JB Industries WC-2 CLIMATE CLASS Wireless Temperature Clamps

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing JB Industries’ Climate Class Wireless Psychrometer. This device is capable of accurately measuring relative humidity, dew point temperature, wet bulb temperature, and dry bulb temperature of a HVACR system. The psychrometer displays these readings on an easy-to-view OLED screen. The psychrometers work alone or wirelessly send information to a JB Industries’ DM4-W Wireless Digital  Manifold, an iOS smart device, or an Android smart device.

Specifications
