Join us as Bert interviews Mark Hucko from Inficon at their booth during the 5th Annual HVAC/R Training Symposium. Mark highlights some of Inficon's latest innovative and disruptive tools for HVAC/R technicians.
We discuss Inficon's new WayTech Pro scale which allows precise charging down to 3 grams, can now handle larger commercial tanks up to 275 lbs, and has added ports to enable critical charging of small canisters - no more need for a separate scale!
Also featured is Inficon's new FlueMax combustion analyzer launched in October 2023. It provides a full screen display of measurements and allows reporting via a QR code, eliminating the need for printed receipts.

Hey guys! Bert Here with HVAC school and we are at the fifth annual. Symposium I think I Got that right. this is the fifth. It's awesome.

A lot of repeat faces. You've been here four times with us. Yep, so showing back up every year to support what we're doing, actually supporting everyone here getting education so that's awesome. But Mark with Inficon go ahead.

introduce yourself, tell us what you're here, what you brought. Yeah, so I'm Mark Hucko with Inficon? Um yeah, this is our fourth Symposium that we've been here. I'm a regional sales manager. Um, you know we're here highlighting some of our products and uh, really highlighting some of the advantages that these products can really give a technician in the field.

We do have two new products. uh that I'd like to really highlight right now. Of course everyone knows us for our Leak Detectors and The Leak Detectors have been Rock Solid for a really long time, but yep they are. We all use them, we have.

We have two new products that I think are going to be uh, pretty Innovative and disruptive into the field. One is our scale. This you guys want to see the scale. Can you see it All right? Check it out.

This is our We Tech Pro Um the nice thing about the We: Tech Pro is one it could be wired or Wireless so you can hook up your smartphone uh to this for use. um but the other nice thing is we've increased the capacity to 275 lbs now. Okay so you can use shows that right on there. Yep, so you you can use some of the larger commercial tanks on here now.

Okay, and the other nice thing about it, dang, it's durable. Yeah right. it's durable and it's lightweight. I Love that.

Okay, okay um but the key advantage to this is we can now go down to 3 Gams and when we can go down to three Gr, we can actually do a critical charge of R290 and R600. So what we have here is a little Port where we can mount a fitting. What? Yep, you can mount a fitting and then you can connect your hose and then you would, uh, thread on your R290 or R600 canister. Yeah, and now you can do your critical charge and you can change the unit of measurement you know, from pounds of ounces so you don't have a have to have a separate scale for no, the critical charge? no not anymore.

Tiny canisters. Yep, pounds, ounces, ounces, and then kilograms and even down to grams. Holy cow. Okay, so it's going to give you all the way down to 3 G Very precise.

The other. The other thing is, you know a lot of the manufacturers of the the refrigerant actually have different thread sizes. Okay, so we will be providing a kit that is sold separately. With all the different thread sizes, we have four different ones to where you can attach that on to the right refrigerant.

Oh okay, Yep. so whatever manufacturer, whatever thread size you're using, or even they using reverse thread, then you'll be able to use that as well. Nice. Mhm.

Okay, so that's a way. Tech Pro That's and this is new isn't it? This is new. It's actually not available yet. It's going to be available in April of this year.
So and in April this year, where can it be found? Where do wey? Where do we buy this? You can buy it at your local distributor. Buy it. Yep. Yep.

You can buy it anywhere. Nice. That's cool. I Love it.

The other new thing that we have is a combustion analyzer and we launched this combustion analyzer in October of 2023. Okay, uh, this is called the Flu Mate. Nice thing about Flu Mate, it does give you a full screen full display of all your measurements. Yep, so you got your o O2 Co calculating your CO2 levels.

Nice. Um, you can field replace your O2 sensor. It also has a nice uh uh, water trap here. Okay, you know nice visual to where you are going to get some condensation and some moisture in here so you can easily, uh, you know, replace that.

Okay, but the key advantage to this is you can now get rid of your printer because what you can do now is you can actually scan a QR code via an app and I'll go through this right now. I Just hit print and I'm ready to go with my QR code. So free app on Apple or Android Okay, you just go ahead scan that and now all your reporting is done digitally and then you can just send that to the customer or you can send it to your customer it exactly. So any reporting you know, no more print receipt taping receipt to their furnace or the boiler.

Now everything's done electronically. That's awesome. Wow and uh, you said this was fall of last year? October Yeah, uh, how's the feedback been? Feedback has been really good and a lot of our customers like the electronic advantage to that now. Um, and they also like that you are getting a full display.
