BITZER is pleased to announce the first free refrigerant pressure temperature relationship application designed for iPhone, Blackberry, and Android devices.
The application is an intuitive saturated pressure temperature reference wheel that focuses on the most common refrigerants found in AC and refrigeration systems. Instead of scrolling through many refrigerants rarely used, this app provides users with the ability to customize the app by selecting the refrigerant that they most commonly use. Furthermore, this is the only PT app with the ability to use imperial and metric units at the same time. And best of all… it’s free!
Refrigerants currently available (check back for updates):
R-11, R-113, R-114, R-115, R-116, R-12, R-123, R-124, R-125, R-1270, R-13, R-134a, R-14, R-142b, R-143a, R-152a, R-21, R-218, R-22, R-227ea, R-23, R-236fa, R-245fa, R-290 (Propane), R-32, R-401A, R-401B, R-401C, R-402A, R-402B, R-403A, R-403B, R-404A, R-405A, R-406A, R-407A, R-407B, R-407C, R-407D, R-407E, R-408A, R-409A, R-409B, R-41, R-410A, R-410B, R-411A, R-411B, R-412A, R-413A, R-414A, R-414B, R-415A, R-415B, R-416A, R-417A, R-418A, R-419A, R-420A, R-421A, R-421B, R-422A, R-422B, R-422C, R-422D, R-427A, R-500, R-502, R-507A, R-508A, R-508B, R-600a, R-717 (Ammonia / NH3), R-744 (Carbon Dioxide / CO2).
Pressure Units Available:
IP: psi(absolute), psi (gage)
SI: bar(absolute), bar(gage), mPA(gage), kPA(gage)
Main Function:
Each refrigerant is represented by a “dot” above the pressure wheel. For touch screen devices, swipe left or right across the screen to find the refrigerant required (other devices have left and right arrow keys to change refrigerant). The color of the refrigerant will match the official code for that refrigerant. The oil type, global warming potential, safety group, and corresponding pressure temperature wheel are also displayed.
For touch screen devices, swipe the temp – pressure wheel left or right to view more saturated pressure and temperature values (other devices have left and right arrow keys). The units are specified by using the buttons on the sides. If a unit is highlighted green, then the wheel beside it displays values in that unit. Additionally, the font color of the wheel will match the font color of the button selected. Any combination of units can be selected to view; for example, Celsius and psig or Fahrenheit and bar can be displayed at the same time. Additional arrow buttons have been also been provided on the left and right side to move to the very end of the wheel.
Select Refrigerants:
Push the “Refrigerants” button (or use the main menu button for that device and select the "Refrigerants" sub menu). Check refrigerants on and off to narrow down the list of refrigerants available. Each refrigerant that has a checkmark will be available to view from the main screen (and represented by a “dot”). Some devices have the ability to move the refrigerants up or down and change the order in which they show on the main screen. The top refrigerant on this sub menu will be the farthest left refrigerant on the main screen (and the bottom refrigerant will be the farthest right).
Select Units:
Push the "Gear" button (or use the main menu button for that device and select the "Unit" sub menu). Select the desired Metric / SI units which will display on the left side of the app or select the US Customary / Imperial units for the right side of the app.
More Information:
Additional information can also be found for each refrigerant by pressing "Notepad" button (or use the main menu button for that device and select the "Refrigerant info" sub menu). Here information such as molecular mass, critical temperature, critical pressure and other valuable data can be found.
