Early Leak Detection

Reduce refrigerant leak rates by detecting and locating refrigerant leaks early. EPA and CARB compliant. No new sensors required.

 
 
 
 

 
Without Axiom’s support, we would have lost hundreds of pounds of refrigerant and experienced a critical cooling outage within 24 hours. And, it happened twice in a week!

Predictive Refrigerant Loss Detection

  • Complies with EPA requirements for indirect Automatic Leak Detection (ALD) systems. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) lists Axiom Cloud as an ALD system.

  • Eliminates the requirement for quarterly manual leak checks

  • No new hardware required

  • Does not require receiver-level sensors or PPM refrigerant "sniffers"

  • Uses AI to identify system-level changes in performance trends that are leading indicators for a leak (primarily, 8+ indicators including superheat values, valve positions, component runtimes, enthalpy values, etc.)

  • Addresses the primary driver of scope 1 emissions: high refrigerant leak rates

  • Helps identify the locations of leaks to make onsite technicians more efficient

 
 

 

Software is refrigeration’s new best friend

Axiom uses AI to identify system-level changes in performance trends that are leading indicators for a leak (primarily, 8 families of indicators including superheat values, valve positions, component runtimes, enthalpy values, etc.). Axiom does not require receiver-level sensors or PPM refrigerant "sniffers" to work, but these sensor values can be used in the model if the sensors are already installed, functioning properly, and calibrated.

 
 
 

Axiom helps identify and solve leaks prior to business losses

In this graph, leaks are typically found at point 7 when temperature alarms are triggered. This can lead to spoilage, downtime, and loss of sales. Axiom enables companies to catch leaks at stage 2 or 3, saving not only refrigerant costs, but potential outages.

Axiom can detect leaks anywhere in the refrigeration system, regardless of location. It can also help to isolate the location of leaks to specific cases, case groups, or racks (depending on the specific leak location).
