Its robust construction ensures reliable performance in demanding workshop environments, aiding in precise diagnostics and maintenance tasks.

Key Features

• Dual Measurement Capability: Accurately measures both positive pressure (0-30 psi / 0-200 kPa) and vacuum (0-30 inHg / 0-100 kPa) with a single gauge, eliminating the need for multiple instruments.
• Durable Construction: Features a high-quality 2-inch diameter gauge with a protective rubber boot, designed for long-lasting use in professional settings.
• Accurate Gearless Diaphragm Movement: Provides stable and precise readings without needle bounce, ensuring reliable diagnostic results.
• Convenient Design: Equipped with a special stem design that allows for 360° rotation and easy pin-release removal, enhancing user flexibility and ease of use.
• Broad Compatibility: Serves as a direct replacement or an additional option for Mityvac Silverline Elite and Selectline models, allowing for seamless integration with existing Mityvac hand pumps.

Applications

The Mityvac MVA6170 Compound Press Gauge is a critical tool for diagnosing various automotive and industrial systems that operate under both pressure and vacuum conditions. It is particularly valuable for:

• HVAC and Refrigeration Systems: Essential for checking refrigerant lines, air conditioning units, and heat pumps to troubleshoot issues and optimize efficiency.
• Leak Detection: Effectively identifies leaks in pressurized systems such as air conditioning lines, vacuum chambers, and pipelines.
• Brake and Clutch Bleeding: Integral for systems requiring both vacuum and pressure, ensuring proper fluid evacuation and bleeding procedures.
• Engine Diagnostics: Used to test turbocharger wastegates, cooling systems, and other vacuum-controlled engine functions to prevent overheating and identify component malfunctions.
• Industrial Vacuum Processes: Ideal for applications involving compressors, pumps (suction and discharge), and various test chambers in laboratory and industrial settings where pressure fluctuates below and above atmospheric levels.
