تعليمات التشغيل
The Mastercool 52246 calculator simplifies subcool and superheat measurements into three main steps:
- Select Refrigerant:
- بعد تشغيل الجهاز، استخدم UP و تحت arrow buttons to scroll through the list of 37 pre-programmed refrigerants (e.g., R22, R32, R134a, R410A).
- اضغط على يدخل button to confirm your selection. The device will remember the last refrigerant used for convenience.
- Enter Pressure:
- Read the pressure from your manifold gauges.
- استخدم UP و تحت arrow buttons on the calculator to adjust the displayed pressure to match your gauge reading. The calculator supports pressure displays in Kg/cm², MPa, Bar, and PSI (0-600 PSI).
- Clamp ترموكبل:
- بشكل آمن clamp the K-Type thermocouple onto the appropriate refrigerant line (e.g., suction line for superheat, liquid line for subcool).
- The actual temperature will be displayed in the upper right corner of the LCD.
The calculator will instantly display the calculated subcool or superheat temperature based on your inputs.
وظائف إضافية:
- Toggle Subcool/Superheat: اضغط على SH/SC button to switch between displaying subcool and superheat values.
- وظيفة الانتظار: اضغط على يمسك button to freeze the current readings on the display. This allows you to record the values even if the thermocouple is disconnected or the unit is turned off. The held data will remain until the instrument is powered off.
- اختيار الوحدة: اضغط على الوحدات button to cycle through temperature units (°F or °C) and pressure units (Kg/cm², MPa, Bar, PSI).
