Sniffer Leak Detectors:
GasCheck Handheld Sniffer Leak Detectors

Description
A handheld, portable, battery operated leak detector for sniffing helium and other gases using thermal conductivity technology. Principally calibrated for helium, the unit has multiple gas selection. Fitted with a large back lit LCD, the display shows unit setting and numerical readout, even in dark, confined spaces. When searching for leaks the unit can easily be set into auto-range, giving the maximum sensitivity when required. Peak hold control allows accurate reading of leak rate, which is useful where external or traceable standards apply. The Gascheck uses a robust micro thermal conductivity sensor to detect any gas providing it is different from air. It is calibrated for Helium but works well with Ammonia, Argon, Butane, Hydrogen, SF6 and some refrigerants.

Try Before You Buy
If you see how the Gas Check will perform on your application before you buy, you may rent a new GasCheck 3000 for $225 for a one week period. LACO will then credit you up to $200 towards the purchase price of this detector if you decide to purchase with a credit card by the end of the weeks rental. Otherwise, you may return the leak detector and pay only the rental fee.
The Gas Check 3000 sniffer leak detector is in stock and available for immediate purchase, rental or demonstration.
