Data Sheet
Gas detecting sensor
Type DGS
Refrigerant gas detection for safeguarding commercial buildings.
DGS sensors can be used in stand-alone or integrated systems, where continuous realtime, automatic monitoring with Danfoss ADAP-KOOL® Refrigeration Control & Monitoring System and/or Building Management Systems is applied.
DGS supports our customers in complying with environmental F-Gas Regulations and Health & Safety requirements on new or existing systems in:
• supermarkets
• process refrigeration plants
• refrigerated storage and warehousing
• special application areas/zones
Typical refrigerant gas applications include:
• halocarbons: HFCs, HCFCs, CFCs
• carbon dioxide (CO /R744)
• hydrocarbons (e.g. R290)
• other special application gases to customer request
Sensing technology varies to make the best detection for a given gas, in terms of performance and cost. DGS-IR is based on infrared sensor technology, DGS-SC is based on semi-conductor and DGS-PE is based on pellistor.
