacuum pump for refueling an air conditioner depends on all these indicators and varies from 2.5 to 15 thousand rubles.

For the evacuation of industrial air conditioners, the most powerful, large-scale installations are used, which provide a deep vacuum.

When working with domestic and semi-industrial systems, great attention is paid to the mobility of the vacuum pump for the air conditioner, its small size and weight.

The vacuum pump for air conditioners and their installations is presented on the Russian market by Chinese, American, Spanish, Taiwanese and Italian manufacturers.

Factory products from China, being several times cheaper than European or American counterparts, are in no way inferior to them in quality.

The largest selection of vacuum pumps for the installation of air conditioners is presented in online stores. Here you can choose 1-stage or 2-stage with capacities from 20 to 250 liters per minute. It is also important to select a vacuum pump for charging air conditioners that provides the required pressure.
