    Yes. Simple vac pump and a set of gauges is all you need.

    refrigeration rig

    Just one set of -1 bar. Goes from atmosphere down to minus 1 atmosphere. Then recharge to minus .450 . Perfect charge every time without scales. Never had a recall or failure.

    Hi

    If the appliance is low on refrigerant then its got a leak.Line taps I just simply do not like as they can leak and due vibration mixed with r600a.

    I always braze,have done for the past 15 odd years. Treat r600a with respect as any other refrigerant and your fine.R134a isn’t really flammable but it can make you unconscious if burnt during brazing and the lung damage is done.

    Nitrogen, yes I do have a portable kit.How many times a year do i use it..maybe one or two for really stubborn blockages on the old systems.

    Turn up on the February meeting as we are hoping to have it shown using lock ring as well as brazing.
