Technical data: HBSC2
The HBSC2 is a Level Switch designed for detecting liquid CO2 in refrigeration systems. It can also be used to detect butane, isobutane, and propane. The sensor is typically installed in or on the receiver but can be placed in other locations where level indication is required. Its unique measurement principle and robust construction allow it to endure high pressure and low refrigerant temperatures, making it suitable for transcritical CO2 refrigeration systems.
Technical data: HBLC-CO2
The HBLC-CO2 sensor is specifically designed for measuring CO2, Butane, or Propane refrigerant levels in chillers, evaporators, and condensers. The sensor provides an analog 4-20 mA output signal for straightforward integration with monitoring systems.
Technical data: HBSR
The HBSR is a Level Switch designed for detecting ammonia and brine refrigerants, ideal for industrial applications where high pressure and low temperatures are common. It is typically installed in refrigerant vessels, pump separators, or heat exchangers.
Technical data: HBOC/C
The HBOC/C sensor is designed to detect oil levels in gas, similar to the HBSO but with enhanced functionality. It features a built-in controller that maintains desired oil levels by controlling valves for filling or emptying a vessel.
With this specially developed software, you can set up and calibrate sensors from HB Products. The HB Tool can be installed on a PC running MS Windows and requires an x86 processor architecture (ARM-based processors are not supported). Both sensors with an M12 - 5 pin connector and a DIN 43650/ISO 4400 - 4 pin can be connected using a USB cable.
The HB Tool can detect the connected sensor and shows all the parameters you can set for the sensor. The data can be stored on the sensor like you store data on a USB stick. The HB Tool can also be used for calibration and for troubleshooting in the system.
The sensors from HB Products typically deliver an analog 4-20 mA signal as measurement result. The signal can be wired over a long distance without compromising the accuracy. The signal is typically used as input in a PLC for controlling the system. Some sensors have a digital output to be used in a relay, or they have an output cable which can control a valve directly. Some of the sensors has a LED output for showing power supply, an alarm or other simple output.

Installation of our sensors requires technical knowledge of both refrigeration and electronics. Only qualified personnel should work with the product. The technician must be aware of the consequences of an improperly installed sensor, and must be committed to adhering to the applicable local legislation.

If you double click on a HB Tool application, and the tool does not start, your .jar association has been hijacked. You can fix the problem with Jarfix.
The problem ...
The root cause for the problem above is, that a program has stolen the .jar association. If you have installed the Java Runtime Environment the first time, the file type called "jar" is assigned to javaw.exe correctly. "jar" is an abbreviation for "java archive" and javaw.exe is the correct program to execute a .jar. However, on Windows any program can steal a file type at any time even if it is already associated with a program. Many zip/unzip programs prefer to do this, because a jar is stored in the .zip format. If you doubleclick on a .jar, your pack program opens the file, rather than javaw runs the program, because your pack program ignores the meta information which are also stored in a .jar. In the Oracle bug database there is the low-priority report 4912211 "add mechanism to restore hijacked .jar and .jnlp file extensions", but it has been closed as "Closed, Will Not Fix".
The workaround ...
Re-install the Java Runtime Environment or fix the Windows Registry manually each time this problem occurs.
The solution ...
You can fix this problem very easy with the small but reliable jarfix.exe program. The program can be downloaded on this site:
