Testo 513 Gas Leak Detector with Flexible Probe
Testo 513 Gas Leak Detector with Flexible Probe is designed to detect flammable gases such as methane, propane, butane and hydrogen. It is suited to leak testing on residential and industrial gas boilers as well as similar systems. High sensitivity and a flexible probe help users locate even small leaks in areas that may be difficult to reach.
Fast response and recovery times of less than two seconds help make routine leak checks efficient. The instrument provides both optical and audible leak alarms, giving the user clear warning when gas is detected. Selectable numeric and bar graph display modes also allow readings to be viewed in the format best suited to the task.
For convenient everyday use, the Testo 513 Gas Leak Detector with Flexible Probe combines automatic zeroing with manual zero adjustment. Its sensor can be replaced by the user, helping to reduce downtime and ongoing operating costs. The instrument uses three AA alkaline batteries and provides a stated battery life of 10 hours.
