Leak Detection
The H25-IR is an industrial leak detector used for low-level detection and leak rate quantification of CFCs, HFCs, HCFCs, and halogen
gas compounds that are used in air conditioning and refrigeration equipment, fire suppression systems, and various other residential,
commercial and industrial apparatus. The instrument can be used to locate and quantify leaks as well as log and totalize the entire
group of leaks in a system to ensure quality assurance compliance. The unit is capable of detecting 29 of the most commonly used
refrigerants and halogen gas compounds. Additional gas-specific models are available for R-600a and SF6.
Industrial Refrigerant Leak Detector
Infrared Technology
Fewer False Alarms
Fast Response Time
• Utilizes Infrared Technology for Detection
ensures long sensor life and high accuracy
•Fewer False Alarms
use of infrared technology enables response to refrigerants only
•Fast Response Time
responds to leaks in less than 1 second
•High Sensitivity
detects leaks as small as 0.01 oz/yr
•Internal Leak Source
enables calibrations to be made quickly and easily
• Wide Assortment of Probe Options
provides flexibility in your application
•2 Year Warranty

CODE DESCRIPTION
Code A Model Name
Code B Gas Type
Code C Probe Type and Hose Length
Smart Probe
Contains an LCD display that
shows the current leak rate.
Also contains an LED that can
be configured for operation just
as with the Standard Probe,
LED & Button. The probe also
has a keypad that is identical
to the one on the H25-IR’s
front panel, enabling all of the
instrument’s functions, setups
and features to be accessed
via the probe.
The H25-IR instrument, along with its probe type and
hose length, is ordered by specifying 3 codes. The codes
must be listed in the following sequence:

Ordering Information
Standard
Probe
Contains
no buttons
or visual
feedback.
Standard Probe,
LED & Button
Contains a button that can be
configured to either zero the
unit or switch between the
instrument’s search and measure
modes. Also contains an LED that
provides visual feedback. The
LED can be configured to blink
with increasing frequency as the
measured leak rate increases or
light steadily once a user defined
threshold is reached.
For example: To order an H25-IR that detects
CFC type refrigerants; a Standard Probe with
LED & Button; and a 6 foot hose, you would order an H25IR-1-3
