HVAC Tool Review | Fieldpiece SM480V

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this review video from HVAC Tech Tips, we got our hands on a Fieldpiece SM480V or more commonly known as the SMAN 480. We do an unboxing, then take the SMAN for a test run and show how to connect all the job link probes + show all the new features and wireless capabilities!

    Thanks! Got the gauges but don’t have the other tools, was wondering exactly how all that worked together. I really appreciate it, great video!

    I just stumbled here (this video) and love the channel. Subscribed! I am a fairly new tech and looking at the SMAN480V, but I’ve got to ask: how does it know the target superheat? Currently I look at the rating plate (if available) and plug it into an app or use the old fashioned chart to determine.

    Oh…and one more question. Does the SM480V detect what refrigerant is in the system? In other words…if an R22 unit was converted to 407C and you walk up on it unknowingly, will the gauges detect that particular refrigerant and tell you?

    I'm a home owner who is learning how to do HVAC. I purchased an SM480V and one JL3RH probe. My question is do I need two of these probes? My understanding is the dry bulb type K clip that comes with the SMAN is used for the outside condenser temp and then you use one JL3RH as a wet bulb on the return air vent. So why do you have two JL3RH probes? PS I will be checking my main home AC plus my garage mini split system with this gear. Any tips appreciated!

    Your review would have much more credibility if you could bother to know what unit you actually have. It's also not a good advertisement for your work ethic if climbing into the van to look at your gauges is too much trouble.
