ManTooth digital gauge wins top US honour

ManTooth-appUSA: Tools manufacturer Yellow Jacket has won a top US award for its ManTooth wireless P/T gauge.

Introduced last year, the wireless gauge has won a Gold award for excellence in the electronics category in the 12th annual Dealer Design Awards Program sponsored by the US magazine Air Conditioning Heating & Refrigeration News.

An independent panel of contractors reviewed more than 100 entries submitted by hvacr tool and equipment manufacturers for the 2015 competition.

The Yellow Jacket ManTooth is a wireless gauge that uses a manifold/Bluetooth connection to send temperature and pressure measurements directly to a technician’s smart phone or tablet device.

“We are honoured to receive this award,” said Michael Lanners, vice president of domestic sales and marketing for Yellow Jacket. “We designed the ManTooth wireless gauge to meet the growing demand for fast, efficient and accurate readings that today’s hvacr professionals have come to expect. Our ManTooth products are just the first step in a digital revolution that is transforming the hvacr servicing industry.”
