Read Two Pressure Ports and Their Difference at Once
The PT530 shows IN1, IN2 and the differential reading together for vacuum and positive-pressure checks on intake manifolds, brake boosters, crankcases and exhaust valves. A magnetic back and lit controls support hands-free reading in dim work areas.
- -100 to 300 kPa
- IN1 / IN2 / Differential
- ±0.25% FS
- 29 Stored Data Sets
- 10 Pressure Units
Key Features
-
Dual-Port Differential Testing
Measure two points at the same time and read the pressure difference directly, for faster comparison during vacuum and pressure diagnosis.
-
Temperature-Compensated Sensor
Temperature compensation helps keep readings stable, including in cold regions.
-
Lock, Zero and Record
Hold the current reading, zero the display, and store and review records for on-site checks and later reporting.
-
Hands-Free Magnetic Mounting
The magnetic back attaches to metal vehicle components so both hands stay free during the test.
-
Low-Light Operation
Backlit screen, illuminated buttons and a built-in flashlight help in dark engine bays.
-
Impact-Resistant Casing
Lead elements added to the casing improve impact resistance and help protect the meter if it is dropped.

How to Use
- Choose the test pathConfirm the system, medium, expected range and required operating condition before selecting an adapter.
- Connect safelyDepressurize when required and fit the correct adapter and hose without forcing threads.
- Set the conditionRun or operate the system only as the vehicle procedure directs and watch every connection for leaks.
- Capture the readingRecord the value, unit and operating condition; repeat when the procedure calls for a comparison.
- Depressurize and confirmReturn the system to a safe state, remove the adapter and restore the connection.
Good to Know
Caution
- Use only with non-corrosive oil, water, air or natural gas, and stay within the stated measuring range.
Care
- The current version no longer displays the Pa unit.
- Interpret a differential reading against the exact system and operating condition.
