Leak detector refrigerant details
Tracerline PRO-Alert Electronic Refrigerant Leak Detector (TP9360)
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
Advanced Heated-Diode Sensor Technology: Provides superior sensitivity and rapid response for detecting refrigerant gases.
Optimum Leak Detection Capability: Identifies leaks as small as 0.25 oz/year (7 g/year), ensuring even minor refrigerant losses are found.
Broad Refrigerant Compatibility: Effectively detects R-12, R-134a, R-1234yf, and other common halogenated refrigerants.
Long-Lasting Sensor Life: Offers up to 200 hours or more of operational life, reducing the frequency of sensor replacement.
Dual Leak Indication: Features a variable-intensity audible alarm and a flashing LED to provide clear, immediate feedback for precise leak pinpointing.
Automatic Self-Calibration: Adjusts to neutralize background contamination, ensuring consistent and accurate readings without manual intervention.

Included in Product Package: Sensor, Replacement filters, (2) D cell batteries, Rugged carrying case
Preparation: Ensure the detector's batteries are installed. Open the carrying case and remove the TP9360 unit.
Power On: Locate the power switch on the detector and turn it to the 'ON' position. Allow a few moments for the unit to warm up and self-calibrate. The detector will typically emit a steady tone during this initial phase.
Adjust Sensitivity: If applicable, select the appropriate sensitivity level (High or Low) based on your needs. Start with High sensitivity for general scanning, and switch to Low if the alarm triggers frequently due to high background refrigerant levels.
Scan for Leaks: Slowly move the flexible probe of the detector around potential leak areas in the refrigeration system. Maintain a steady, slow pace (e.g., 1-2 inches per second). Ensure the probe tip is close to the components you are inspecting.
Pinpoint the Leak: Listen for the variable-intensity audible alarm and observe the flashing LED. As the detector approaches a leak, the alarm will increase in frequency or intensity, and the LED will flash more rapidly. Continue to move the probe back and forth in small motions until the alarm reaches its peak, indicating the precise location of the leak.
Confirm Leak: Once a potential leak is identified, move the probe away from the area to allow the detector to clear, then re-scan the suspected spot to confirm the leak location.
Power Off: After use, turn the detector off to conserve battery life. Store the unit and its accessories securely in the rugged carrying case.
