Penthouses

Penthouse applications vary depending on several factors, including size of the penthouse, temperature of the refrigerated area, number of evaporator coils, etc. electrochemical sensors answer the need for monitoring ammonia at low ppm levels without false trips.

The AirScan™ iR infrared detector for refrigerants in low temperature enclosures monitors CFCs, HFCs and HCFCs without false trips, even around product off-gases.

Sensor placement in relationship to coil location is also critical to the successful operation of gas sensors in penthouses. Please contact Manning Systems to discuss all penthouse gas sensing applications.

Our broad selection of electrochemical and infrared diffusion-type sensors offers excellent choices for long-term trouble-free operation in the harsh environments of food processing and storage plants. Unlike sample draw systems, diffusion sensors monitor an entire facility continuously without concern for pump or filter maintenance, sample dilution or moisture in sample draw lines. Degradation inherent to sample draw systems is not a concern with the solid reliability of diffusion devices. This is especially apparent in facilities with continuous high moisture levels.

Manning Systems enclosures with optional ATMOS equipped^® technology (Adaptive Temperature and Moisture Optimizing System) feature the first enviro-adaptive technology available for gas sensors. Manning Systems electrochemical and infrared gas sensors with ATMOS equipped^® technology can automatically adapt to environments from -50°F to 100% humidity and washdown conditions, assuring industry leading performance in the harshest environments.
