Michigan City, IN, July 24, 2017 – Dwyer Instruments, Inc. was recognized for excellence in product design in the 14^th annual Dealer Design Awards Program sponsored by The Air Conditioning Heating & Refrigeration News magazine (The ACHR News). An independent panel of contractors acted as judges in the contest that had 81 entries. The company’s Series AVUL Air Velocity Transmitter was the Gold Award Winner in the Testing and Monitoring product category. The ACHR News is the leading trade magazine in the heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and refrigeration industries.

News Publisher Mike Murphy stated:
These awards give us a unique opportunity to recognize the outstanding research and development efforts that go into many of the products serving the HVACR industry and the awards issue gives our readers an opportunity to read about innovative installation and service solutions.

Dwyer Instruments Group Product and Marketing Manager, Michael Chhutani stated:
The Dwyer team is grateful to ACHR News for recognizing the Series AVUL Air Velocity Transmitter for its innovative design. This is the fourth  year in a row that we have received a Dealer Design Award within this product category; keeping with our tradition of launching new products to meet the needs of our customers and the needs of the markets we serve.

The Series AVUL Air Velocity Transmitter was created due to both contractor demand and company innovation. HVAC contractors preferred the ease of installation of a thermal-based air velocity transmitter; but, were unable to use this type of technology on many projects due to high costs. Dwyer worked with HVAC contractors to determine the specific application requirements and developed a velocity sensor that improves manufacturability while maintaining a cost point that will allow thermal-based sensing technology to be integrated into more HVAC projects.
 

Winning entries in the Dealer Design Awards were featured in the July 24, 2017 issue of The ACHR News, which is distributed nationally to over 33,000 HVACR contractors, wholesalers, and other industry professionals. For more information and further coverage, please visit achrnews.com.
