Not only is it easy to use and maintain, but the processor-controlled instrument also features both an audible alarm and LED bar graph display, letting you know if any leak, small medium or large, has been detected. The SF6 Leakmate automatically compensates all ambient influences including temperature changes or movement of air in the room. You can be sure of accurate results with Intelligent control, which sets up the instrument appropriately for the current ambient conditions.

The featured ‘Auto-Shift’ function compensates for any SF6 concentration that may be present at the measuring site, e.g. caused by previously escaped leakage gas. SF6 Leakmate automatically detects the highest present gas concentrations and selects the corresponding measuring range. It then uses the present gas concentration as its zero lines, and begins to look for even higher gas concentrations.

When a leak is approached it will be indicated both audibly and visually, thus enabling the user to determine leaks in an already seriously contaminated area. It can be helpful in the assessment of large leaks to get an idea of a component’s leak tightness, before the much more sensitive SF6 LeakCheck P1:p must be used.
