What is the lowest pressure gauge reading a technician can expect while servicing an automotive AC system?
While servicing an automotive AC system, a technician can expect the low-pressure gauge reading to typically range between 25 to 45 psi under normal operating conditions. However, during recovery or when the system is off, it can drop as low as 0 psi if the system is completely evacuated. It's important for the technician to refer to the specific vehicle's service manual, as pressure readings can vary based on the type of refrigerant and the system design.

How do you calculate absolute pressure when barometer reading is given?
To calculate absolute pressure when a barometer reading is given, simply add the barometer reading to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, which is approximately 101.3 kPa or 14.7 psi. This will give you the absolute pressure at the specific location where the barometer reading was taken.
What does a Pressure Gauge do?
Gives a reading of what the pressure in the system is.
A pressure reading less than atmospheric pressure is?
Low pressure
Blood pressure reading is a reflection of what?
Arterial pressure
How can I check the refrigerant level in my AC system?
To check the refrigerant level in your AC system, you will need a pressure gauge. Attach the gauge to the service valve on the AC unit and compare the reading to the manufacturer's recommended pressure levels. If the pressure is too low, it may indicate a refrigerant leak. If you are unsure how to do this, it is best to contact a professional HVAC technician for assistance.
When checking for noncondensables inside a recovery cylinder wh should the technician allow the temperature of the cylinder to stabilize to room temperature before taking a pressure reading?
Allowing the recovery cylinder to stabilize to room temperature before taking a pressure reading is important because temperature affects pressure readings in gases. If the cylinder is too cold or too warm, the pressure may not accurately reflect the contents, potentially leading to incorrect assessments of noncondensables. Stabilizing at room temperature ensures that the pressure reading reflects the true state of the refrigerant and any noncondensables present in the cylinder. This practice helps ensure accurate measurements and safe handling of the cylinder.
What type of pressure reading is also referred to as overpressure?
gauge pressure
When the barometer reading goes upwe have a pressure area?
air pressure
Why would Oil pressure in 1995 Ford Explorer rise?
I'm not a mechanic / technician but I've heard of a plugged PCV system ( valve, hoses etc ) blowing the oil dipstick up off its seat - but I don't know if that raises the oil pressure reading on the gauge ? ( of course , there is a normal change in oil pressure from idle as the RPM's go up - to a point )
Is the first reading for blood pressure accurate or a second reading is better?
Second
A reading of 120 over 80 would apply to what pressure?
Air pressure
Would a bad fuel pressure sensor give a negative pressure reading?
NO it will not.
