PGM-IR

PGM-IR

Portable Leak Detector

  • Cut leak inspection times by 50%
  • Detection as low as 1 ppm for all refrigerant types
  • Infrared sensor unaffected by changes in temperature and humidity
  • Audible tick-rate, real-time ppm display to pinpoint leak source
  • Easily locates leaks in display cases

Description

The PGM-IR offers superior performance and functionality for low ppm level leak detection of refrigerants, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrous Oxide or Sulfur Hexafluoride. A built-in library of 50 refrigerants enables the PGM-IR to accurately detect the smallest leaks at their source. The unit is immune to sudden changes in temperature or humidity and to over-exposure. The PGM-IR requires no zeroing of positive readings with extended exposure to gas. It has a data logging capacity of up to 200 readings.

With its high flow rate, real-time ppm concentrations or TWA values are displayed instantly with corresponding audible tick-rate indicator to precisely pinpoint leaks. Rapid clearing time enables accurate ambient-air leak detection using the probe along a chiller or display-case. A re-zeroing algorithm and filter/bladder system allows the unit to be used in contaminated areas without affecting target gas readings. The rechargeable Li-ion battery provides a minimum of 8 hours of runtime for all-day usage.
