RLD-H10G Refrigerant Leak Detector
Code No. LIT-1927315
Issued November 13, 2015
Description
The RLD-H10G is a professional grade leak
detector for use by refrigeration and air
conditioning technicians. This detector senses
all CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants and
blends, such as R12, R502, R22, R404a,
R507, R134a and R410A, among others. The
RLD-H10G plugs into a 120 VAC outlet.
Features
• positive ion emission heated diode sensor
provides the most sensitivity available
today, while still detecting all halogenated
refrigerant gases
• halogen selective sensing eliminates many
sources of possible false alarms due to
background contamination
• high quality air pump supplies constant air
flow to sensor so it responds quickly to
leaks; also helps sensor recover quickly
after exposure to refrigerant so leak can be
verified
• visual and audible signal facilitates sensing
in noisy equipment rooms with 360°
visibility and piercing tone; frequency of
noise/light indicates magnitude of leak
• exceeds SAE J1627 moving probe
specification; minimizes service time
because the leak is found the first time, is
verifiable, and the fix can be confirmed
• external calibration source indicates when
the sensor is working properly and serves
as a reference point to judge leak size
