New range of gas detectors Supports cooling and refrigeration applications with halogen refrigerants

Bacharach have announced the introduction of 22 halogen refrigerants for its MGS-400 gas detectors for commercial and industrial gas leak monitoring applications. 

The recently added halogen refrigerants are: R1234yf, R1234ze, R134a, R22, R32, R404a, R407a, R407C, R407f, R410a, R422, R422D, R427A, R434A, R448A, R449A, R450A, R452A, R454A, R454C, R507a, R513A. Support for additional gases are currently being developed and will be available in the very near future.

The MGS-400 series products use three sensor types, depending on the measurement range, temperature and gas types when detecting for hazardous refrigerant leaks. The variety of sensor types within the product line provide important user benefits which include flexibility with refrigerant leak detection,  giving peace of mind when protecting personnel and achieving compliance with international safety standards like EN 378 inside of machinery rooms, mechanical equipment rooms, chiller plants, cold storage facilities and walk-in freezers.

Other useful features include a mobile app interface for easy commissioning and maintenance with no need for special tools and an added sensor life of 5 – 7 years with plug and play pre-calibrated sensor modules for quick and simple sensor replacement. Generating calibration certificates, from the mobile app, makes calibration documentation easy to generate and forward by email or store in the cloud. A Modbus RTU interface and analogue and relay outputs enable easy safety alarming and automation control.
