Product Technical Overview
MSA Chillgard® RT Refrigerant Monitor
The MSA Chillgard RT Refrigerant Monitor is an industrial refrigerant gas monitoring instrument designed for continuous leak detection in refrigeration systems, HVAC facilities, and mechanical equipment rooms. Manufactured by MSA, this monitor uses Photoacoustic Infrared (PIR) technology to identify compatible refrigerant gases at low concentrations.
With a minimum detection capability of 1 ppm, the Chillgard RT is designed for applications where sensitive refrigerant monitoring is required. Its configurable monitoring system can support up to eight remote sampling locations, allowing suitable facilities to monitor different areas through a centralized instrument.
Key Features
- Photoacoustic Infrared Technology: Uses highly selective PIR technology for refrigerant gas detection.
- 1 ppm Detection Capability: Designed to detect refrigerant concentrations as low as 1 ppm.
- Multi-Point Monitoring: Supports monitoring of up to eight remote sampling locations with the appropriate configuration.
- Multiple Refrigerant Options: Can be configured for specific refrigerants or groups of compatible refrigerant gases.
- Three Alarm Levels: Provides configurable caution, warning, and alarm functions.
- Visual Display: Features an easy-view vacuum fluorescent display.
- Audible Alarm: Includes an audio alarm for notification of detected conditions.
- Multiple Outputs: Supports 4–20 mA and 0–10 V analog outputs.
- Building Management Integration: Offers BACnet compatibility.

Installation and Safe Operation
Install and operate the MSA Chillgard RT according to the manufacturer's instruction manual. Before installation, confirm the refrigerant type, sampling-point arrangement, tubing requirements, power supply, alarm configuration, and output compatibility. Regular inspection, calibration, and maintenance should follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
The monitor should form part of an appropriate facility safety system and should not replace required ventilation, leak prevention, or emergency response procedures.
