Refrigerant Gas Detector for Marine Applications

Ensure the integrity of your vessel's refrigeration and air conditioning systems with this professional-grade handheld refrigerant gas detector. Engineered for the marine environment, this compact instrument quickly locates leaks of common refrigerants including CFCs, HCFCs, and HFCs — helping you prevent costly gas losses and maintain optimal system performance. Whether you are a marine engineer, HVAC technician, or ship chandler, this leak detector is an essential tool for routine maintenance and emergency diagnostics.

Built with a sensitive heated-diode sensor, the detector delivers rapid response to refrigerant concentrations as low as 0.5 oz/year, minimizing search time. An adjustable sensitivity level and extended flexible probe allow you to reach confined spaces, while the audible alarm and visual LED indicators clearly signal the presence of a leak. The rugged housing is designed to withstand the rigors of onboard use, with a lightweight, ergonomic grip for comfortable handling during extended inspections.

This detector is ideal for use in engine rooms, cold rooms, reefer containers, and air conditioning systems. It comes complete with a rigid probe, carrying case, and batteries, making it ready for immediate use. Add this reliable refrigerant gas detector to your ship's toolkit to ensure efficient operation and compliance with environmental regulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of refrigerant gases does this detector detect?

It detects CFCs such as R-12, HCFCs like R-22, and HFCs including R-134a, R-404A, and R-410A, as well as most common blends.

How long does the sensor take to warm up?

The sensor typically reaches operating temperature in under 30 seconds, allowing for quick deployment.

Can I use this detector in cold environments like reefer containers?

Yes, the detector operates in temperatures from 0°C to 50°C, making it suitable for most marine environments including cold storage areas.

How often should the detector be calibrated or maintained?

For best accuracy, it is recommended to perform a basic check before each use and have the sensor professionally calibrated every 6-12 months, depending on usage frequency.
