July 18, 2019 - Bacharach , a provider of HVAC-R gas instrumentation and monitoring solutions, introduced the MVR-SC controller designed to pair with MVR-300 refrigerant monitors to provide real-time status of refrigerant leaks throughout a facility. The key functions of the MVR-SC include:
- Centralized alarming for MVR-300 VRF leak detectors
- Network set-up and MVR-300 Modbus ID assignment
- System monitoring
The MVR-SC eliminates the need to integrate VRF leak detection into a BAS controller. By implementing a hybrid Ethernet serial network the MVR-SC simplifies the Modbus integration, provides response for fault detection and troubleshooting and is deployed in any size facility.
The MVR-SC monitors up to 100 MVR-300 devices and has an integrated audible alarm. The MVR-SC has auser interface built on a color, touchscreen display.
VRF systems are being increasingly deployed in multi-tenant building such as hotel, dormitories, assisted living facilities, and offices. The Bacharach VRF leak detection system, which includes the MVR-300 and MVR-SC, improves occupant safety in the case of a VRF system leak.
