Inches of vacuum. Thirty inches of vacuum is generally considered a complete vacuum when evacuating a system before purging it with nitrogen gas to completely dry the system out before recharging it with whatever refrigerant is to be used. This assumes that what ever problem generated the need for the system to evacuated has been resolved.

How do you calculate suction pressure for air theoretically?
Air has a pressure, but not a suction pressure. Air pressure is measured with a barometer, you do not calculate it. Suction pressure is a concept which applies to a pump. Suction pressure = static pressure + surface pressure - vapour pressure - friction pressure.
What are the causes of high suction pressure?
Suction is caused by an are of negative pressure.
What is the fan speed relationship to suction pressure?
for a given air conditioner: the faster the condenser (outdoor) fan the lower the suction pressure. the faster the evaporator (indoor) fan the higher the suction pressure.
Where is the water pressure regulator that is controlling head pressure be installed?
On the discharge line with the relief of the pressure control back to suction
What is the SI unit for suction?
I guess that would be measured in units of pressure: Pascal = Newton/meter2.
Is suction pressure another word for evaporator saturation pressure?
Yes

What is the function of Suction valve?
the suction valve is transfered fluid one pipe to another pipe at a specific pressure and quantity.
When an evaporater experiences a heat-load increase the suction pressure does what?
The suction pressure increase.
Where is suction and discharge s?
Answer: The terms suction and discharge are the terms refer to hydraulics. In hydraulics if the the liquid has to be lifted or pumped to the usage area the hydraulic pump will be used . This pump will have to functions that is first suction to lift the fluid and the discharge or delivery . The familiar words in pair are lift and discharge; suction and discharge. The specification of pump for these terms are suction head and discharge head.AnswerThe suction pressure refers to the pressure of the referigerant being "sucked" back into the compressor. The suction pressure is a critical variable in ensuring the accuracy of the refrigerant charge, along with the tepmerature of that line as well. The "superheat", or heat added to the vapor in that line can be monitored in this manner.You have not mention which suction pressure... Actually Where ever the suction is presented that pressure is called suction pressure.... and suction pressure in practical cases normally always less that atmospheric pressure and in case of delivery pressure it is oppositeSaying that suction pressure is " the pressure of the referigerant being "sucked" back into the compressor " is not accurate.Simply , the suction pressure of a pump is the absolute pressure of a fluid , measured at the inlet of the pump ( in your answer , the pump is the compressor , and the fluid is whatever refrigerant. )The discharge pressure , is the absolute pressure of the liquid measured at the outlet of the pump.Obviously, the discharge pressure is usually bigger than suction pressure.
What is the fan speed relationship to suction pressure?
for a given air conditioner: the faster the condenser (outdoor) fan the lower the suction pressure. the faster the evaporator (indoor) fan the higher the suction pressure.
What is negative suction?
pressure
What is another term for atmospheric pressure?
barometric pressure
Does low suction pressure have an effect on reciprocating compressors?
At very low suction pressure, the suction valves of reciprocating compressor will not work and there will be no gas in the cylinder during compression stroke, resulting some damage to the suction valves. If low suction pressure trip protection is not provided there can be some abnormal damage.
What will cause the suction pressure to rise?
head pressure
What is the suction pressure of condensate extraction pump?
Condensate pump suction pressure below 4 feet of the condenser is almost equal to condenser pressure (760mm of Hg). If the pump equiped under the deep pit , suction pressure is vary.
