HVAC Vacuum Pumps for Refrigeration Systems

An HVAC Vacuum Pump is designed to help remove air and moisture from the refrigerant lines. It is designed for use in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. This is a crucial step in the HVAC installation and maintenance process because air and moisture can negatively impact the performance and efficiency of the system

Welch HVAC Vacuum Pumps are used to remove gas, vapors, and other contaminants from refrigeration systems after refrigerant recovery and repair of cooling systems. To ensure the Air Conditioning system is free from contaminants before recharging it with refrigerant, one must maintain a deep and complete vacuum.Our industrial duty HVAC pumps are engineered to deliver deep vacuum for fast evacuation and dehydration. They can pump down quickly reaching 40 microns in hours; not days or weeks like you might experience with a light duty pump.Welch refrigeration and vacuum pump for HVAC come in two pump styles. DuoSeal® belt-drive vacuum pumps are proven performers with low RPMs and a long service life. Our CRVpro direct-driven vacuum pumps are portable and powerful.

About Welch HVAC Vacuum Pumps

DuoSeal rotary vane vacuum pumps are proven performers with low pump RPM to ensure long service life with durable precision machined steel rotor, cast iron intake, exhaust ring and metal vanes. DuoSeal models are used on the most demanding service applications such as purge pump on absorption chillers and Industrial/commercial chillers.
CRVpro models of rotary vane vacuum pumps are portable but powerful and come with forced oil lubrication and a protective coating against the corrosive effects of chemicals on key internal parts. CRVpro pumps are used where high flow is required, and a lightweight and small footprint is desired for service applications such as rooftop HVAC equipment and RTUs.

Selecting an HVAC Vacuum Pump

In addition to vacuum performance and evacuation time, there are several factors to consider when selecting a vacuum pump for refrigeration systems. Here are a few features of Welch HVAC pumps that you might consider when making your selection.
