Danfoss has released a new gas detector line for industrial refrigeration applications. According to the company, the detectors are based on a digital platform that delivers multiple communication and integration options for improved operational reliability, calibration and maintenance efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and regulatory compliance. The portfolio ranges from basic to heavy-duty models, complemented by a range of accessories.
The gas detection units can detect a wide range of refrigerant gases including ammonia (R717), CO2 (R744), fluorinated refrigerants (HCFC and HFCs), and propane (R290). The units come with various sensor technologies to match specific refrigerant, application, and safety requirements of the refrigeration system including electrochemical (EC), semiconductor (SC), Pellistor (P), and infrared sensors.
