AccuProbe Leak Detector with Heated Sensor Tip |
Find every leak fast and sure, and know how big.
This is the only tool you need for fast, easy, and certain leak detection. The heated sensor tip of the YELLOW JACKETR ACCUPROBE? Leak Detector positively identifies the leak source for all refrigerants. That includes CFCs such as R-12 and R-502, HCFCs as small as 0.03oz./yr., and HFC leaks of 0.06 oz./yr., even R-404A and R-410A.
Frequency of flashes in the tip and audible beeping increases the closer you get to the leak source. You zero-in and the exclusive Smart Alarm? LED shows how big or small the leak on a scale of 1 to 9. Maximum value helps you determine if the leak needs immediate repair.
Service life of the replaceable sensor is more than 300 hours with minimal cleaning and no adjustments. Replaceable filters help keep out moisture and dust that can trigger false sensing and alarms.
Three sensitivity levels include ultra-high to detect leaks that could be missed with other detection systems.

Technology Comparison – Heated Sensor or Negative Corona? |
|
Heated Sensor Leak Detectors
When the heated sensing element is exposed to refrigerant, an electrochemical reaction changes the electrical resistance within the element causing an alarm. The sensor is refrigerant specific with superior sensitivity to all HFCs, HCFCs, and CFCs and minimal chance of false alarms. When exposed to large amounts of refrigerant which could poison other systems, the heated sensor clears quickly and does not need recalibration before reuse. |
|
Negative Corona Leak Detectors
In the sensor of an old-style corona detector, high voltage applied to a pointed electrode creates a corona. When refrigerant breaks the corona arc, the degree of breakage generates the level of the alarm. This technology has good sensitivity to R-12 and R-22, but only fair for R-134a, and poor for R-410A, R-404A, and R-407C. Sensitivity decreases with exposure to dirt, oils and water. And false alarms can be triggered by dust, dirt specks, soap bubbles, humidity, smoke, small variations in the electrode emission, high levels of hydrocarbon vapors, and other non-refrigerant variables. |

Tips for detecting system leaks |
| 1. Inspect entire A/C system for signs of oil leakage, corrosion cracks, or other damage. Follow the system in a continuous path so no potential leaks are missed. |
| 2. Make sure there is enough refrigerant in system (about 15% of system capacity or 50 psi min.) to generate pressure to detect leaks. |
| 3. Check all service access port fittings. Check seals in caps. |
| 4. Move detector probe at 1"/second within 1/4" of suspected leak area. |
| 5. Refrigerant is heavier than air so position probe below test point. |
| 6. Minimize air movement in area to make it easier to pinpoint the leak. |
| 7. Verify an apparent leak by blowing air into suspected leak. |
| 8. When checking for evaporator leaks, check for gas in condensate drain tube. |
| 9. Use heated sensor type detector for difficult-to-detect R-134a, R-410A, R-407C, and R-404A. |
