Important
Read this manual and become familiar with the spe-
cifications and operation of REFCO manifolds prior to
use. The instructions of use will give you important
information in regards to the operation, service and the
disposal of the manifold.
Purpose and use:
The manifolds have been designed especially to measure pressure in
refrigeration equipment. The manifold may only be used by trained
technicians.
The manifold must not be used for other than refrigeration appli-
cations in connection with refrigerants. The manifold is not suitable for
other liquids or gases than those indicated on the gauge.
The manifold must not be used with pressures higher than the pres-
sure scale indicated on the high pressure gauge of the manifold.
The manifold can in no case be used as a pressure regulator.
The manifold must not be used with ammonia (NH-3).
Safety goggles and gloves must be worn at all time during the use
of the manifold.
First use / Transport:
The manifolds are supplied from the factory either in a plastic carrying
case or cardboard box with, or without charging hoses.
Manifolds are high precision measuring instruments. After use, store
the manifold always in the carrying case or the cardboard box provid-
ed. Plastic carrying cases can be purchased optionally. Please refer to
the manifold accessory section in the REFCO catalogue.
Technical description:
The 2-way manifold is a high precision instrument. Both gauges, high
and low pressure can be readjusted to the zero point. The manifold
gauges are marked with temperature and pressure scales or are
equipped with interchangeable refrigerant scales.
Changeable piston type valves ensure perfect sealing. Glycerine-oil
filled gauges are equipped with a safety pressure relief in case of a
pressure build up inside the gauge due to a defect. The hoses can be
hooked up to the hose anchors on the side and at the front of the t-style
for storage during non use. This protects the hoses against contami-
nation or damage.
Delivery content:
The content of delivery for each manifold varies depending on the type.
Please refer to the REFCO catalogue for further information about exe-
cutions and accessories.
