BURR RIDGE, Illinois USA –  May 11, 2006

Hansen Technologies introduces the Purging Log Kit for the AP model Auto-Purger (AP08, 16, 24, 01, and APC). The Purging Log Kit measures purger and refrigeration system performance, using a digital timer to record total time the non-condensible gas (air) is released to the atmosphere. It also provides a basis for calculating the amount of residual refrigerant gas released from the system; as a normal occurrence of the purging process.

The Purging Log Kit provides a more precise indicator of purger operation than the purge gas cycle counter. A single non-condensible gas purge cycle release varies in time duration. With the purge gas cycle counter, if there is a change in system or purger performance, it may not be easily noticed by keeping track of counter events alone. Additionally, the Purging Log Kit is mounted on the outside of the cabinet, allowing for quick and easy recording of the purger log.

The kit includes the Purging Log Meter mounted in a NEMA 1 enclosure, flexible conduit with fittings, 115V solenoid coil and a Beacon pilot light (amber). The conduit length is adequate for the enclosure to be mounted on the purger frame using existing bolt holes or elsewhere on the purger. The kit can be field-installed or factory fitted.

OPERATION

When enough non-condensible gas (air) has collected in the purger, the float ball switch will change the SPDT switch position. This energizes the purge gas and water solenoid valves. Because the Purge Log Meter is wired in parallel with the purge gas solenoid valve, the meter will record the length of time for all non-condensible gas (air) purge cycles. The time is accumulated for all purge cycles in 1/100th hour increments. The amber pilot light will be lit when the purge cycle is active and the purge gas solenoid is energized.

KEY FEATURES

  • Records length of time air is removed
  • Readout visible on outside of purger control cabinet
  • Non-resetting readout displays total accumulated release time for purger
  • Beacon Pilot Light and Molded Solenoid Coil included
  • Pre-wired assembly requires only three wires to field connect
  • Factory certified and tested.
