The Bacharach Informant 2 leak detector is designed for both pinpoint detection of both refrigerant and combustible gas leaks.The Informant 2 has a unique combination of state-of-the-art patented sensor
technology, advanced software design and microprocessor controlled
circuitry to offer the user unmatched precision and tremendous speed.
It is the fastest, most sensitive, reliable, and accurate
leak detector on the market today.
The user can swap sensor tips within seconds and never worry about adjusting
sensitivity levels because it's taken care of automatically, even when high
levels of background vapors or refrigerants are present. The
refrigerant sensor tip is finely tapered to 0.2 inch diameter, so the user
can get in between coils and fittings, gaining access to hard-to-reach
areas.
The detector features an audible
indicator with a mute option along with sequential LEDs to monitor
increasing concentrations of refrigerant or combustible gases. Dual bar
graph displays show visual confirmation regardless of the position the
instrument is in. A flashing light at the tip of the probe visually defines the sampling location. Features
