PRO-SET
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about PRO-SET from 3G Electric.
What are the key specifications of PRO-SET vacuum pumps like the VP12D and VP6D?
The PRO-SET VP12D and VP6D are two-stage vacuum pumps with displacement of 12 cfm and 6 cfm, respectively. Both achieve an ultimate vacuum of 10 micron. They operate on 120V AC with a 5-15P plug and have a male SAE connection. These pumps are not A2L compatible, so they are not suitable for systems using A2L refrigerants. They are used for evacuating moisture and non-condensables from refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The two-stage design allows for faster evacuation and lower ultimate vacuum compared to single-stage pumps. The pumps are designed for field service and are commonly used by HVACR technicians.
What connection types are available in PRO-SET access valve tees?
PRO-SET access valve tees, such as the AVT44, AVT45, and AVT64, feature an elbow configuration. They have a 1/4 in male SAE right-hand connection and a female line connection. The AVT44 and AVT45 have a 1/4 in SAE female line, while the AVT64 has a 1/4 in hex female line. All include a cap and valve core. These valves are used to provide service ports in HVAC and refrigeration systems, allowing technicians to connect gauges or charging equipment. The elbow design helps with routing in tight spaces. They are supplied in packs of three. The SAE connections are standard in the refrigeration industry, ensuring compatibility with common hoses and fittings.
What torque ranges do PRO-SET interchangeable head torque wrench kits cover?
The PRO-SET TLTWSAE kit covers a torque range of 5 to 80 ft-lb and 60 to 960 in-lb, with increments of 5 ft-lb and 60 in-lb. The TLTWSM kit covers 10 to 75 N-m and includes six drive heads in sizes 17 mm, 22 mm, 24 mm, 26 mm, 27 mm, and 29 mm. These kits are used for precise tightening of fasteners in assembly and maintenance tasks. The interchangeable heads allow for flexibility with different fastener sizes. The torque wrenches are mechanical and do not require power. They are suitable for applications where specific torque values must be met, such as in refrigeration system assembly and repair.
What tubing sizes does the PRO-SET FS275 flaring and swaging kit support?
The PRO-SET FS275 flaring and swaging kit includes the FSX501 flaring bar, which accommodates tubing sizes 1/8 in, 3/16 in, 1/4 in, 5/16 in, 3/8 in, and 7/16 in O.D. It creates 45-degree flares and swage connections. This kit is used for preparing tubing ends in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The 45-degree flare is a common standard for refrigerant lines. The kit is manual and does not require power. It is designed for field use and includes the necessary components for flaring and swaging operations. The flaring bar holds the tubing securely during the process.
Are PRO-SET vacuum pumps compatible with A2L refrigerants?
No, the PRO-SET VP12D and VP6D vacuum pumps are not A2L compatible. This means they should not be used with systems containing A2L refrigerants, which are mildly flammable. A2L refrigerants require equipment designed with specific safety features to prevent ignition. Using a non-compatible pump could pose a safety risk. For A2L systems, technicians should use vacuum pumps rated for A2L refrigerants. PRO-SET offers other models that may be A2L compatible, but the VP12D and VP6D are not. Always verify compatibility before use. 3G Electric provides specifications for each SKU to help buyers make informed decisions.
What types of PRO-SET tools does 3G Electric supply?
3G Electric supplies a range of PRO-SET refrigeration and HVAC service tools. This includes vacuum pumps (VP12D, VP6D), access valve tees (AVT44, AVT45, AVT64), torque wrench kits (TLTWSAE, TLTWSM), and flaring and swaging kits (FS275).
