Vacuum Gauges are very important tools that assist you during any HVAC job where you are evacuating a system. When you pull a vacuum on a system to completely “dry” a system and remove all contaminants it is important to know if everyone is working as intended. This is where the Yellow Jacket eVac I and eVac II Digital Vacuum Gauge earn their stripes. The eVac I is the bare bones variety of vacuum gauges but that does not mean it is junky.

Hello all. Today we are going to have a look at a relatively easy to use product that saves you the headache of having to do complex math on the job – the Yellow Jacket 69196 SuperHeat SubCool Calculator. For those who don’t know, superheat is the degrees a vapor is above its boiling point at a certain pressure and the subcool value is the number of degrees below the boiling point.

The Fluke Ti90 and Ti95 Infrared Cameras have been discontinued.

 Hello all. This week we’ll have a look at the new line of Fluke cameras (Fluke Ti90 and Fluke Ti95) that make use of the new Fluke Connect Wireless app and are the only infrared cameras in the price class that offer any kind of wireless communication. Let’s have a quick look at the specs and then a glance at the wireless capabilities.

Personal Safety in the working environment is a very important issue. The Bacharach Snifit Plus Carbon Monoxide Monitor is a personal safety device that makes sure you are safe when entering and working on a job site.

Hello again. Today we’re going to have a quick look at an exciting new product from T3 Innovation, the NC950 Net Chaser and the active remote version – NC950-AR Net Chaser. Once upon a time JDSU made a line of network certifiers that were designed to certify network installations to IEEE standards 802.3 and TIA568A/B. This may be gibberish to most, but it important in that these standards carry a lot of legal weight with insurance and the like.

Being able to effectively manage and monitor complex networks is not an easy task. There a lot of options out there for devices that offer to help in that regard. The Psiber Pro70 and Pro75 PingerPro Cable and Network Management Tools are both great new devices that will fit your needs. These tools offer a wide array of testing protocols for both Network and Cable Testing.

Greetings. Today we’re going to take a look at a line of Bacharach products designed for the analysis of refrigerants used in HVAC work. We will have a look first at the model on the lower end of the price spectrum and then show the more advanced model and see what that extra bang you get for the buck.

Are you still using your Brass 2-Valve Manifold and gauges to analyze refrigerant systems? Do you enjoy picking up some brontosaurus ribs with the family? You might be living in the Stone Age where life is unnecessarily harder than it should be. Now I am not saying you should forgo all things analog and fully submerge yourself into a digital lifestyle, but when it comes to HVAC work, a little bit of shiny new tech never killed anyone.

Secure and reliable voice transmission is an important part of fiber network installation. When you are setting up a network you will find that you need to speak to technicians in other areas. The normal method would be to communicate via walkie-talkies to transmit information which could include network passwords or addresses. Walkie-Talkies are very popular and the ability to have others listening in on your frequency is definitely not where you want to be.

Hello all. Today we are going to take a look at a relatively complex set of instruments for the analysis of gas levels and air quality in various medical environments.
