Robinair announces three new refrigerant leak detectors

Nov. 27, 2017
The tools are designed to accurately find A/C leaks faster with three sensitivity levels.

Robinair has introduced new air conditioning (A/C) leak detectors that are compatible with nearly all refrigerants used today, including R1234-yf and R-134a. The leak detectors, LD3, LD5 and LD7, meet all industry standards and are now available in North America. Robinair’s new leak detectors are made in the U.S.A. with globally sourced components.

Each of the new A/C leak detectors feature an audible alarm with a stable, long-life sensor that lasts up to ten years. Equipped with an automatic calibration and the ability to reset to ambient, the new Robinair leak detectors also include three adjustable sensitivity levels and a low battery indicator.
