Orion Motor Tech Vacuum Pump, 3.5 cfm 1/4 hp HVAC Single Stage Vacuum Pump for R12 R22 R134a R410a R502, Auto AC Vacuum Pump Kit for Automotive Air Conditioner Resin Degassing & More, Oil Included

Quiet operation and serves the purpose. Seems to be of reasonably good quality for fairly my infrequent use. No complaints, especially for the price point.

I read reviews for a hand full of these pumps before purchasing and was worried about a hand full of things. I have done plenty of automotive A/C jobs and got tired of dealing with rentals or an air compressor venturi attachment. I decided to treat myself and bought this to make life easier. It works great and bottoms out the manifold gauges within a minute or two to boil off any moisture. I kept it on for 45 minutes and was all worried about oil clouds and misting etc, but this did not make any mess at all, nor use any oil at all. Maybe it was the environment, I’m not sure. For reference this was in Southern California and 82 degrees outside. It’s true the provided bottle of oil that comes with this is only enough to fill the tank half way to its capacity, but since it didn’t consume any oil for the job I am still good for the next one. This pump is whisper quiet as well, so I was able to talk normal around it running with no issues and the neighbors can’t complain. The casing was hot to touch as expected, but not enough to burn at all. Build quality is exceptional, including the plastic port caps. I was worried those would be brittle and thin, but they are heavy duty. No leaks at all either, and will update if I have any issues. Overall, just a great purchase!

Second Orion product I’ve bought and both have been quality tools. The pump came with oil, I filled it and put it to use. It works perfectly and I like the fact that it has both common size fittings on the pump. It also was a great value!

Worked great and faster than the last one I bought

What Vacuum Pump. It arrived leak free, seemed very sturdy upon inspection. I used it on my truck today (1990 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.7L V8) and the A/C had been converted to R134a back in 1998. It was real easy to use with my OMT AC Manifold Gauge Set that I bought separately as I wanted better gauges than the ones offered by OMT kits. This pump is a wonder. It pulled a -30 inHg in about 20 seconds flat. Then when I kept it on for over 30 minutes to pull out all the air and water it got Semi-Hot but you could still touch it for a couple seconds to check the temp. Never got real hot at all. Actually it states it will pull a 5Pa but it looks like it will do a low 4Pa as my gauge went past the -30 into the black. Oil supplied was sufficient for a good between High-Low fill and it never moved from that position the whole time. Smoked very little upon start-up. IMHO this is a excellent unit and priced right for a DIY person. Need it - Get it..

Seems ok, It worked for one use so I can't attest to longevity. They only send you a tiny little bottle of the special oil required. Somehow some of the oil leaked out and there wasn't even a tiny bit of oil left in that little bottle too even top it off.

great product what for i need to do. semi part time technician at this point almost retired. So for those wanted a good product n bang for the buck this is the one!

I used it to vacuum the AC system in a Kubota tractor when I replaced a bad compressor. Worked great it had no issues vacuuming the system for an hour strait in 100 degree weather. I had my work fan blowing on it and it got pretty hot to the touch, but that did not seem to bother it. My cheap basic Vector brand manifold set fit it just fine. Seems like a good pump and it has already paid for itself with just the one repair and now I will have it for the next time an AC goes out on something.

Muy buena bomba
