This means the rest of the system can continue to operate normally, so that other rooms can continue to be fully occupied and used.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn addition, room occupants can be audibly and visibly alerted to the presence of leaking refrigerant, which combined with leak isolation is helpful to ensuring safety of those occupants,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The MVR-300 is easily installed in a standard 2-gang electrical back box so it sits flush to the wall. Its low profile, neutral design blends into typical room d\u00e9cor, making the instrument unobtrusive.<\/p>\n<p>A range of communications options allow for alarms to be centralised into a building management system or other control system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bacharach, a provider of gas and refrigerant leak detection, combustion and emissions analysis instrumentation, energy management, and data analytics, is offering the MVR-300 to provide continuous refrigerant detection within occupied spaces.
