Testo 515 EX Refrigerant Leak Detector
The Testo 515 EX Refrigerant Leak Detector provides fast, sensitive detection of refrigerant leaks. At its highest sensitivity setting, it detects leak rates down to 1 g/a and delivers response times of less than two seconds. Its flexible and robust gooseneck lets users position the sensor in narrow or difficult-to-reach areas.
Clear display options help users locate leaks and follow changes during testing. Users can select numeric values, a bar graph or a trend curve, while colour display modes make leak progression easier to see. Optical, audible and vibration alarms also provide clear notification when the instrument detects a leak.
The Testo 515 EX Refrigerant Leak Detector detects HCFC, HFC, HFO, HCFO, HC refrigerants including R290, and blends. Interchangeable sensors allow the testo 515 Ex platform to support both refrigerant and flammable gas detection. ATEX and the listed UL/CSA Ex standards support use in potentially explosive Zone 2 environments, while the supplied refrigeration sensor configures this package for refrigerant leak detection.
