YELLOW JACKET 220 lb Refrigerant Scale — High-Precision Programmable HVAC Charging Scale, 5 g Resolution

YELLOW JACKET's 220 lb programmable refrigerant scale is a high-precision HVAC charging and recovery scale built for accurate, repeatable refrigerant transfers and easy field use.

Designed for HVAC technicians who need dependable weighing during charging or recovery, this electronic refrigerant scale pairs a robust aluminum base with programmable setpoints, a clear LCD with tilt bracket, and a rugged transport case. It supports multiple units, provides audible alerts when a preset amount is reached, and delivers fine resolution for small transfers—so you can fill or recover with confidence.

How precise is this scale for refrigerant charging?

The scale offers laboratory-grade accuracy suitable for most field charging jobs, with resolution down to 5 g and a tight accuracy tolerance. That level of precision helps minimize overcharge or undercharge during delicate refrigerant transfers.

• Capacity: 220 lb (100 kg)
• Resolution: 5 g (0.2 oz)
• Accuracy: ±0.05% plus 10 g
• Multiple unit displays: g / kg / oz / lb

What programmable and safety features keep jobs consistent?

The unit includes a programmable setpoint and an audible alert so you can preset the exact amount to charge or recover; the scale will beep when that target is reached. It also incorporates overcapacity protection, an auto-shutoff to save battery, and adjustable backlight behavior for different jobsite lighting.

• 12-button remote programming for set charging/recovery values
• Audible beep when preset amount is attained
• Displays "FULL" if weight limit exceeded to prevent damage
• Auto-off after inactivity and configurable backlight

How durable and portable is the YELLOW JACKET refrigerant scale?

The scale combines an aluminum alloy frame with a 9" x 9" non-slip weighing surface, making it sturdy for repeated field use while preventing tanks from sliding. It ships with a hard waterproof, dustproof case and a 9V battery so you can start work immediately and protect the instrument during transport.

• Durable aluminum construction for long-term use
• 9" x 9" platform with rubber pads to secure tanks
• Included waterproof, dustproof carrying case
• 9V battery included—up to ~40 hours runtime

How easy is it to read and operate on a jobsite?

The bright LCD with a 110° tilt bracket improves visibility in low-light environments and allows hands-free viewing when placed on the ground. Intuitive controls and selectable units let technicians switch between measurement systems quickly during multi-task workflows.

• Large LCD screen with adjustable tilt bracket
• Selectable units: kg/g, lb/oz, etc.
• Simple remote keypad for fast configuration
• Backlight options for dark conditions

Who this is for: HVAC service technicians and contractors who need a portable, accurate refrigerant scale for charging and recovery tasks. It fits fieldwork where repeatable setpoint control, rugged construction, and clear readouts are required—ideal for service vans, jobsite carts, or shop benches handling all common refrigerants.
