Inficon Gas-Mate Combustible Gas Leak Detector

The INFICON Gas-Mate 718-202-G41 is a professional combustible gas leak detector designed for HVAC-R, heating, refrigeration and appliance service technicians. Built for fast and reliable leak detection, Gas-Mate is suitable for locating leaks in combustible gases, flammable refrigerants and hydrogen forming gas. INFICON describes Gas-Mate as intrinsically safe for flammable refrigerant and combustible gas leak detection.

With adjustable sensitivity, automatic zeroing and clear visual/audio leak indication, the Gas-Mate helps technicians quickly trace leaks around pipework, valves, fittings, appliances, refrigeration systems and gas-fired equipment. It is well suited to modern HVAC-R service work involving flammable refrigerants such as R290 propane and R600a isobutane, as well as natural gas, propane, butane and hydrogen forming gas.
