June 26, 2018 – Bacharach, a provider of refrigerant management and refrigerant leak detection solutions announces the release of a refrigerant leak reduction cost savings calculator. The calculator will enable heavy users of commercial refrigerant such as supermarkets, cold storage facilities and food processing plants to evaluate the cost savings associated by reducing the amount of leaking refrigerant.
To assist in leak rate reduction, Bacharach offers non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor technology to enable early detection of low-level leaks, setting the industry standard at 1 ppm while providing a fast T-90 response time of only about 6 seconds, the time it takes to reach 90% of the maximum concentration reading. The Bacharach HGM-MZ, Multi-Zoned fixed refrigerant leak detector uses NDIR technology and is able to detect the presence of over 60 refrigerant gases. Using the same NDIR sensor technology, the Bacharach PGM-IR is a portable refrigerant leak detector that also enables the detection of low-level refrigerant leaks, able to isolate leaks after detection by the HGM-MZ.
