Extech Instruments has announced its recent awards recognizing innovative
handheld test and measurement tools and a FLIR infrared camera. The honorees
were recognized as tools designed to make it easier and safer for HVACR
(heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration)/mechanical
professionals, electrical contractors, and other test equipment users to get
the job done.
HVACR The NEWS Dealer Design Awards
HVACR contractor weekly newsmagazine The Air Conditioning, Heating and
Refrigeration (ACHR) NEWS honored one FLIR and two Extech tools in their eighth
annual Dealer Design Awards. Described by editor Mike Murphy as “the only
contest of its kind in the industry where only contractors make the decision
about the award winners,” the Dealer Design awards recognize companies
designing quality products with the HVACR and IAQ (Indoor Air Quality)
contractor in mind.
In the Tools category, Extech’s HD350
Pitot Tube Anemometer & Differential Manometer took Bronze
honors. The ergonomic HVACR test instrument is one of the few tools to combine
the airflow/velocity functions of a pitot tube anemometer with the air pressure
capabilities of a precision manometer, plus temperature.
The Testing & Monitoring Products category, the FLIR E60 Wi-Fi Infrared Camera won a
Gold award with recognition for its advanced diagnostic capabilities which
include connectivity with Android and Apple tablets and smartphones.
Extech’s RHT50 Compact USB Datalogger also
won a Bronze award. Touted for extended IAQ monitoring of a job-site, the
USB-stick-sized Extech RHT50 simplifies that task with a datalogger that is
easy to use and easy to own.
Judging was conducted by a panel of independent HVACR contractors. The
judges rated entries numerically for ease of installation, maintenance,
service, overall design, uniqueness, and impact on the HVACR industry. Winners
were based on the sum total of these ratings. To learn more about the Dealer
