The Value VI120SV vacuum pump for air conditioning with gauge is an essential tool for refrigeration technicians and air conditioning system maintenance. Designed with a lightweight and durable aluminium alloy housing, this rotary vane vacuum pump ensures optimum performance for removing air and moisture from systems before refrigerant gas recharging.
Its 150W direct-drive motor makes starting quick and straightforward, and it does not require frequent maintenance. The pump reaches a pumping speed of 3.6 m³/h and can achieve a pressure limit of up to 2 Pa, ensuring a deep and efficient vacuum in air conditioning and refrigeration systems.
Among its standout features, it has an internal cooling fan that prevents overheating during prolonged use, extending the service life of the equipment. It also has a window for viewing the oil level and quality, making preventive maintenance easier. The drain plug at the bottom of the tank allows for a simple and clean oil change.
This pump is not only useful for air conditioning systems, but is also compatible with vacuum sealing machines for food preservation, degassing, thermofusion and LCD mobile phone screen repair, where a controlled and efficient vacuum is required.

Customer Questions & Answers
What is the maximum vacuum capacity and flow rate of this pump in typical air conditioning applications?
The Value Vi120sv pump reaches a maximum vacuum of 10⁻⁶ bar (approx. 0.0001 Pa), suitable for deep evacuation in refrigeration systems. Its flow rate is 3.6 m³/h, allowing efficient evacuation of small to medium domestic and commercial systems. For large industrial installations, a higher-flow model may be required.
What are the dimensions, weight and main construction materials of the pump, and what is included in the box?
The pump is mainly made from cast aluminium, which provides lightness and durability. Approximate dimensions: 260 mm (L) x 120 mm (W) x 230 mm (H). Weight: 5.6 kg. The box includes the pump, integrated gauge, user manual and start-up oil for the first fill.
Is it compatible with different types of refrigerants, and what type of connectors does it use to connect to systems?
The Value Vi120sv pump is compatible with most refrigerants used in air conditioning and refrigeration (R134a, R22, R410A, etc.), but it must not be used with flammable refrigerants. The inlet connector is a standard 1/4'' SAE thread, so it is compatible with most hoses and manifolds on the market.
What maintenance recommendations are there to preserve performance and service life, and how often should the oil be changed?
It is essential to check the oil level and colour through the inspection window. It is recommended to change the oil after each use, or if it shows discolouration or visible contamination. Keep the inlet/outlet ports clean and regularly check the condition of the motor and fan.
What technical differences are there compared with higher-flow multi-vane models, and what advantages does this model offer for service work?
Compared with multi-stage pumps or higher-flow models (>7 m³/h), the Vi120sv is lighter, more portable and lower in power consumption (typical power: 150-200 W). Its 3.6 m³/h flow rate is sufficient and safer for controlled vacuum in domestic split systems and small units, helping to avoid oil carry-over risks. Maintenance is simpler and it offers a good balance of performance and portability.
What is the Value VI120SV vacuum pump used for?
It is used to remove air and moisture from air conditioning and refrigeration systems before refrigerant gas recharging, ensuring optimum operation.
What pumping capacity does this vacuum pump have?
It has a pumping speed of 3.6 cubic metres per hour (m³/h).
Is it compatible with other uses besides air conditioning?
Yes, it can also be used in vacuum sealing machines for food preservation, degassing, thermofusion and LCD screen repair.
What voltage does this vacuum pump require?
It operates on 220V at 50Hz.
Does it include a gauge?
No, the gauge is sold separately to complement the equipment.
