1. A sensor system for a refrigerant unit comprising:

  • a plurality of hoseless sensors for sensing system parameters of the refrigerant unit; and

    a portable electronic device configured to receive the system parameters from the hoseless sensors and to calculate system conditions for the refrigerant based on the system parameters;

    wherein;

    the plurality of hoseless sensors comprises a hoseless first pressure sensor and a hoseless second pressure sensor, and a hoseless first temperature sensor and a hoseless second temperature sensor;

    the first and second temperature sensors each comprises a temperature sensor clamp having a clamping portion configured to clamp on a tube of the refrigerant unit, the clamping portion including a sensor element to measure temperature about the tube; and

    each temperature sensor clamp further comprises a handle and integrated electronics, and the integrated electronics are incorporated into the handle and in electrical connection with the sensor element.
