Great device.
I am not an AC Tech by any means, however I have done my research and feel that this review will give someone some good info. When I first attached this device I could not pump down under 900 mic on any line set. I questioned the device at first, but then started looking for leaks, and as I read and read that if you cannot get below 500 mic then you have a leak somewhere. I started looking, first at the pump, found a small leak as I have a pump that has 3 connection ports that are capped with plastic caps. Then I found that I had not tightened a coupler enough and then found a bad flare (of course these items were all on different line sets). As soon as I took care of these small items all three line sets that I installed pumped down to below 250 mic. I also learned to read what the device was doing while the pump was running. It would bounce back and forth between numbers 830/840/850/840/830 etc and would go no lower. This told me that something was wrong. All the while I was watching the pressure gauge and it was holding at 30 psi. This device worked perfectly and I would recommend it to anyone who is installing any sort of HVAC system. I think my only gripe is that it turns off after 10 minutes so you have to turn it back on over and over.

Best of the Best in Digital Vacuum Gauges
This CPS VG200 Digital Vacuum Gauge with NIST Calibration for accuracy is the GOLD STANDARD for this type of gauge, and so is naturally a bit pricey. There are others at lower cost available, that work fine enough for most situations, if all you need to pull is a 300 to 500 Micron vacuum. However, this vacuum gauge can withstand 400 PSI of positive pressure, and can be cleaned of oil with a shot of denatured alchohol, uses one 9-volt alkaline battery, and comes with a pass-through Y fitting to monitor vacuum at the hose connection, has a hanger, and well-built carrying case. So if you are a Pro or still learning the trade, this is an outstanding item to add to your tool collection.

quality guage , essential tool for HVAC install repair and maintenance
I received a used one which was covered in refrigerant oil and requested a replacement. I would have been ok with a used on but not at full price. A replacement was sent promptly and a precision micron gauge like this will make your mini split installs a lot easier and give you greater confidence that you have pulled a deep vacuum. Get a 9v battery when you place your order

Great gauge, JUNK LEAKING TEE!
Gauge seems to be accurate, included tee is JUNK!Gauge went to 3 microns…. Gauge with the included tee won’t go below 500 on a 9cfm pump. Tried a different seal in it with zero change. The solder / braze job on it is leaking. Not happy about that!

The best micron gauge, period.
Had one I used for about 5 years, never had a problem with it. It was hit many times with refrigerant and positive pressures and still worked. Then I decided to go with the Fieldpiece wireless gauge for some stupid reason. Within 4 months it got hit with very little of the same as above. tried several times to clean it to no avail. The readings are all over the place. That was a complete waste of $225.00! I sold my old CPS to one of my coworkers and it's still running like a champ! I bought this one from my past experience with it, and I will never look back again. It's bullet proof and there is none BETTER!

Don't trust VG200 CPS micron gauges from JBTools
I purchased a discounted CPS micron gauge from JBTools, who described the gauge as being in "very good condition". The gauge is advertised to include a 9V battery, which was missing from the package. I purchased and installed a new 9V battery. Without pressing the gauge power button, the gauge instantly displayed a 1-micron vacuum (see pictures) without being connected to anything. I repeated the process several times and obtained the same result. I quickly returned the item and also sent a message to JBTools, who has not yet responded. If you look at the reviews for this gauge sold by JBTools, there are MANY Amazon customers who have had the same or similar experience with both new and used CPS micron gauges, suggesting that JBTools KNOWINGLY sells defective CPS gauges. How long will Amazon allow this to happen?

The guage is Good
I almost sent this guage back. I had it connected directly to my vacuum pump and each time I shut the pump off the pressure would drop immediately. I notice that one of the ports on my pump had a plastic cap. I was not confident this cap would seal perfectly. I then decided to isolate the gauge with a small ball valve. Success. The plastic cap was the problem. The guage is GOOD.
