3 Description of the instrument 6 Feature Value Bluetooth Range 20 m (free field) (Varies depending on the capability of the mobile terminal device used.) Bluetooth type LSD Science & Technology Co., Ltd L series BLE module (08 May 2013) based on TI CC254X chip Qualified Design ID D030430 Bluetooth radio class Class 3 Bluetooth company 10274 3 Description of the instrument 3.1 Use The testo 552 is a digital vacuum gauge for the precise measurement of extremely small pressures in the vacuum range. This allows you to monitor the evacuation (usually during commissioning) of refrigeration systems and heat pumps. With the testo 552, you can therefore measure the current pressure in a refrigeration system, and thus gather information about the degree of dehumidification and the removal of foreign matter (oils, foreign gases, etc.). A vacuum gauge is always used in conjunction with a vacuum pump (generates the vacuum). A manifold (analogue or digital) is also often used in order to obtain controlled access to the refrigeration system.
