8. Напредне функције
8.1. Understanding H2O Saturation
The VGW-10X can help assess the physical status of H2O in a cooling system by comparing ambient temperature and water saturation temperature.
Figure 8.1: H2O Status in Cooling System
By measuring both ambient temperature (Tamb) and the water saturation temperature (TH2O) corresponding to the vacuum level, the gauge can automatically determine if H2O is likely in a liquid or vapor state within the system. This feature is crucial for ensuring thorough dehydration during evacuation processes.
8.2. Температурна компензација
The device incorporates an advanced ambient compensating design to maintain accuracy across varying temperature conditions.
Figure 8.2: Temperature Compensation for Accuracy
This feature automatically compensates for temperature fluctuations, ensuring consistent and reliable vacuum measurements without the need for manual adjustments by the user.
