Help Strengthen Worker Safety Practices and Improve Refrigerant Leak Visibility in Cold Rooms and Walk‑In Freezers
Support safety protocols, compliance efforts, and refrigeration system performance with leak detection solutions designed for enclosed cold‑storage environments.
Cold‑Storage Safety & Refrigerant Management
Cold rooms and walk in freezers present unique safety considerations due to enclosed spaces, low temperatures, and the potential for refrigerant accumulation. In these environments, refrigerant leaks may contribute to oxygen deficient conditions, operational disruptions, or regulatory challenges.
MSA provides leak detection solutions for HFC/HFO, CO₂, and NH₃ systems, supporting facility efforts to align with ASHRAE 15, EN378, and other applicable refrigerant management requirements.
Leak Detection in Cold Storage Environments
Cold storage environments vary widely, from small walk ins to large industrial freezer rooms. Because refrigeration system design, charge size, and control strategies differ, facilities may require different sensing approaches.
MSA helps facilities evaluate leak detection options based on:
Refrigerant type
Room size and occupancy
Ventilation and airflow
Applicable regulatory requirements
Integration needs (BMS, controllers, alarms)
