Extech RD350 koelmiddel-lekdetector

HVAC technicians and refrigeration service professionals rely on the Extech RD350 to pinpoint refrigerant leaks in air conditioning and cooling systems. This handheld detector uses a heated diode sensor to identify CFCs, HCFCs, HFCs, and HFOs, including R-134a, R-410a, and R-1234yf, with a sensitivity of 0.1 oz/year for R-134a. The flexible 16-inch probe reaches into tight spaces, while the multi-color LED bar graph and variable frequency alarm provide clear visual and audible leak indication.
