Sauermann introduces smart wireless tools

UK: Sauermann has moved into the field of wireless tools with the Si-RM3 smart wireless manifold, Si-RV3 vacuum probe and Si-RM13 combined manifold.

The Si-RM3 manifold comes with two pressure probes to measure high-side and low-side pressure and two temperature probes to simultaneously provide real-time superheat/sub cooling calculations. A second connection allows charging of the system, and the built-in Schrader core prevents leaks during connection/ disconnects.

Si-Manifold software is provided that instantly displays condensation/evaporation temperatures for up to 124 refrigerants.

The Si-RV3 supports the safe evacuation of refrigeration systems and heat pumps with accurate measurements. Its Pirani sensor provides precise deep vacuum measurements and is designed to accurately and quickly measure vacuum levels from 25,000 to 5 micron in eight different scales (micron, Pa, hPa, mbar, Torr, mmHg, inHg, inH2O). It also provides H20 evaporation temperature on the application software in real-time.

Both smart wireless devices come with Bluetooth technology and Si-Manifold App software for iOS and Android that provides data logging, tightness testing, pressure target settings, H20 evaporation temperature, and a vacuum function. They also allow reports to be exported in PDF, CSV and XML formats and have gauge, table or graphic visualisations.

In addition to the digital probes, the Si-RM13 also comes with an analogue manifold and flexible hoses.
