Deep Vacuum Method
The deep vacuum method requires a vacuum pump
capable of pulling a vacuum of 500 microns and a
vacuum gage capable of accurately measuring this
vacuum depth. The deep vacuum method is the most
positive way of assuring a system is free of air and
liquid water.

positive way of assuring a system is free of air and
liquid water.
Triple Evacuation Method
The triple evacuation method should only be used
when vacuum pump is only capable of pumping down
to 28 in. of mercury vacuum and system does not
contain any liquid water.
Refer to “Triple Evacuation Method chart” and proceed
as follows:
1. Pump system down to 28 in. of mercury and allow
when vacuum pump is only capable of pumping down
to 28 in. of mercury vacuum and system does not
contain any liquid water.
Refer to “Triple Evacuation Method chart” and proceed
as follows:
1. Pump system down to 28 in. of mercury and allow
pump to continue operating for an additional 15
minutes.

2. Close service valves and shut off vacuum pump.
3. Connect a nitrogen cylinder and regulator to system
3. Connect a nitrogen cylinder and regulator to system
and open until system pressure is 2 psig.
4. Close service valve and allow system to stand for 1
hr. During this time, dry nitrogen will be able to
diffuse throughout the system absorbing moisture.
