Super thin cracks on pipes, old or worn air leak gaskets. Even the smallest gas leaks in natural gas pipelines can cause major problems. Therefore, the testo 316-1 gas leak detector will help you accurately determine with high reliability the location of this gas leak phenomenon.
Testo 316-1 gas leak detector. Rugged and easy method for detecting methane (CH4)
The testo 316-1 is a gas leak detector that is particularly easy to use and has adjustable sensitivity. The leak detector is equipped with sound and light warning functions. The yellow LED lights up when the CH value4 higher than 200 ppm. The LED turns red when the CH value number is reached4 reaches 10,000 ppm. This special feature allows you to pinpoint the exact location of the leak. The testo 316-1 is also equipped with a flexible gooseneck probe to locate air leaks in places that are particularly difficult or impossible to reach normally.
The optional TopSafe protective cover is designed to protect your detector from impact and dust.
