Description

Time and complexity of installation are of the utmost importance for HVAC and refrigeration technicians. To help our customers overcome these daily challenges, CAREL has harnessed the ubiquitous smartphone, the most widely available working device that everyone has in their pocket. Download and install Applica, the app that connects your smartphone to the latest generation of CAREL controllers using built-in NFC and Bluetooth connectivity. Just as electronic controllers have replaced the rotating temperature dial of mechanical thermostats, Applica goes beyond the traditional 7-LED segment displays and streamlines work in the field.

By providing a single app to manage all CAREL controllers, we ensure a consistent user experience and a family feel. The app dynamically adapts to the connected device and optimizes its functions for specific HVAC/cooling applications. With Applica, you can speed up the commissioning of the device thanks to a configuration wizard that allows you to fully set up the controller by asking 5 simple questions. Check the system functionality before commissioning with the outputs test mode, which allows you to easily and safely check all connected loads.

After the initial configuration, you can export the configuration file and share it with colleagues or save it on your smartphone as a backup. Gain deeper insights into device performance through the controller's data logs and Applica's maintenance features, including historical data, alarm logs and variable trends. These features enable technicians to identify and resolve issues quickly and effectively.

CAREL also offers a free learning portal with tutorials on Applica and its use in conjunction with our most popular electronic controllers to fully support HVAC and refrigeration technicians.
