Description
The Kele 6302-0171-KE is a professional-grade refrigerant gas detector engineered for the detection of R454B — a low-GWP A2L flammable refrigerant increasingly used in modern HVAC systems. Designed for commercial and industrial building automation environments, this sensor delivers reliable, continuous leak monitoring to help protect occupants, equipment, and facilities from hazardous refrigerant accumulation.
Key Features
- Specifically calibrated for R454B refrigerant detection — ideal for next-generation A2L refrigerant systems
- IP66-rated enclosure provides robust protection against dust ingress and powerful water jets, making it suitable for demanding mechanical room and rooftop installations
- Modbus communication protocol enables seamless integration with building automation systems (BAS) and energy management systems (EMS)
- Continuous monitoring provides early-warning leak detection to support safety compliance and minimize refrigerant loss
- Designed for straightforward installation and commissioning in commercial HVAC applications
Application
This gas detector is well-suited for mechanical rooms, equipment rooms, rooftop units, and any space where R454B refrigerant systems are installed. Its Modbus output allows facility managers and building automation technicians to monitor gas levels remotely, trigger alarms, and integrate detection data into centralized control platforms.
Why R454B Detection Matters
R454B (Opteon™ XL41) is classified as an A2L mildly flammable refrigerant and is widely adopted as a lower-GWP alternative to R410A. Proper leak detection is critical for code compliance and occupant safety wherever A2L refrigerants are in use. The Kele 6302-0171-KE provides the dedicated sensing capability required for these modern refrigerant applications.
