Refrigerant Analysis
The A-Gas laboratory has been constructed and equipped under strict guidelines of AHRI 700 testing requirements.
A-Gas provides refrigerant analysis services through our state-of-the-art on site laboratory.
Our analysis services enable end users to identify the refrigerant in a system and detect potential contaminant levels.
Our refrigerant analysis kit includes a sample cylinder, complete with full instructions and a submission form.
A minimum sample of 500g is required for an accurate analysis and the instruction form must be filled in and returned to A-Gas with the sample.
The analysis test results will indicate problems with oil residue, moisture, acidity, composition, purity, non-condensables and R40 (Methyl Chloride).
Oil Analysis
Oil analysis can provide early warning of potential problems by identifying concentrations of metals and other contaminants in the oil.
This can avoid unscheduled downtime and also prevent damage to equipment.
Our oil analysis kit contains a small bottle to take the oil sample and an instruction from which both need to be returned to A-Gas for analysis to take place.
CO2 Analysis
Refrigeration systems that contain Carbon Dioxide (CO2/R744) require strict controls on moisture, oil and other contaminants. Our CO2 analysis service enables end users to identify the purity and moisture levels of the product in the system. Our analysis cylinders have been designed specifically for liquid CO2 samples to be charged into the cylinder and our laboratory facilities have been set up to handle the analysis based on the specifications set by the industry standard. The correct sampling techniques and appropriate cylinders are essential for obtaining a meaningful analytical result (a standard refrigerant analysis cylinder is not suitable for this use). For further information on our CO2 analysis service please consult you local FSW.
