Abstract

A detection assembly operable to detect a refrigerant leak event includes a sensor network and a controller. The sensor network is operable to generate sensor outputs including triggering-sensor (TS) outputs and triggering-sensor context (TSC) outputs. The controller is operable to perform a sensor-reading context analysis on the sensor outputs. The sensor-reading context analysis includes accessing a set of the sensor outputs that occurred within a context time window, along with determining that a pattern of the set of sensor outputs represents the refrigerant leak event.
