Intended use, conditions of use. The HBLC sensor and controller is made to measure and control refrigerant. If HBLC is to be used in a different way or with another purpose, and if the operation of the product in this function is determined to be problematic, prior approval must be obtained from HB...
When liquid covers the sensor, the measured calibration. capacity is changes. HB Products sensors are calibrated so that they differentiate between conductive and non-conductive liquids. In refrigeration systems, the oil and liquid CO and HFC are not regarded as conductive fluids, whereas refrigerants such as ammonia and brine are regarded as conductive.
Design and Function HBLC is designed for refrigerant level control in chillers, separators, coolers, and capacitors. If the sensor is installed in an overflow pipe, it is important that there is adequate air around the sensor, so that gas pockets do not form.
EFFICIENCY IN THE REFRIGERATION INDUSTRY The HBLC sensor also has a built-in controller. The parameters for controlling a modulating motor valve can easily be set up in a configuration tool (HB Tool). HBLC connected to a modulating valve – an alternative to low pressure float control.
CAUTION! In case of welding work on the unit, please make sure that proper earthing is carried out to avoid damaging the electronics. Note! HBLC uses the overflow pipe or the pipe segment as reference material. Therefore, use either conductive sealing material or make sure that the Teflon tape does not prevent a metallic connection.
(de)activated in the tool. Mounting Guide HBLC is installed on an overflow pipe or a pipe segment matching the sensor’s installation length. Conductive sealing material or Teflon tape is applied to the thread, although one must ensure that there is metallic contact between the sensor and the overflow pipe.

IN THE REFRIGERATION INDUSTRY Calibration: 0% or 100% calibration can be carried out independently of each other. HBLC level sensor is delivered pre- calibrated. For normal use, calibration is not necessary. If the signal changes over time, we recommend a 0% calibration with an empty overflow pipe or container.
The sensor electronics are completely embedded and can therefore not be repaired. In case of faults with the sensor, it will typically only be necessary to replace the electronics. Complaint cases are handled by the HB Products dealers/distributors. Their complain procedures must be followed before returning the sensor.
