TPI Refrigerant Gas Leak Detector 750a with Soft Pouch and Batteries
Includes
- Leak detector
- Sensor: A712
- Soft Pouch A700
- Instruction Manual
- Battery
The 750a features 400 hour sensor life under normal use; a spare sensor is included with each instrument for a total of 800 hours of continuous use and can detect leaks as small as 0.2 ounces per year (R134a / R22).
- 0.2 ounce per year sensitivity
- Detect all existing refrigerants and blends including 404A, PURON ® and R-507 (AZ50®)
- One hand thumb wheel operation
Features
- Pinpoint small leaks easily by elimination of background concentration with fully adjustable tic rate
- Visual indicators for power, tic rate and battery replacement
- One-hand operation
- Optional earphone attachment
Applications
- Check for leaks in refrigeration systems
- Test for leaks in air conditioning systems and cooling units
- Find leaks in automotive air conditioning systems
Sensor life can be extended by fitting a ½" long piece of vinyl tubing onto the sensor tip. This tubing helps prevent foreign material from getting into the sensor during tests; clean or replace the tube regularly.
Technical Tips
Even though TPI refrigerant leak detector sensors are very durable and can last up to 400 hours, sensor life can be aided by press fitting a ½" long piece of vinyl tubing onto the sensor tip. This tubing helps prevent foreign material from getting into the sensor during tests. Clean or replace the tube regularly.
Whether testing for leaks in air conditioning, refrigeration, or automotive AC, the versatile 700 series spans the diverse needs of technicians, refrigeration engineers, and maintenance personnel around the globe. From freezer coils to heat pumps, experience fast, reliable results that save you both time and money.
- Detects all existing refrigerants and blends including 404A, PURON 410A and R-507 (AZ50)
- 400 hour individual sensor life; a spare sensor is included with each instrument for a total of 800 hours of continuous sensor use.
- Fast response; Begin testing immediately after power on
The TPI 750a is a state-of-the-art refrigerant leak detector capable of detecting all halogen based gases. Selectable sensitivity combined with an adjustable tick rate will allow any service professional to pinpoint those tough to find leaks even in contaminated environments.
Optional Accessories
- Soft Case with strap A755
- Earphone A710
- Test vial A713
Frequently Asked Questions
Will TPI refrigerant leak detectors pick up the new 410A PURON refrigerants?
Yes, all of the 700 series refrigerant leak detectors pick up all current refrigerants and blends, including 404A and 410A (PURON).
Should I buy a thumb wheel "tic" adjust or push button "tic" adjust?
The thumb wheel gives you a manual adjustment and the push button adjusts top reset levels. Both are easy to use and work equally well. It's simply a matter of personal preference.
Why would I want a pump on my refrigeration leak detector?
Generally, refrigerant leak detectors with pumps respond and clear faster as you enter or leave the leak area. This is most important when locating small leaks.
I have a hard time finding a leak when on a rooftop in windy conditions. Will I be able to find a leak in the conditions with your refrigerant leak detector?
Always remember that the refrigerant will travel with the wind. Position yourself down wind and work your way "up stream" in order to trace down a leak. The harder the wind is blowing, the more the concentration of refrigerant will be diluted in the air. It is difficult to find these leaks, but it can be done.
Is there a way to determine how many parts per million (ppm) a leak of 0.1 ounce per year(oz/yr) is?
A leak of 134a refrigerant measuring 0.1 oz/yr is equivalent to approximately 380 to 400 ppm. A leak measuring 0.2oz/yr is equivalent to approximately 760 to 800 ppm.
Can any TPI refrigerant leak detectors to beused to test for SF6? Sulfer hexafluoride (SF6) is used in high voltage insulation as found in high voltage lines and circuit breakers. SF6 is toxic and emitted into the air when high voltage insulation begins to degrade.
Is there anything I can do to extend the life of the sensor?
Even though the sensors are very durable, you can extend the sensor life of your leak detector by press fitting a ½" long piece of vinyl tubing onto the sensor tip. This will help prevent foreign material from getting into the sensor during tests. Clean or replace the tube regularly.
