As the global community have just focused on sustainable cooling at COP28 in Dubai, the timing couldn't be better for the release of the 2023 ATMO Market Report on Natural Refrigerants. This pivotal report is a treasure trove of the latest data and trends in the refrigeration industry, covering crucial markets in Europe, the U.S., Canada, and Japan.
We have a range of sensors that are specially developed for the higher temperatures and pressures you see in heat pumps.
Cold storage facilities face hefty energy demands, often inflated due to outdated defrost management systems in evaporators.
Traditional timer-scheduled defrosting frequently triggers unnecessary defrost cycles, draining the energy budget and slicing profit margins. Besides, these excessive defrost cycles can undermine operational stability and equipment performance.
At HB Products, we've been harnessing the capacitive measurement principle: A robust technology developed in the 1940s, to engineer cutting-edge switches and level sensors for refrigeration systems ❄️
This principle forms the backbone of our sensor technology, which has evolved over 25+ years, initially focusing on Ammonia and now compatible with all refrigerants.
Pumped refrigeration systems are a popular and reliable choice in many industries.
In their quest for a reliable solution to manage oil and refrigerant in their ammonia chillers, Mayekawa Nordic turned to HB Products and our HBSR switch.
Inefficient defrosting leads to unnecessary energy consumption in cooling and heating systems.
We have implemented the UKCA Label to all our product range.
We have extended our product range in oil management and added the HBSO-SSR-1/ALL switch, a switch developed as a universal product for all applications.
We have been ISO-9001 certified since 2004 – Achieving the 2022 Quality Control Certificate marked 18 Years of Quality Assurance at HB Products.
Our Defrost HBDF Sensor voted Best innovation in Industrial Refrigeration 2022 by the France Trade Show SIFA | Salon du froid et ses applications
We have developed a new wire sensor with a higher accuracy and a wider measuring range. The new model is suitable in the range from 250 to 6000 mm.
The new wire sensor will be available from mid-January 2022.
The product program for ammonia gas alarms HBGS is now extended to five versions ranging from 0-100 ppm and up to 0-15 %.
The use of heat pumps has increased along with the green transition to environmentally friendly forms of energy. Many large air to water heat pumps are already installed where the energy in the air is used to evaporate a refrigerant either directly where the refrigerant is present in the evaporator or indirectly where a frost-proof one circulates brine.
The A2 will now be replaced by A3 to provide a better product and simplify our product program. The A3 provide a better accuracy especially at elevated temperatures and has been used for heat pumps for some years.
The HBGS gas alarm sensor is now available in three versions
Hot ammonia has different properties than cold ammonia and this affect switches installed in heat pumps
We can now present a new oil level switch for heat pump applications
A new technology makes it possible to build a cold store with both a low refrigerant charge and a small energy consumption.
Our new updated product catalog for 2020/2021 is now available for download on our website
From end of September 2020 all the switches with the circular electronic unit will have a built in heater.
HBMD is a new multi display that can show a level or a pH value locally.
In the latest version of the HB-tool mouseover texts have been added.
All level transmitters with integrated cable for direct control of Electronic Expansion Valves will now have analog 4-20 mA output to PLC or main controller unit.
For level and HBX Vapor Quality Sensors with cable for direct control of valves the maximum current output is now increased from 1A to 2A.
Level and HBX Vapor Quality Sensors with direct valve control can now supply both AC and DC up to 2A
HB-level switches are upgraded to IP66 for outdoor use with new electronic unit/housing and union thread / threaded connection. The product update will be ready for the market in the fall of 2020.
New CO2 Gas Alarm and a new upgraded ammonia version with faster response time and improved stability.
We have extended our product range and can now present ATEX and IECEx approved liquid level sensors for zone 0.
The HBX Vapor Quality Sensor has now become a mature product - easier to install and use for all common refrigerants.
Special heat pump versions of sensors which are exposed to elevated temperatures are now available.
From 1st of March 2020 we can proudly present a new improved HBPH-MK2-LT sensor specified for low temperature applications.
Based on the Defrost Sensor a new sensor for ice banks is now launched.
