In the year of the 40th anniversary of innovation and partnership with those who drive refrigeration, Full Gauge Controls participates for the 17th time as an exhibitor at Febrava, showcasing technological advancements that consolidate its position as a global reference in the development of digital instruments for HVAC-R systems and equipment. There are over 180 models in the product line, developed to warrant precision, efficiency, and reliability in any applications.

This version has a higher symbolism too: the company is celebrating two decades of implementing the** 10-year warranty** in all products sold in Brazil – a never-before-seen commitment among the electronic controller manufacturers – a warranty that, from now on, is applicable worldwide. A milestone that reassures: the technology is Brazilian; the trust is global.

Another major milestone in the 224 m2 at the F32 stand is the achievement of Invention Patent registrations for the compact drivers of electronic expansion valves, models VX-1025E, VX1050E, and VX1005E, granted by the USPTO (United States) and INPI (Brazil). This is an acknowledgement that validates the originality and excellence of the company’s work, and it also reinforces the capacity to develop solutions that elevate the global standards of the industry.

In tune with the growing demands of the market, Full Gauge Controls reinforces its development of cutting-edge technology, introducing new features in already consolidated strategic products, while also preparing the launch of groundbreaking solutions. Among those, we can highlight the A2L leak detection sensors, a dedicated line for chiller control, and controllers with special valves and transducers for CO2 transcritical, keeping up with the increasing global use of environmentally sustainable refrigerants.

See here a summary of other highlights that Full Gauge Controls will present at Febrava 2025:

A pioneer in teaching technical knowledge during Febrava, Full Gauge Controls was one of the first companies to create and maintain a training room in the fair, a milestone that became a reference and inspiration for other exhibitors.

A complete success in past editions, this traditional space is already confirmed for 2025, with seminars every two hours, led by the company’s specialist team. The expectation is to train over 150 technicians during the event, strengthening the commitment of the brand to share a high-level content and contribute to the continuous improvement of the industry’s professionals.

Full Gauge Controls has prepared a 14 m2 special area to celebrate its history, and it invites the visitors to travel through time. The ambience throws back to the first headquarters of the company – a small garage in the Niterói neighborhood, in Canoas/RS; that was the starting point of a journey that has taken the brand from being the dream of two friends, to the global player level in the HVAC-R industry.

At the location you’ll see historical pictures and a collection of old products that tell, piece by piece, the chapters of this evolution, leading up to the current structure: a 9,450 m2 headquarters distributed in four buildings (Administrative, Warehouse, Manufacturing, and Injection Plant) located in the same region, while also adding a branch in the United States.

More than an exhibition space, it is a tribute to the persistence, to the innovative spirit, and the relationship build along these 40 years with professionals, clients, and partners from all over the world.

Reinforcing its commitment to technical development and to valuing all links in the HVAC-R chain, Full Gauge Controls keeps a solid partnership with Abrava, and is an official sponsor of the main content events that are carried out in parallel during Febrava: Conbrava and the XXV National Meeting of Designers and Consultants, in addition to being a co-sponsor of the VI National Meeting of Women in HVAC-R.

The presence in these forums strengthens the relevance of the company as a technological reference, and its active role in the promotion of strategic debates, sharing experiences, and encouraging innovation in the industry. Check out the seminars schedule with Full Gauge Participation:

**ENPC – National Meeting of Designers and Consultants (ENPC in Portuguese) ** "Efficiency and reliability in HVAC: the role of climate files and automation" September 9th (Tuesday) – 11:25 AM

Conbrava "CO₂ (R-744): A path with no return" September 10th (Wednesday) – 3:15 PM

It is an exclusive recognition granted to exhibitors that showcase products, services, or technologies with a high degree of originality, efficiency, and positive impact in the HVAC-R industry, bringing solutions that can shape the industry’s future.

In 2025, Full Gauge Controls received two of these recognitions, receiving the seal for two products that translate the innovative DNA and the commitment to technological excellence:

PCT-122E plus – The dedicated pressure gauge for condensation units contributes to power efficiency in refrigeration systems. It has two analogical outputs for a precise suction and discharge control, as well as three relay outputs for compressors or ON/OFF fans. It has inputs for pressure and temperature sensors, allowing complete system monitoring. It also has an internal clock for automatic start of the economy setpoint, digital inputs for remote commands and communication with the Sitrad software.

VX-1005E – It is a compact and configurable controller for electronic expansion valves, ideal for small evaporators. It performs complete control of refrigeration, including superheating, temperature, defrost, ventilation, illumination, and alarms, without needing a pressure transducer. It is compatible with ON/OFF compressors and VCC, it has outputs for frequency and voltage, Pluggable and Push-In connections, functions such as Smooth Defrost, fast-freezing and economy setpoint, as well as communication with the Sitrad software.

Come meet up close solutions that are transforming the refrigeration business in Brazil and the world. Febrava will be held from September 9th through the 12th, at São Paulo Expo, in São Paulo. The Full Gauge Controls stand is located on the F32 space – an endcap between aisles F and G
