I think this is a solid tool to have. The Autogen jump starter is compact, reliable, and just a little better than my previous jump packs. For around $100, this is a winner. It offers great functionality, including a quiet air compressor and multiple charging options.

@CPthetooladdict

The Autogen jump starter is truly a high-quality product, passing all our tests with flying colors. It’s reliable, powerful, and exceptional!

@LeonardoLai1

It’s perfect for emergencies. Whether you left your lights on or need to power up your phone, this compact unit gives you peace of mind.

@MowersNBlowers

The Autogen jump starter is one of the best I’ve used—reliable, durable, and packed with features. It’s more than just a jump starter; it’s a must-have for anyone who spends time on the road.

@MrRJCtube

The Autogen jump starter has earned my trust. It's powerful, durable, and packed with features, making it one of the best options out there. If you need a solid jump starter under $200, I can’t recommend this one enough.

@CFarmer

Autogen products are a great solution for dead batteries and emergencies. I highly recommend giving them a try.

What are the key features of this vacuum pump?

  • High Performance: Equipped with a 1/3HP motor and 4CFM free air displacement for efficient vacuuming.
  • Durability: Aluminum alloy housing enhances heat dissipation and extends lifespan.
  • Backflow Prevention: Special intake design prevents oil from flowing back, protecting connected equipment.
  • Low Noise & Vibration: Uses elastic couplings for smoother, quieter operation.
  • User-Friendly Design: Includes an oil window, ergonomic handle, and non-slip base for easy handling.

What is the maximum vacuum this pump can achieve?

The VP400 can reach an ultimate vacuum of 37.5 microns (5 Pa), making it suitable for deep vacuum applications.

Is the pump compatible with all HVAC hoses?

Yes, the pump features both 1/4" SAE and 1/2" ACME inlet fittings, making it compatible with most common HVAC hoses.

Can this pump handle refrigerants for HVAC work?

Yes, it is compatible with common HVAC refrigerants like R134a, R22, R410a, and R32. However, it is not suitable for ammonia-based or highly corrosive refrigerants.

What types of applications is this vacuum pump suitable for?

This vacuum pump is ideal for:

  • HVAC & refrigeration servicing
  • Automotive air conditioning repair
  • Food processing & vacuum packaging

  3. Connect the intake hose to the correct port (1/4" flare or 1/2" ACME).
  4. Plug in the power cord and turn on the pump.
  5. Monitor the pressure gauge and turn off the pump once the desired vacuum level is reached.

Can this vacuum pump be used continuously?

It is designed for intermittent use. Avoid running it continuously for more than 15-20 minutes to prevent overheating. Allow sufficient cooling time between uses.

What type of oil should I use, and how often should I change it?

Use high-grade vacuum pump oil for optimal performance. It is recommended to change the oil after each use to prevent dust or contaminants from the previous operation from damaging the pump. Always check the oil level before operation and ensure it remains clean.

How do I properly refill the oil?

  1. Turn off and unplug the pump.
  2. Remove the oil drain plug and drain old oil completely.
  3. Close the drain plug and add new oil through one of the dual oil filling ports.
  4. Check the oil level via the oil window—ensure it is within the recommended range.

Does this vacuum pump require maintenance?

Yes, regular maintenance ensures a long service life. Key maintenance steps include:

  • Ensure the built-in cooling fan is functioning properly.

The pump is making an unusual noise—what could be the cause?

Possible reasons include:

  • Low oil levels—refill with the recommended oil.
  • Loose fittings—tighten all connections.
  • Internal wear—if the issue persists, contact customer support.

Does the vacuum pump require charging?

No, this vacuum pump operates directly from an electrical power source (110V, 60Hz) and does not require charging.

What kind of power source does the vacuum pump need?

The Air Vacuum Pump requires a 110V, 60Hz power source.
