New J2791-Certified Refrigerant Leak Detector

Tracer Products has unveiled the TP-9364 PRO-Alert 2791, an electronic refrigerant leak detector that utilizes an infrared sensor to accurately detect refrigerant leaks down to 0.1oz/year (3 g/year). Its three-position sensitivity switch minimizes false triggering and allows for easy diagnosis of small, medium and large leaks. The unit is sensitive to R-12, R-134a and all other HFC refrigerants, and is certified to meet the new SAE J2791 standard for electronic refrigerant detectors. Unlike heated sensors, the PRO-Alert 2791’s infrared sensor offers consistent response throughout its life, and will not become contaminated by exposure to large amounts of refrigerant. The unit’s high-efficiency air sampling pump provides quicker response and quicker clearing (“zeroing”). The PRO-Alert 2791 is powered by a rechargeable NiMH battery, which provides over six hours of use between charges. On-board diagnostics indicate charging status, and alert the user to low battery or infrared sensor failure. The unit can also be used with a 120 VAC power adapter and a 12 VDC power adapter with cigarette lighter plug (included). All components are packed in a rugged plastic carrying case.
