Accurate Refrigerant Analysis Using Gas Chromatography

Refrigerants are low-boiling single components or mixtures used in refrigeration and heat pump systems. Traditionally, many refrigerants contained fluorinated and chlorinated compounds, which are now increasingly regulated or phased out due to their environmental impact. Accurate identification and quantification of refrigerants is therefore essential for product quality control, recycling, and regulatory compliance.

The GAS Refrigerants Analyser provides custom-configured GC solutions for the analysis of refrigerants and coolants in both laboratory and industrial environments. Based on proven GC technology, the analyser supports multiple sampling modes for liquid and gaseous samples. Depending on matrix complexity and unknown sample composition, one to four analysis channels can be configured using capillary columns with FID and/or TCD detection, ensuring reliable separation and identification across a wide range of refrigerant components.

Applications

  • Refrigerant Identification and Composition Analysis
    Analyse single-component and blended refrigerants, including hydrocarbons and fluoro/chloro-hydrocarbons.
  • Refrigerant Recycling and Reuse
    Identify unknown or mixed refrigerants prior to recycling or recharging.
  • Quality Control of Refrigerants
    Verify refrigerant composition and purity before distribution or use.
  • Leakage and Contamination Assessment
    Detect air, moisture-related impurities and cross-contamination in refrigerant systems.
  • Laboratory and Industrial Testing
    Support routine analysis in laboratories, service centres and industrial facilities.

Benefits

  • Flexible Sampling Modes
    Analyse refrigerants as gas or liquid using GSV, vaporiser or LSV with optional Sample Securitiser.
  • Wide Concentration Range
    Reliable analysis from approximately 100 ppm up to high percentage levels.
  • Multiple Detector Options
    FID and/or TCD detection, including non-condensable gases such as air.
  • Expandable Multi-Channel Design
    One to four GC channels for complex mixtures and unknown refrigerants.
  • Robust, Proven GC Technology
    Based on Thermo Trace GC1600 or CompactGC4.0 platforms with high uptime and low maintenance.
