Its 5 cfm vacuum pump is large enough for the 17800C machine to thoroughly evacuate almost any system, making it ready for charging. The unit also includes a manual air purge function to remove any non-condensable contaminants while its vacuum leak test function provides insight to any vacuum decay to determine if a leak exists in the A/C system. The 4.3 in. color graphical display gives users a clear look at all functions and displays to further provide the user with a line of sight for all operations. An optional printer can be added to expand capabilities and provide a printed record of service performed.
The Robinair 17800C contains maintenance counters to monitor cumulative amounts of refrigerant recovered and charged, as well as other machine operation variables.
