Introduction The Refrigerant Leak Detector detects all CFC refrigerants such as R-22, R-124, R-11 and R-12. The ultra-sensitive long-life sensor detects the more current, difficult to detect HFC refrigerants such as R-134a, R-404A, and new R-22 replacements, R-410A and R-407C. The Refrigerant Leak Detector’s long, slim gooseneck probe design is easy to use in close areas and for extending into hard-to-reach areas.

instrument can be used to detect Refrigerant. When the sensor in the probe tip detects a Refrigerant, the tic rate will increase, and the instrument sounds a warbling tone while the ALARM light is lit. As the concentration of gas increases so does the tic rate.

need to move the wheel counter anti-clockwise, decreasing the sensitivity, as the sensor moves closer. Replacing the Batteries Replace your 1.5 volt /size R14C alkaline batteries when: • The green READY light off • No light or other activity occurs upon turning the instrument on To replace the batteries: 1.

4. Pull the sensor straight up from its tip housing. 5. Replace the sensor, pressing it straight in. Reassemble in reverse order. Specifications Sensitivity to detect 100ppm of R- 134a/ R- 22 Sensor Type Low power semiconductor Warm Up Time Approx.1 minute Response Time Less than 2 seconds (up to 40%...
