CGAS-IR Detector

Early detection of a refrigerant leak helps prevent dangerous health consequences to occupants, reduces significant loss of expensive refrigerant, and decreases energy costs.

If a leak does occur, a fixed gas detection system permanently installed near the chiller equipment in an area where a refrigerant leak is most likely to concentrate will ensure people will be alerted and kept safe.

The CGAS IR Refrigerant Gas Detector from Critical Environment Technologies provides accurate, low level leak detection of refrigerant gases commonly used in commercial refrigeration systems. The long life, NDIR refrigerant sensor with dual beam technology ensures stability, anti-interference, and high accuracy.

Protect people, decrease energy, and reduce loss of refrigerant.
