CPS Products Previews Next-Gen BlackMax Lineup at AHR Expo 2026
CPS Products unveiled the next generation of its user-driven BlackMax premium tools. Now entering production, these innovations were shown publicly for the first time at AHR, giving attendees an exclusive hands-on preview before they become available through distribution later in 2026.
The new lineup includes:
BlackMax BMD200 4-Valve Digital Manifold
The foundation of the BlackMax platform features a customizable full-screen display, wireless connectivity and rugged jobsite construction. Includes automated calculations and support for over 100 refrigerants — including A2L options. Finished with metal control knobs and stainless-steel fittings, the BMD200A is designed to feel solid in hand and deliver dependable performance day after day.
BTM200 Wireless Temperature Clamps and BVG215 Wireless Vacuum Gauge
A connected set of tools built to simplify core workflows like diagnostics, evacuation and commissioning. Built for the user and designed to reduce setup time and eliminate cord clutter, these tools deliver clearer readings, stronger accuracy and real-time visibility.
The BlackMax BTM200 Wireless Temperature Clamps deliver fast, cordless temperature readings and transmit them directly to the BMD200 Digital Manifold for immediate system visibility. Using Line-AssignTM Technology, the clamps automatically identify suction-line and liquid-line temperatures once paired, with intuitive blue/red LED indicators. High-precision NTC thermistor technology provides accuracy (±1 F with 0.1 F resolution), while firm-grip jaws accommodate pipe diameters up to 1-1/2 inches. A premium rubber overmold ensures secure handling in real-world jobsite conditions.
BlackMax BVG215 Wireless Vacuum Gauge
Extends the BlackMax system into high-resolution evacuation measurement and verification. The gauge streams live micron data directly to the BMD200 Digital Manifold or a mobile device, allowing technicians to monitor progress without hovering over the pump. Calibrated to NIST standards, the BVG215 delivers reliable accuracy across a wide operating range and features an integrated ball valve that lets technicians isolate the gauge without breaking vacuum. The result is a smoother evacuation process, clearer verification and fewer workflow interruptions from start to finish.
