1. Introducció
The MRCARTOOL L205 Digital Manifold Gauge is a versatile instrument designed for HVAC and refrigeration system diagnostics. It simultaneously measures double pressure (gauge pressure) and dual temperature, offering automatic multi-unit pressure conversion and temperature unit conversion (°C/°F). It features a built-in database of 89 types of refrigerants, allowing for direct calculation and display of subcooling and superheat values. Additionally, it performs vacuum percentage measurements and pressure leak tests with time and speed records. This multi-functional tool provides accurate and easy-to-operate diagnostics for various refrigeration applications.

- Open the valve on the refrigerant tank.
6. Instruccions de funcionament
6.1. Funcionament general
- Encès/apagat: Press the Power/Backlight button (6) to turn the device on or off. A short press also toggles the backlight.
- Canvi d'unitat: Use the "UNIT °C/°F" button to cycle through pressure units (Kpa, Mpa, bar, inHg, psi) and temperature units (°C, °F).
- Refrigerant Selection: Use the Function buttons (7) (up/down arrows) to select the desired refrigerant from the built-in database.
6.2. Dual-Channel Measurement
The L205 provides simultaneous measurement of temperature and pressure values for both high-pressure and low-pressure lines, facilitating comparative analysis of the refrigerant system's condition. The display shows:
- EV: Temperatura d'evaporació
- QUÈ: Condensation temperature
- LP: Pressure at Low Pressure (LP) pipelines
- HP: Pressure at High Pressure (HP) pipelines
6.3. Pressure Leakage Test
To perform a pressure leakage test:
- Ensure the system is properly connected and pressurized.
- Navigate to the leak test function on the device.
- The display will show "Test Time" (HH:MM), "Leak Pressure" (ΔP), "Start Pressure", and "Current Pressure".
- Monitor the "Leak Pressure" (ΔP) value over time. A significant change indicates a leak.
