Review on CPS MA1234: Pro-Set Manifold A/C Gauge Set 🌡️ with Hoses (R-12, R-134A) - Efficient Cooling System Diagnostic Tool by Jacob Ashman

I bought a CPS MA1234 A/C Manifold Kit to replace the Yellow Jacket kit. The Yellow Jacket set was a great set but seemed to have an extra feature. Legs. yes - one day they just got up and left. Speaking of features, this set features a large, easy-to-read 3 1/2-inch display with an internal shock-absorbing silicone shell for shake-free operation, and the professional set hoses are of good quality. /4 inches that fit r12/r22, so keep that in mind when buying a faucet. If you buy a r134a faucet you will need an adapter (included) as this hose connects to r12/r22 (1/4 done all hoses. Easy connection, high (red) and low (blue) side. Make up your own mind no worries if you are using them for the first time, they have different size connectors so it is impossible to connect them wrong, there is also a sight glass to see that the refrigerant is being sucked in ... to the air conditioning The pressure gauge reading is Marked only on the R134a scale, but you can use them with R12, R22 The R410A refrigerant uses only essential oils la and should not be contaminated with other oils, so the EPA recommends the use of special rings, only for vacuum pump and manifold gauges To create a comparative pressure gauge scale, search online for a picture of a pressure gauge with R134aa scale and the refrigerant scale you need, you now have a recommendation scale to use Filling other refrigerants. At first I thought the check valves on the high and low pressure hoses were overkill and just another item that could easily break. However, they have grown on me. I had a case where the hose connection came loose and leaked when loading the 134 high side adapter. Instead of shutting off the manifold and then tightening the hose fitting, I just twisted the check valve to the closed position without freezing my fingers. When refilling refrigerant bottles, I really like the function of the shut-off valve, it is enough to simply close the valve when removing the empty bottle and replace it with a full bottle without air entering the suction line. Time will test the durability of this set while they took their first boo-boo. I like to hang my gear on the hood so I can see the gauges clearly. However, on set, the hood of a Chevy 2500HD fell off due to a gust of wind. Fortunately the gauge set was not damaged. If you ever need to adjust the needle on the gauge, there is a little plug on the gauge that you unplug and then you can zero the gauge with a Phillips or Phillips head screwdriver. The distributor does not include a storage box. CPS products are made in the USA. Choose the set you like best, but listen to the advice. Whichever kit you buy, make sure it includes 6ft tubing or you will regret it. Overall I love this diverse set and I bet you will too.
