3. Product Features

The Elitech SVP-7 Smart Vacuum Pump is designed with advanced features for efficient and reliable HVAC/R system evacuation:

• Smart Leak Detection System: Precisely measures leakage levels on a 0-100 risk scale (0=sealed, 100=critical leak), using real-time diagnostics to pinpoint weak spots faster than manual testing.
• Real-Time Vacuum Graph: Watch the evacuation process unfold live below 60,000 microns – spot leaks, clogs, or slow pumping instantly with visual trends (vs. guessing from numbers alone).
• Fully Automated Operation: Self-regulating motor and solenoid valve with auto shutoff prevents oil backflow and estimates job completion time.
• Mobile App Control (iOS/Android): Remotely start/stop, monitor vacuum levels, and export PDF reports via Elitech Tools Bluetooth app.
• 4" Touchscreen Interface: User-friendly display shows live metrics (temp/leakage/motor status) with one-touch parameter adjustment.
• Dual Safety Protection: Industrial-grade ISO 46 oil + 122°F auto-shutdown defend against meltdowns – meets OSHA standards for worry-free operation.

5.3 Smart Leak Detection System

The integrated leak detection system provides a risk scale (0-100) to identify potential leaks:

• During evacuation, the pump continuously monitors the system for pressure changes.
• A higher leakage level indicates a greater risk of leaks. Address any identified leaks before proceeding.

5.4 Real-Time Vacuum Graph

The touchscreen and app display a real-time vacuum graph, allowing visual monitoring of the evacuation process:

• Observe the graph for stable vacuum levels, which indicate a successful evacuation.
• Sudden drops or plateaus may suggest leaks or blockages.
