Fieldpiece JL3LC — a professional wireless pipe clamp temperature probe for large-diameter pipes (3/4" to 4 1/8" OD), featuring patented Rapid Rail® sensor technology for fast, accurate readings sent directly to the Job Link® mobile app or Fieldpiece SMAN® digital manifolds. Applications Suction and liquid line temperature measurement on large commercial air conditioning and refrigeration systems. Precise real-time superheat and subcooling determination. Diagnostics and service of large HVAC/R installations including VRF/VRV systems and industrial refrigeration. Quick heat-exchanger performance testing (evaporators and condensers). Key features Rapid Rail® technology — patented sensor design closes the thermocouple circuit using the pipe itself as the conductor, delivering a stable, highly accurate temperature reading within seconds. Wide pipe size range — fits pipe OD from 3/4" to 4 1/8" (19.05 mm to 104.78 mm), making it ideal for commercial and industrial HVAC/R installations. Long wireless range — advanced radio communication transmits readings up to 305 m (1,000 ft) directly to a smartphone, tablet, or SMAN® manifold. Immune to external interference — ambient temperature, wind, and moisture on the pipe do not affect the reading, ensuring fully repeatable results. Ergonomics and convenience — one-hand clamp operation; strong spring holds the clamp firmly against the pipe without straps or hook-and-loop fasteners.
