Refrigerant Leaks? This Monitor Will Find Them
The Bacharach HGM-MZ (Halogen Gas Monitor Single Zone) is designed for continuous single-point monitoring of CFC, HFC, HCFC, and halon refrigerant gases. The HGMSZ displays the type of gas being monitored, along
with displaying both the current gas level and the peak gas level detected on its front panel LCD. The instrument retains a log of previous readings that can be easily accessed for analysis.An internal audible alarm and front panel indicators are provided to signal alarm and fault conditions, and relay contacts can be used to trigger external alarm devices in the event of a system fault, or if a leak (small), spill (medium), or evacuation (large) level of gas is detected. The system includes a 4-20 mA current loop interface that can be connected to remote monitoring equipment. The HGM-MZ easily complies with ASHRAE 15 requirements with a low-cost investment. Sources report this monitor eliminates false alarms through the use of a non-dispersive IR source and sample draw system. And, that it’s capable of detecting 41 of the most commonly used refrigerants and halogen gases.bacharach-inc.com
