Wireless Job Link Probes & Test Kit Use to Check a Refrigerant Charge!

In This HVACR Training Video, I show how to Use the Fieldpiece Wireless Job Link System Charge and Air Test Kit in order to check a Refrigerant Charge. Always make sure to turn on the temp and pressure probes along with the psychrometers before connecting them to the system in order to check the calibration in the Job Link App. Supervision is needed by a licensed HVACR Tech while doing this as Experience and Apprenticeship garners Wisdom and Safety.

What type of gloves are you using in this video to protect your hands from potential liquid refrigerant burns?

[@inertiaspinner555]

I’ve been contemplating purchasing job link but after watching your video I’ve placed my order. Your channel is invaluable to me as a source of education

Thanks Running Coyote!

[@michaelthurber2660]

Great presentation. I have been waiting so long for something like this tool to come out. Thank You!

[@waldronelectricpittsburgh1162]

As of 7/2023 Fieldpiece tech support is very poor, they have new guys that don’t know how to teach you how to use this setup. Best to watch a lot of vids. Also new batteries are key or your instruments will drop out of the app and go blank and drive you crazy . Take batteries out for winter time so they don’t explode and don’t use Duracell or Energizer they leak, use the Panasonics alkaline that usually says leak prevention on them and there almost as good as the Duracell/energizer.

[@raulgarcia528]

[@seanmathews1826]

I have seen a co worker using this system. It's another thing that is very neat to see in action while at the same time totally unnecessary. Not to mention really expensive.

[@CertifiedGasSystems]

Thanks for teaching by the book. I strive for excellence in all my work and your vids help me gain more and more very detailed knowledge that very often, I see overlooked. I've repaired many units that prior techs condemned in order to sell a new unit. I know, less $ for me but in reality, more $ for me as I am flooded with great referrals and therefore stopped advertising back in 2004. BTW, if same video was with a fixed orifice, are there wireless for dry and wet bulb and what success have you had regarding the range of signal from the inside to outside? Thanks again for your effort & time in producing these vids.

[@acservicetechchannel]

Hey 11Sprinkles, yes the two psychrometers can be used, one as dry bulb and one as wet bulb. It seems that 50-60 feet through multiple floors is when mine cut in and out, thanks

Love this kit, don’t use the invoicing stuff, but the PDFs you can send back to my shop, store under a customers name, it super valuable, need to get the adapters for charging, it’s a bit of a pain in the ass right now

[@acservicetechchannel]

I use tees when connecting. I have them listed at amazon.com/shop/acservicetech thanks and they are the same as the ones used in the cps vacuum gauge set, thanks!

[@moeviera1012]

Can you put and low loss fitting on the liquid line probe?

[@chasekingsbury8245]

Anyone have these long term? How do they hold up? Looking at either these or the sman gauges

[@gregob-team4642]

Quick question when getting superheat and subcooling measurements Isn't the best way to take those measurements when you're getting superheat is to take a temperature of your suction Line 6 inches coming out of the evaporator. To get a true superheat. Reading for evaporator superheat and when getting subcooling you would take it. 6in coming out of the condenser on the liquid line. Or does it matter?

[@Gameboy_Steve]

[@viper22304]

thanks for the awesome video. Can you get a print out of the measurement for copy to the customer?

[@user-zf7vv8lr8p]

What is the range on the temperature probe?!

[@alfredcasasola]

Could you please provide a video on how to calibrate these instruments. I followed the instructions and the one that is somehow challenging to calibrate is the psychrometer. Thanks.

[@JuanSanchez-qo6xo]

Hi what T fitting did you use? I couldn't find it in your list of tools so if you could link me to it that was be great

[@ThermalSolutionsHVACR]

Did you find where to buy?

[@sergioatorres1764]

Where can I get those t's

[@Pennconst101]

Exact manufactures data has that sub cooling for that refrigerant. This is a retrofit to MO 99. Doesn’t that affect the recommended sub cooling?

[@peterreuland9615]

How many wireless temperature clamps, pressure sensors, electrical clamp meters and psychometers can be connected to the app on a single iPad or Android tablet at one time? Is it limited to two of each sensor type? Would I have to have the app installed on a second tablet to view any extra wireless instruments at the same time?

[@xrayneoo]

Great video. I saw on the iPod reflection you were using an umbrella, if you can recommend or post a link I'm looking for a working umbrella.

[@acservicetechchannel]

ha ha nice, just trying to get a good pic for the video while still outside. It was too noisy inside the building to do the rest of the video, thanks

[@riceball4u172]

Love all your videos. Can this be use as a micron gauge to check for leak?

[@johnd4348]

yes you can I don't have a set, but another tech has one and he used it to find a leak.

[@geraldvaldez6036]

Was wondering if it comes with the adapter, just in case you will add or recover?

[@deathntaxeset]

My joblink app has no metering device selection. No target subcooling, no heart to tap for your tool. Did this change in later versions of the app?

[@stephwaylonwells3218]

👍

[@msclecarcrzy]

My question is can I buy the sm380v or sm480v and still use the air sensors with it through the app?

[@griffinschlabach7639]

What gloves do you use when working with refrigerant I burnt my hands really bad a few months ago and am looking to get some gloves to keep me safe

[@LichaelMewis]

How do I check this with a mini split system that does not have a liquid service port? Also how many indoor Psychrometer Probes do I need? I am using an Sman480V. It comes with a wired dry bulb. I was using that for the outdoor temp sensor, and I was going to use one of the wet bulb psychrometers for the inside mini split head output temp. Do I need a second wet bulb psychrometer for the indoor mini split head intake temp as well?

[@GotchaplumberGotchahvac]

Scale of 1-10(1 low; 10high). How would you rate this product? Thk u.

[@arealmaintenanceandrepairl1103]

how you feel about the apps that recommend weather indoor coil needs cleaning or out door unit needs cleaners i forgot the name

[@UltraHydrophobiccoat]

The screw caps of pressure probes are so short that it’s really hard to hook on to service valves especially for R410a units which have higher pressures; and temperature probes are keeping showing OPEN. I submitted the defect designs to them but got no response

[@mattzurzola4664]

I’ve been using these for the past two months and my only issue is the signal is not that great I lose it at about 50 feet

[@acservicetechchannel]

Hey Matt, the JL2 transmits the signal further if used with the app, thanks!

[@mattzurzola4664]

AC Service Tech LLC I bought it and I use that with the SC 660 and SMAN 460

[@acservicetechchannel]

Matt, I apologize, I wasn't watching what video you were commenting on. For whatever reason, I was thinking the SMAN460 superheat video. Sorry about that!

[@mattzurzola4664]

AC Service Tech LLC Yeah I was checking charge yesterday and for some reason even when I’m close my reading disappear for a couple seconds and then they come back every so often

[@acservicetechchannel]

That happens with me too but it seems only for 1 second or so and doesn't happen that that often. I would call fieldpiece if you feel it happens more than it should. It don't think it should happen constantly, thanks Matt!

[@saturninorangel2355]

Fieldpiece measure and they leaking you have idea what I can do when I hook it up they leaking

[@saturninorangel2355]

I buy those tools they tools they leak

[@spiromatsikas2473]

Do you need to calibrate these ever so often?

[@apr9286]

If these where connected to appion valve core remover, i can charge refrigerant into the system with just a hose to the tank and a ball valve at the core valve right? And manifold gauges will be something in the past.

[@acservicetechchannel]

yes for breaking the vacuum with refrigerant from the bottle but for adding refrigerant into an system with refrigerant in it, you could use the tee like you see in this video. I have this linked at amazon.com/shop/acservicetech and the t also comes with the cps vacuum gauge I have linked, thanks!

[@angelojed2196]

Are the valves low loss?

[@MrGabriel1973]

do i have to download any app ? it is free?

[@SombraLocs]

Which app would you recommend using with these probes, Joblink or MeasureQuick?

[@soleilsoleil8287]

Hello how re you sir ! thx for your videos ... I d like to buy some good smart probes kits and would like to ha a recommendation my job is to check systems that they re set within ranges and makeing sure hvacr systems are electrically , pressure and temperature parameters good and no leaks and ventilation is ok. would you advise me please I M FROM Canada .

[@aape6697]

It doesn’t calculate delta t? Why not it’d be simple to implement

[@Bill_CBR]

It does calculate delta T. Video was created 5 years ago. Application has been updated since it was created and does that calculation as well as long term data logging, like for up to 7 days.

[@dcj2045]

Please advise what Smart gauges should I get the best one with lot of options to help me charge correctly an HVAC system.

[@acservicetechchannel]

These job link probes are nice for the seasoned tech but if you are just starting out, I usually just recommend standard compound gauges like I have linked at www.amazon.com/shop/acservicetech

[@mattzurzola4664]

Quick question what part number is the T to add refrigerant with

[@acservicetechchannel]

Hey Matt, it is the 11th row down on the left, made by cps at - amazon.com/shop/acservicetech --- The one made by yellow jacket as I read does not come with the valve core depressor in it and not sure if there is a seat to stop and hold it if you added so maybe just go with the cps one, thanks

[@WreckingCr3W2]

Is the Delta T very accurate since you aren't checking right above the coil?

[@acservicetechchannel]

I check within a few feet before and after the coil and use duct plugs to cover the holes, unless the return is close and a supply is very close, thanks!

[@emilionunez4566]

How do get the CFM to add it to the app?

[@WreckingCr3W2]

Would you use this set up as your everyday setup? I have a standard yellow jacket set of guages and I have a separate meter and clamp for checking target SH and SC. Considered buying Testo or Sman digital guages before I saw this and now I'm having second thoughts.

[@acservicetechchannel]

Some techs do and this will give you insights into the airflow when you use the two psychrometers, thanks!

[@acservicetechchannel]

I don't seem to no but they should be very close upon startup. What kind of issues are you having!

[@sergioterrones8724]

@@acservicetechchannel I actually figured it out, you have to give the app access to your location in order for the probes to get picked up by the app. I really don't like giving any apps any access to my location, or in that case any access to any type of files on my phone or tablet. I guess I'll have to give the app access while I do my work. Not too happy about that but ohwell. Thanks for your reply. Keep it coming with your awesome videos. I can't wait for your hard cover book to come out :)

[@acservicetechchannel]

Glad to help, thanks Sergio!

[@edmelzark1069]

On your training videos for the Field Piece Job Link you don't show or mention the Wet Bulb or Dry Bulb only the Delta T, why is that. Am I missing something?

[@acservicetechchannel]

I believe in this video that I was checking subcooling and so I didn't need to determine a target superheat which is needed on systems with a fixed orifice metering device. This system had a txv so I checked the charge level with subcooling, thanks!

[@valcao9844]

i couldn't find that tee you used in the video, wonder where i could get this in canada?

[@caru3257]

Mantooth from Yellow Jacket has the port for charging. Unfortunately, the phone connector got loose on mine and they may still be in recycle bin.

[@ichampi929]

How do you check for micron or can you check mircon?

[@acservicetechchannel]

You would need a vacuum gauge to read the micron level. Here is a video on that kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGW0p5qmjquGb7c

[@truckinforever985]

HI How would you configure it with king valves no core depressors

[@acservicetechchannel]

I would do the same thing with the same tee fitting attached to the end of the probe. The valve depressor on the inside just won't have to touch on anything. Have you looked up "acservicetech three position service valves" ?

[@Gameboy_Steve]

Hello sir. Do you like them? I am going to invest some. I been looking at the Testos ones.

[@acservicetechchannel]

You cant go wrong with either testo or fieldpiece probes. I just happen to have fieldpiece and they work pretty well, thanks!

[@Racasticabomg]

Hola buenos días podrías traducir en español subtitulado de antemano gracias

[@acservicetechchannel]

Thanks Rafael!

[@RonaldRegan314]

Are they low loss?

[@acservicetechchannel]

These are not low loss. However, the point of low loss is to not loose the refrigerant in the hoses to low loss fittings on these would defeat the purpose and add extra refrigerant that is removed into the low loss fitting during connection and disconnection, thanks!

[@JulioGarcia-jl5kx]

Can i get info on that tee ??

[@acservicetechchannel]

Hey Julio, I got this tee when I purchased my cps vacuum gauge as it's included. Here is a link on amazon to the tee but it is a little expensive. It is odd that this fitting is not an easy one to find by itself with a valve core depressor and two schrader valves. Tee- amzn.to/2Pj594v - cps vacuum gauge- amzn.to/2Pah7NB
