Non-Helium Tracer Gas Systems

Not all applications require helium. LACO designs tracer gas leak test systems using a range of alternative gases, chosen for cost, availability, or industry-specific requirements. These systems expand testing options while still providing reliable leak detection capability.

Standard Features
  • Configurable for refrigerants (R410a, R134a, and others)
  • Compatible with inert gases such as argon, krypton, and nitrogen
  • Supports common gases including CO₂, hydrogen, methane, and ammonia
  • Specialty tracer gases available, including SF₆ (sulfur hexafluoride)
  • System design tailored to tracer gas properties and application needs
Applications
  • Refrigeration and HVAC systems
  • Automotive fuel and fluid systems
  • Industrial gas storage and transport
  • Electrical and power systems using SF₆ or other specialty gases
