Any refrigeration system based on NH3 poses a risk of leakage. Since Ammonia is a combustible and toxic gas, all Ammonia systems must be designed with safety in mind, that includes gas detectors installation. Fast and accurate detection of leaks in this application can be hampered by unfavorable climatic conditions, such as temperature fluctuations or high humidity.

Evikon MCI's gas detectors solve this problem with a built-in heating element that prevents condensation and allows the instruments to operate properly at low temperatures down to -40℃.
