Definitions
- the present invention relates to the detection of leaks in refrigeration systems, and to an improved leak detection composition and to a refrigerant composition incorporating same.
- the invention also relates to a method of formulating such compositions.
- the invention is generally applicable to the detection of leaks from a hermetic refrigerant system, such as refrigeration, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems, wherein a fluorescent dye or other visible indicator composition is combined with a suitable refrigerant system lubricant and a material suitable to function as a heat transfer agent or refrigerant in a hermetic system.
- a hermetic refrigerant system such as refrigeration, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems
- a fluorescent dye or other visible indicator composition is combined with a suitable refrigerant system lubricant and a material suitable to function as a heat transfer agent or refrigerant in a hermetic system.
- the invention is especially directed towards locating refrigerant leaks from refrigerant systems using refrigerant substances other than chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) that have been banned under the Montreal Protocol.
- CFC chlorofluorocarbons
- Refrigerants that are devoid of the chlorine atom and therefore considered environmentally friendly to the earth's ozone layer have been developed and continue to be developed to replace CFC and HCFC materials that are the circulating heat transfer media in many hermetic systems.
- Many chemical companies have developed products that alone or in combination are suitable to function as heat transfer agents or refrigerants in a hermetic system such as, but not limited to, hydro-chloro-fluorocarbons (HCFC), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and hydrogen, halogenated or ether derivatives of methane; hydrogen, halogenated, ether or cyclic derivatives of any of ethane, propane, butane, pentane; mixtures of HCFC, HFC, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and ammonia.
- HCFC hydro-chloro-fluorocarbons
- HFC hydrofluorocarbons
- hydrogen, halogenated or ether derivatives of methane hydrogen, halogenated, ether or cyclic
- HCFC, HFC and hydrocarbon refrigerants are considered less damaging to the environment and have ozone depletion potentials which range from zero to a fraction of one, while the ozone depletion potential of a CFC refrigerant, such as CFC-12, is one.
- Hydrocarbons such as synthetic hydrocarbons (SHC), alkylbenzene (AB), and polyalphaolefins (PAO) may only be partially soluble in polyalklene glycol and in polyolester lubricants such as those used in the new HFC refrigerant-containing systems.
- SHC synthetic hydrocarbons
- AB alkylbenzene
- PAO polyalphaolefins
- Leaks in refrigeration systems have up until the present invention been located by various methods, including the injection of a suitable dye material into the system and the detection of the residues of dye left on the surface of the system.
- a suitable dye material for example, vehicle air-conditioning systems are prone to developing minor refrigerant leaks from small fatigue cracks and loose pipe connections brought about by the vibration that the systems are subjected to in use. The detection and location of the leaks is rendered difficult because the refrigerants in question are normally odourless and colourless.
- Some new HFC systems reach higher operating temperatures and pressures than the old CFC systems because of different thermodynamic properties. Such higher temperatures and pressures can adversely affect the thermal stability of the dyes in the new HFC- containing systems.
- the dyes have tended to separate out, or to precipitate out of solution.
- the present invention is based on the discovery that small but effective quantities of known fluorescent dyes or other diagnostic compositions may remain permanently in suspension or solution in the liquid refrigerant when stored in pressurised storage vessels (e.g. cylinders) long term.
- the pre-mixture of the dye or other diagnostic composition in solution, with or without the refrigerant and the refrigeration lubricant allows for simplified introduction of the dye or other diagnostic composition into the hermetic refrigeration system.
- a leak detection composition for a refrigeration system comprising a fluorescent dye or other visible diagnostic composition dissolved in or in suspension or emulsion in a solvent for said dye or diagnostic composition together with a refrigeration system lubricant.
- a refrigerant composition comprising essentially an admixture of a liquid refrigerant with a fluorescent dye or other visible diagnostic composition dissolved in or in suspension or emulsion in a solvent for the dye or diagnostic composition, and a refrigeration system lubricant.
- This mixture when pressurised, provides a refrigerant gas composition including a permanent dye component or other visible indicator.
- a method of detecting leaks in a refrigeration system that uses in combination a refrigerant, a refrigerant system lubricant and a fluorescent dye or other visible diagnostic composition permanently entrained therein, the method comprising the steps of:
- the hermetic refrigeration system with a predetermined amount of the refrigerant composition from the preceding step operating the charged system as and when required and determining the presence of a leak site by the presence of a coloured fluorescence or other visible coloration detectable by visual observation or with the aid of a lamp that produces light having an emission wavelength from 300 to 480 nanometers, directed at said refrigeration system.
- the present invention is directed to the detection of leaks in refrigeration systems employing the new alternative HFC environmentally friendly refrigerants where said refrigeration system is suitable for cooling, freezing, heating, ventilating and air conditioning and where said refrigeration system employs alone or in combination, any material, suitable to function as a heat transfer agent or refrigerant in a hermetic system such as, but not limited to, chlorofluorocarbons (CFC), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFC), hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) and any hydrogen, halogenated or ether derivatives of methane, hydrogen, halogenated, ether or cyclic derivatives either ethane, propane, butane, pentane, mixtures of HCFC, HFC, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and ammonia.
- CFC chlorofluorocarbons
- HCFC hydrochlorofluorocarbons
- HFC hydrofluorocarbons
- refrigerants include but are not limited to CFC-11, CFC-12, HCFC-22, HCFC-123, HCFC-124, HCFC-142b, HFC-32, HFC-134, HFC-134a, HFC- 152, HFC- 152a, HFC-143a, HFC-125, HFC-245ca, HFC-245fa and HFC-225ca.
- refrigeration systems can use alone or in combination, refrigeration system lubricants including, but not limited to, hydrocarbons such as natural or refined mineral oils, synthetic hydrocarbons (SHC), alkylbenzenes (AB), polyalphaolefins (PAO) and synthetic poly alkylene glycols that are terminated as mono- or diethers or as esters, and the general class of polyolester lubricants that are either di-, tri-, tetra- or polyfunctional pentaerythritol esters.
- hydrocarbons such as natural or refined mineral oils
- synthetic hydrocarbons (SHC) synthetic hydrocarbons (SHC), alkylbenzenes (AB), polyalphaolefins (PAO) and synthetic poly alkylene glycols that are terminated as mono- or diethers or as esters
- PAO polyalphaolefins
- synthetic poly alkylene glycols that are terminated as mono- or diethers or as esters
- PEO polyalphaolefin
- the mixture of refrigerants and refrigeration system lubricants can be composed of the aforementioned materials having at least 0.001 grams of general naphthalimide dye (including structures that incorporate any nitrogen alkyl derivatives and any functionalized ring chemistry, both carbocyclic and heterocyclic, with either nitrogen, sulfur, carbon or oxygen) dissolved per 100 grams of refrigeration working fluid.
- general naphthalimide dye including structures that incorporate any nitrogen alkyl derivatives and any functionalized ring chemistry, both carbocyclic and heterocyclic, with either nitrogen, sulfur, carbon or oxygen
- the choice of dye for inclusion in the refrigerant gas composition is from any suitable known dye which can be dissolved in a solvent and is compatible with the combination of refrigerant and refrigeration system lubricant, and is not precipitated from solution.
- the preferred dyes are naphthalimide and perylene fluorescent dyes, but are not limited thereto.
- the dye is incorporated into the solvent generally in the range of about 1 to 5% by weight of the solution, and then entrained into the refrigerant composition in the range of about 0.001 to about 0.1% by weight based on the weight of the dye substance per 100 grams of refrigerant working solution.
- the refrigerant composition including the dye entrained therein is circulated throughout the entire hermetic refrigeration system, and in time the system will be inspected for leaks with a light excitation source having emission wavelengths in the range from 300 to 480 nanometers.
- compositions disclosed herein are invisible or of a lesser intensity in ordinary light.
- a lamp having a light emission output in the range from 300 to 480 nanometers is directed at the lubricant and naphthalimide dye mixture, a striking fluorescence, for example with the colour yellow to yellow green, is immediately noticeable at the leak site.
- refrigerant is supplied by refrigerant wholesalers to service persons and refrigeration equipment manufacturers in pressure vessels able to withstand the vapour pressure of the refrigerant at normal ambient temperatures.
- Those pressure vessels are commonly referred to simply as "gas cylinders", notwithstanding that a normally full said gas cylinder is very nearly full of liquid refrigerant in equilibrium with only a relatively small ullage volume of refrigerant vapour.
- Each said gas cylinder is fitted with a manually operable outlet valve including a standardised hose connector, whereby the cylinder may be connected to standardised manually operable inlet valves, also furnished with standardised hose connectors, for the admission of refrigerant into both the liquid filled high pressure and vapour filled low pressure parts of a refrigeration or air- conditioning system.
- the present invention contemplates that a wholesaler or manufacturer may incorporate an effective amount of dye stuff into the refrigerant while filling the said gas cylinders for delivery to the system manufacturer or service provider, to enable the latter persons to charge the system with refrigerant in a normal manner, to thereafter render it unnecessary for a service provider to add the dye composition separately when placing gas in a system or adopt special procedures to detect leaks.
- the invention further consists in a method of filling a gas cylinder with an admixture of liquid refrigerant and an effective amount of a diagnostic dye, comprising the step of continuously injecting a minor flow of a dye into a filler pipe through which a major flow of liquid refrigerant is being fed into a cylinder being filled.
- a diagnostic dye may be metered into the filler pipe by any form of positive displacement pump or similiar system running at an appropriate speed to deliver the dye against the pumping and vapour pressure of the refrigerant at the temperature in the pipe.
- the above described method of the invention is applicable to the filling of present day gas cylinders.
- the dye may be injected directly into the liquid pool in the cylinder simultaneously with the input of refrigerant through the conventional valve.
- the pigments in dyes that are currently used as diagnostic agents are essentially solids made available as powders. Before they can be readily pumped they require to be dissolved in an appropriate liquid solvent. Indeed they are cu ⁇ ently marketed as solutions containing about 2% by weight of pigment in a liquid solvent. Therefore the term "dye” as used herein includes within its ambit liquid solutions of the pigment material.
- the dye is preferably delivered in a dye composition
- a dye composition comprising such liquid solutions of pigment, preferably a pigment that fluoresces under the influence of ultra-violet radiation, in admixture with one or more of the following - mineral oils - vegetable oils - surfactants - synthetic oils - esters - or other suitable solvents therefor.
- a preferred composition for inclusion in the liquid refrigerant may comprise dye solution containing about 2% by weight of pigment dissolved in an admixture of a combination of the chemicals described above. Those chemicals have been found to reduce or stop the forming of the precipitate previously mentioned.
- a napthalimide dye was solubilized into a refrigerant composition by first dissolving the dye in a solvent mixture comprising:
- Fatty Acid Ethoxylate is an Ethylene Oxide Ester based on Oleic Acid. It has six mols of Ethylene Oxide per mol of Oleic Acid.
- Alcohol Ethoxylate is Cetyl Oleyl Alcohol Ethoxylate, which has two mols of Ethylene Oxide per mol of Cetyl Oleyl Ethoxylate.
- Polyolester Oil is a lubricant used in air conditioning systems. Particularly those using HFC refrigerants. This chemical could be replaced by any of the lubricants used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems.
- Napthalimide dyes are recognised for their suitability for fluorescing when exposed to light between 300 - 480 nm.
- R134a is the gas most commonly used in conjunction with this dye mixture.
- R134a is an HFC (hydrofluorcarbon) however suitability is not limited to that gas. It is also suitable for use with but not limited to, HCFC's (hydrochlorofluorocarbons) and hydrogen, halogenated, ether or cyclic derivatives of ethane, propane, butane, pentane, mixtures of HCFC, HFC, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and ammonia.
- the dyes able to be used are not limited to Naphalimide dye. It is also suitable for use with Perylene dye and other dyes used for their ability to fluoresce when exposed to light between 300 - 480 nm. The above exemplified dye in solvent solution is then mixed with the liquid refrigerant in a ratio of one part per one hundred.
- mixtures and chemicals can be used to achieve a similar outcome.
- these include but are not limited to mineral based oils and synthetic Hydrocarbon (SHC) oil, Polyalkylene glycols and other chemicals used for lubrication of air conditioning and refrigeration systems, fatty acids such as Oleic Acid and other "vegetable oils”, esters and surfactants including but not limited to fatty acid Ethoxylates and other Ethoxylates.
- SHC Synthetic Hydrocarbon
- the inventor has speculated that the chemical composition of the dye's solvents must be such that those chemicals used are not completely soluble in the refrigerant gas. If solvents such as (but not limited to) oils, intended for use with a certain refrigerant are used to carry the dye in solution it was found that when the dye and solvent are mixed with the liquid refrigerant, the solvent and refrigerant become bonded and the dye is released from the solvent and then will appear as a solid precipitate in the refrigerant gas.
- solvents such as (but not limited to) oils
