RS PRO Gas Detector, LED

RS PRO GS-5800 W/GS-400, EA-100 Ultrasonic Leak and Emission Detector

The RS PRO GS-5800 W/GS-400, EA-100 is a great value ultrasonic detector which locates the source of the ultrasonic emissions generated by gas or air leaks. This device has many great features including a bar LED display panel and audible tone. It can be used with its transmitter to locate roof, wind-shield and gasket leaks, and to indicate leaks in pipes and conduits. The leakage detector can be used to detect vacuum leaks or pressure leaks in refrigeration and air conditioning installation. A leak will emit an ultrasonic sound as the refrigerant escapes the unit. The detector can be used to pinpoint the exact location of the leak by "homing" in on this sound.

Electrical arcing can be detected with the ultrasonic leak detector. Arcing produces a rich ultrasonic spectrum that is quite noisy. The PVC pipe can be used to extend the sensor horn of the detector for safety purposes.

Features and Benefits
