HBCP - compressor protection

HBCP is the first sensor in the world capable of measuring the condition of gas and liquid refrigerant in a refrigeration system.

HBCP is used for detecting gas quality at the intake found on refrigeration compressors. The sensors thereby ensure that liquid refrigerant does not enter the compressor, causing damage to the moving parts.

The sensor has a high sensitivity and even detects small liquid droplets before they become critical to the compressor. The sensor has a uniquely low reaction time, and thereby ensures that the compressor is not damaged. In the event of liquid hammer, an instantaneous alarm is sent to the compressor control, which must signal an emergency stop to the compressor. The sensor measures the total gas and liquid capacity, which is displayed in pF.

The sensor has built-in data logs. All alarms are saved, so the sensor also functions as a “black box”. The data log can be read by connecting a PC. Similarly, the sensor can be set up using a PC.

    

                
Product features Applications Specifications Ordering code
  • The sensor protects the compressor against damage in the event of liquid hammer from the system.
  • Setting up the sensor using a PC allows for adjustments to match the system and the compressor.
  • It has built-in data logs that work as the compressor’s “black box”.
  • Instantaneous reaction without delays.
