Advanced Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector

Fieldpiece's SRL2K7 gives field technicians premium performance in an ergonomic, rugged design. The infrared sensor delivers sensitivity down to 0.1 ounces per year and doesn't trigger on oil or moisture like other types of sensors. A replaceable, water-blocking filter keeps water out of the instrument. Visual and audible alarms trigger on CFCs, HFCs, HCFCs and blends. It senses CHANGE in refrigerant levels and is self-zeroing. The SRL2K7 features a sturdy, non-conductive sensor arm, and a rechargeable, 8-hour lithium-ion battery that lasts all day. A magnetic hanger, peak and mute buttons also let technicians work the way they want. Hard case, wall and car chargers, 9-in. flexible and rigid wand extensions, and 10 replacement filters included.

We designed the SRL8 Heated Diode Leak Detector for technicians who like a detector that triggers on ABSOLUTE concentration. The LED and audible alerts increase in intensity as the amount of refrigerant sensed increases. The advanced heated diode sensor delivers sensitivity better than 0.1 ounces/year and lasts up to five years, depending on use. The replaceable, water-blocking filter keeps water from reaching the sensor. Triggers on CFCs, HFCs, HCFCs and blends and is sensitive to R-22. Calibrates automatically or manually with the push of a button. Comes with a rechargeable, user-replaceable 15-hour lithium-ion battery. Carrying case, wall and car chargers, 9-in. flexible and rigid wand extensions, and 10 replacement filters included.
