Electronic AC Leak Detector - Mastercool

The Mastercool 56100 Electronic AC Leak Detector is a professional-grade tool engineered for accurate and efficient refrigerant leak detection across diverse automotive, residential, and industrial HVAC/R systems. Meeting and exceeding SAE J1627 standards, this detector provides consistent and reliable performance for technicians and mechanics in demanding service environments.

Key Features

• High Sensitivity Detection: Pinpoints leaks as small as 0.01 oz/year, enabling early diagnosis of minor refrigerant losses and preventing larger system failures.
• Digital Signal Processing: Utilizes a microprocessor to deliver stable, repeatable readings with rapid response times, crucial for accurately locating refrigerant leaks.
• Adjustable Sensitivity: Features three sensitivity levels and a dedicated reset function to effectively filter out background interference, allowing for precise identification of the leak source.
• Flexible 16" Probe: The 43 cm flexible probe provides enhanced access to confined and challenging areas, including around evaporators, condensers, compressor fittings, and intricate line sets.
• Clear Visual and Audible Alerts: A five-level LED bar graph combined with a variable frequency alarm offers immediate and distinct indications of leak presence and relative size.
