Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3859252A1] Provided is a heat exchange unit that uses a flammable refrigerant and is capable of highly reliable refrigerant leakage detection. A heat exchange unit exchanges heat between a liquid medium sent to utilization-side equipment and a flammable refrigerant, to perform at least one of cooling and heating of the liquid medium. The heat exchange unit includes a heat exchanger, a casing, a drain pan (80) arranged below the heat exchanger in a lower part of the casing, and a gas detection sensor (70). The heat exchanger exchanges heat between the refrigerant and the liquid medium. The casing accommodates the heat exchanger. The drain pan has a bottom plate (82) and a side wall (84) extending upward from the bottom plate. The first gas detection sensor detects the presence or absence of refrigerant gas in an internal space (Si) of the drain pan, the internal space being located above the bottom plate of the drain pan and below an upper end part of the side wall of the drain pan.
