    4.2. Recommended Leak Detection Procedures 4.2.1. Principle of detection The SF6 LEAKMATE is built for relative detection, i.e. it will respond to positive changes in SF content of the sample air. Therefore, any background contamination is effectively suppressed. The RESET button is used to trigger zeroing manually should conditions change during detection.
