The Informant Refrigerant Leak Detector
Introduction
The Informant Leak Detector (Figure 1) is a portable, battery powered
instrument designed to pinpoint the location of refrigerant leaks in air
conditioning and refrigerant systems, chillers or cold storage units.
The detector is designed to be quickly responsive to all refrigerants, even
when high levels of background vapors or refrigerant are present. No man-
ual sensitivity adjustments are necessary during the inspection process.
The detector is suitable for HVAC Service Technicians, Refrigerant Ser-
vice Technicians, Plant Maintenance Departments, Automotive Service
Facilities, and Refrigerant & Environmental Chamber Manufactures who
are in need of a small, lightweight and rugged detector that is capable of
detecting and then pinpointing small to large gas leaks in tight spaces
such as those found in refrigeration units and automobile engine compart-
ments.
