Bacharach
Bacharach’s Parasense refrigerant usage compliance software now provides F-Gas reporting to support European customers with their refrigerant leak workflows. The refrigerant usage and reporting software now supports unlimited users, sites and refrigeration assets at no cost. The cloud-based software eliminates the need for spreadsheets and is suitable for any facility manager, team or organisation looking to reduce refrigerant emissions and support regulatory tracking and compliance reporting. The software is an enterprise-scale system to track refrigerant usage, leak inspections, and leak events, as well as provide specific compliance reporting for UK and European F-Gas refrigerant leaks and follow-up actions.
Notable software features include a compliance calendar, regulation workflow which maps regulations into specific tasks to maintain compliance, compliance score, automatic leak rate calculator and data summary.
Parasense Refrigerant Usage Reporting software is designed for facility managers and compliance officers who support multi-site organisations as well as for mechanical and refrigeration contractors who can benefit from offering refrigerant management as part of their services.

Condair Condair is
launching a new condensing gas- fired humidifier – the Condair GS. Its condensing system transfers heat from exhaust flue gases into the incoming water supply. This minimises energy consumption by
reducing the need to heat the water tank. This feature also improves humidity control, as the water being

Carel has launched boss micro, the new format that completes the boss family and extends the offering for local monitoring systems. The new supervisor is the ideal solution for applications such as c-stores, petrol stations and quick service restaurants with a limited number of units yet that still require the same user experience and advanced system management functions. Boss micro has the same user interface as boss and boss mini. In close synergy with CAREL’s digitalisation strategy, the new local boss micro supervisor natively integrates various communication channels to centralised data collection platforms. Enabling analytics and preventive logics to optimise performance is thus immediate and adaptable to any system. Boss micro comes in four different hardware versions so as to offer a flexible solution that adapts to the needs of every system, integrating a WI-FI hotspot and a 4G modem for easy local and/or remote access without requiring any additional infrastructure. Just like the entire boss range, boss micro also implements the highest security standards to ensure that access to information is always controlled and secure. An intuitive and usable interface ensures simple and immediate
interaction with the system for all users, one of the characteristics of boss that has also been implemented in the micro version.

introduced to the water tank is pre-heated and therefore doesn’t reduce the internal temperature so greatly or the steam output. Similar to the technology employed in domestic gas boilers, the introduction of condensing technology in gas-fired humidifiers results in lower temperature flue gases and allows the use of PVC flues. This greatly simplifies and reduces the installation cost of the humidification system, as expensive insulated stainless steels flues are not necessary.
Due to the lower cost of gas as an energy source, gas-fired humidifiers offer substantial savings when compared to more traditional electric steam humidifiers. Replacing an electric system with a gas-fired alternative can return on the investment within one to two years with savings thereafter.
The Condair GS is available in outputs from 21 to 246kg/h from a single unit with the smaller 21 and 41kg/h models being very compact wall-mountable units. This makes them suitable replacements for electric steam humidifiers, as these are typically wall-mounted and of a similar output.
The latest touch screen technology is incorporated into the Condair GS’ control panel, offering intuitive control over operation and extensive reporting options. All operating parameters can be seen at a glance with on-screen features offering the user further information on system diagnostics and detailed trouble-shooting suggestions.
A USB connection allows performance data to be downloaded into Excel for advanced analysis as well as allowing software updates to be easily carried out. BMS connectivity is included as standard using Modbus, BACnet IP and BACnet MSTP (slave) with options for LonWorks and BTL certified BACnet.
