SMODREFR

The continuous monitoring of the cooling process is vital in the food industry whereby refrigerating plants and cold warehouses always have to function reliably, so the availability of the plants remain in top condition. This is also the case during the manufacturing of food stuff as well as during the transportation and storage of perishable goods.

Air-Met Scientific have a range of reliable NDIR refrigerant gas sensors specifically for use in refrigerant detectors to ensure that you detect any gas leaks early on and avoid expensive losses. 

The sensors have the ability to measure the following gases:
