HVAC PT Chart is an electronic pressure temperature calculator that allows HVAC technicians and contractors to quickly look up the temperature and corresponding pressure for 100+ common HVAC refrigerants including both bubble and dew versions of azeotropic (mixture) refrigerants. This is the only PT Chart app that allows you to email complete PT chart lists, refrigerant properties, and your inputted values/results. This is a unique PT Chart app for the following reasons: 1. Works on both the Apple iPhone and iPad (and adjusts its screen according to the mobile device screen size, whether you are running it on the iPhone 13 or the iPad) 2. Optimized for iOS 16 3. Includes 100+ refrigerants 4. Allows you to input the temperature and then the corresponding pressure will display and vice versa. 5. Allows you to also use a slider control to specify the exact pressure or temperature to see the corresponding temperature or pressure 6. Displays a list of pressure/temperature values in 1 degree increments 7. Allows you to select the atmospheric pressure so as to show the true pressure-temperature relationship even for high elevations 8. Includes a database of 1000+ cities world-wide with elevation data that is used to derive atmospheric pressure 9. Display common properties for the selected refrigerant (oil type, GWP, composition, critical temp, boiling temp, and more...) 10. Email project inputs and properties for the selected refrigerant 11. Email the full pressure/temperature list for the selected refrigerant 12. Display units in both English and Metric 13. Includes both dew and bubble versions of any azeotropic (mixture) refrigerants 14. This app now includes the HVAC Equipment Locator. Click here for details: http://bit.ly/1yTq539

YJACK VIEW® provides seamless integration with YJACK® and TITAN® devices offering a complete HVAC/R diagnostic solution (hardware purchase required). Supported Hardware: TITANMAX® Digital Manifold YJACK PATH® Range Extender YJACK® Temperature Clamp & Strap YJACK DEW® Psychrometer YJACK PRESS® Pressure Gauge YJACK VAC® Vacuum Gauge YJACK AMP® Current Probe YJACK MANO® Manometer YJACK FLOW® Anemometer P51-870 TITAN® Digital Manifold 68864 Wireless Refrigerant Scale 6860x Combustion Analyzer Receive and analyze live data including pressures, temperatures, vacuum level, psychrometric data, duct air flow and speed, duct pressure drops, fuel pressure settings, weight readings, and electrical current. CREATE/MANAGE/SHARE SERVICE REPORTS Create customizable PDF reports of system measurements and service information while storing past jobs and reports. The user profile feature stores user information that is automatically generated in the header of each report. ENHANCED DATALOGGING Record data from one or all current session types as desired. Choose from a variety of sampling rates depending on user need. Live updates to selected devices, units, elevation, refrigerant selection appended to existing data logs. Start and stop datalogging at will, save for later, or share via email for remote analysis. PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE View System Pressure and Temperature data on up to 4 systems at once. Select refrigerants for calculating system properties including saturation temperatures and system superheat/subcooling. Manipulate data view types, including large number format, analog gauge (pressure only) or line graph. STATIC PRESSURE Select and record pressure drops across multiple different locations like the filter, the coil, external static pressures, and gas pressure readings to upload into a report for the customer all in one session. EVACUATION Monitor system vacuum as reported by a TITAN® digital manifold, wired vacuum sensor or the YJACK VAC® Wireless Vacuum Gauge. Adjustable Vacuum Pressure Target and Hold timer ensures all refrigerant, moisture, and non-condensable gases are removed during evacuation. LEAK TEST Monitor pressure changes during pressurized leak testing to verify that system is tight. PSYCHROMETRICS Analyze psychrometric data on up to 4 systems at once. Ensure maximum home comfort through wireless supply and return relative humidity, dry bulb, wet bulb, dew point temperatures and enthalpy calculations. Compare system rated capacity to actual output for overall system efficiency. CHARGING & RECOVERY Display scale readings from the Wireless Charging Scale to accurately charge systems or determine system charge amount through recovery. View readings from your Wireless Refrigerant Scale with simultaneous gross weight and weight change fields. ELECTRICAL Electrical session displays readings from YJACK AMP® Wireless Current Probe while monitoring AC current and inrush. These readings are used for calculating power draw and EER. ANEMOMETER Anemometer session displays readings from YJACK FLOW® Wireless Anemometer Probe. Quick one-line verification from duct-to-duct comparison or full system calculations using AHRI40 standard for air measurement, to compare installed system airflow to published standard. AVAILABLE DEVICES Monitor the data and battery life of your devices. Create a perimeter of devices by placing YJACK PATH® devices periodically around the work area, boosting the signal of all nearby devices. COMBUSTION Capture results from your combustion analyzer and include the data in your job report.
