Portable, battery-powered electronic leak detector to identify gas leaks in GC systems.

• Minimum detection limit of 0.0005 ml/min hydrogen and helium
• Leak detection through differences in thermal conductivity
• Dual leak indicating LCD and audible alarm system
• Portable, rechargeable lithium-ion battery holds up to five hours charge

Gas leaks can cause detector noise and baseline instability, shorten column life, and waste expensive carrier gas. The Agilent GC leak detector is an electronic leak detector, which means that there is no danger of contaminating your system as with less expensive liquid-based leak detectors. Always check your valves, fittings, and traps for leaks after every maintenance, and after thermal cycling as these can loosen some types of fittings.
