The Evikon E2630-HFC is a detector designed to monitor the concentration of R134a refrigerant in air. The device uses a semiconductor sensor that provides accurate real-time measurements. Thanks to its reliable performance and easy installation, it is an ideal choice for commercial and industrial applications where refrigerant leak monitoring is essential.

The device is housed in a wall-mounted enclosure with IP65 protection, ensuring resistance to dust and water. The E2630-HFC detector is equipped with a visual and audible alarm that provides timely warning when the R134a concentration rises. In addition, it offers two SPDT relay outputs for easy integration with ventilation control systems or alarms, ensuring a comprehensive safety solution.

Typical applications:

The E2630-HFC detector is intended for monitoring R134a refrigerant leaks in environments such as plant rooms, air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment, refrigerant storage areas, or other facilities where refrigerant concentrations need to be monitored. The device is used for early leak detection, helping to minimise the risks associated with refrigerant leakage and protecting both the environment and equipment.

R134a:

R134a is a synthetic refrigerant widely used in refrigeration and air-conditioning systems. It is a colourless gas with a faint odour and low toxicity. Although it is non-flammable, its leakage may impair air quality or contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. Monitoring R134a leaks is crucial for maintaining equipment safety and complying with environmental standards.

Calibration certificate

Every Evikon gas detector package includes a factory calibration certificate. The calibration certificate is in English. Gas concentration measurement is affected by operating temperature and humidity, therefore the detector is calibrated during production with enhanced safety in mind.
