DIGITAL REFRIGERANT SCALE

2015 ©OEMTOOLS
PURPOSE
The OEM Digital Weight Scale is ideal for servicing HVAC and Automotive A/C
systems. Refrigerant can be measured in standard and metric units and has a
built in alarm to indicate when the Scale Capacity has been exceeded.
The 1990 amendments to the United States Clean Air Act mandate that all
personnel who service refrigerant systems must be trained and certified.
Fines are in place for violations and compliance is now being monitored
by the U.S. EPA.
Do Not Vent Refrigerant to the Atmosphere. Use Appropriate Recovery
Equipment.
Confirm system refrigerant type before servicing vehicle. Cross
contamination of refrigerants can cause damage to A/C system, service
tools and equipment. Do not blend refrigerants in a system or in the same
container.

SETUP
1. Place the unit on a firm and level service. The platform and Control
Head can be used the case or outside the case.
2. Remove the Battery Cover from the rear of the Contol Head by
compressing the tab at the base of the Battery Cover.

Do Not Leave Dead
Batteries in the Unit
Replace the battery if the battery indicator flashes in the top right hand
corner of the dispay.
Never Exceed the rated capacity
If the display reads “FULL” immediately remove the object being weighed
from the Scale to prevent damage.
STATIC DISCHARGE: Climates in some parts of the world are conducive
to creating static electric build up (ESD). Your scale has been designed to
eliminate the damaging effects of ESD. In some extreme cases, ESD will
be apparent on your scale by a lack of response or an inability to turn off
the unit. In the rare case that this occurs, simply disconnect the battery,
wait 1 minute and reconnect the battery. The scale will “reboot” itself and
operate normally once the unit is turned on.
If the platform is used in the case, make certain nothing touches the case,
Control Box or platform as false readys can occur.
OPERATION
1. Press the Z/T Button to clear and zero the Scale.
2. Center the Cylinder on the Platform.
3. Start the charging process by opening the Cylinder and Manifold
Gauge Valves
4. When charging is complete, close the Cylinder and Manifold Gauge
Valves.
5. Remove the Cylinder from the Scale and press the ON/Off
Button.
MAINTENANCE
1. Always store the Digital Refrigerant Scale Set in a well-protected
area where it will not be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive
vapors, abrasive dust, or any other harmful elements.
2. Keep the Digital Refrigerant Scale clean for better and safer
performance.
3. Replace 9V Battery as necessary.
