PB Motor Tech BMT 220LBS Digital Refrigerant Charging Scale – Portable HVAC Freon Scale

Overview

The PBMT 220LBS electronic refrigerant charging scale combines rugged construction with precise measurement for HVAC technicians on the move. Built from high‑quality aluminum and finished with a rubber‑coated platform, this scale feels sturdy in use and resistant to the rigors of daily job sites. A large, backlit LCD display provides clear readings, even in dim workshop corners or vehicle interiors, so you can keep working without straining your eyes.

Performance you can trust

Designed to support real‑world tasks, the scale handles up to 220 lbs (100 kg) with a reading accuracy of ≤ ±0.05%. Three convenient units—kilograms, ounces, and pounds—can be switched in seconds, simplifying compatibility with different refrigerant management workflows. The 9" × 9" platform offers a stable base for a range of refrigerant recovery tanks, helping to minimize spills and misreads during charging sessions.

Two design strengths you’ll notice

• No auto‑shutoff with auto‑zero: The scale avoids unexpected shutdowns during a measurement, while the auto‑zero feature sets the valve to zero after weighing for consistent records.
• Rugged, portable design: A heavy‑duty, included case makes transport to job sites easy, and the rubber coating on the platform provides slip resistance and protection against incidental bumps.

Why it fits your workflow

Whether you’re balancing charges in a service van or in a shop bay, this scale is built to travel with you. It operates on a 9V battery (battery not included), keeping you flexible when outlets aren’t readily available. The wide, backlit display keeps measurements readable at a glance, so you can focus on the task rather than the readout.

What you might notice in practice

• Reliable weight readings for a variety of refrigerant recovery tanks.
• Quick unit changes to match your preferred measurement system.
• Easy zeroing after each measurement to maintain accuracy over multiple tests.

In short, the PBMT scale is designed to support precise, on‑site refrigerant charging with a balance of durability, portability, and clear feedback. It offers possibilities for streamlined workflows and repeatable results, without promising guarantees. Consider it as a capable partner for daily HVAC charging tasks.
