A2L Refrigerants
A2L refrigerants represent the future of HVAC and refrigeration, offering dramatically lower global warming potential than traditional HFCs. However, their mild flammability classification creates new detection requirements. Equipment manufacturers and building codes are updating to address these refrigerants. CET is at the forefront of A2L detection technology, offering sensors specifically designed for the unique properties of these next-generation refrigerants.
Why Detection Matters
The AIM Act and EPA regulations are phasing down high-GWP refrigerants, driving rapid adoption of A2L alternatives. Unlike traditional refrigerants, A2Ls require detection for both flammability and oxygen displacement. UL 60335-2-40 mandates refrigerant detection in equipment rooms. Building codes are being updated to require A2L detection systems. Early adoption of proper detection ensures compliance as regulations evolve.
