Heated Diode Sensor

Heated diode heats the refrigerant to break down the molecules. When the molecule is destroyed, positively charged chlorine or fluorine ions appear. Heated diodes detect these ions and emit sound, visual or both alerts. This means that a heated diode detector can smell almost any refrigerant used today. Why is that? Most refrigerants contain chlorine or fluorine.

Elitech heated diode leak detectors has the best cost-performance in its class, featuring high accuracy, versatility and quick response. Built-in air-sampling pump makes detection very efficient, quick and reliable. It can detects most common refrigerants, including CEC, HCFC, HFC, HC, PFC, and HFO-1234.
