Testo 552 Digital Vacuum Gauge
The Testo 552 Digital Vacuum Gauge helps engineers check deep vacuum levels in refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump systems. It delivers reliable readings during evacuation work and helps confirm that moisture and unwanted gases have been removed. Its maintenance-free sensor design reduces downtime and supports consistent performance in the field.
Designed for daily service work, the Testo 552 Digital Vacuum Gauge combines accuracy with simple operation. The large backlit display remains easy to read in poor lighting conditions, while the fold-out hook allows hands-free positioning during testing. Bluetooth connectivity also makes it easy to view readings on a compatible mobile device.
Reliable Vacuum Measurement
Precise vacuum readings help engineers commission and service HVACR systems with confidence. The Testo 552 Digital Vacuum Gauge measures from 0 to 20,000 microns and delivers resolution down to 10 microns, depending on the measurement range. Its integrated absolute pressure sensor resists contamination, so users can maintain accuracy without routine sensor cleaning.
The optical alarm notifies users immediately when readings exceed preset limits. This helps engineers monitor system performance more efficiently and complete checks with greater confidence. In addition, the Testo 552 Digital Vacuum Gauge measures both evaporation and ambient temperatures, providing valuable data during servicing and commissioning tasks.
Built for Field Use
Durability is important on busy job sites, and this gauge is designed with that in mind. Its IP42 protection rating helps resist dust and water ingress, while overload protection adds an extra level of safety during operation. The rugged housing is suitable for demanding service environments.
Two set options are available, allowing users to choose the package that best suits their requirements. With up to 2400 hours of battery life from two AA batteries and direct compatibility with the Testo 570 digital manifold, the Testo 552 Digital Vacuum Gauge offers a practical solution for professional HVACR applications.
