Product Description
The INFICON IN-718-202-G1 is an intrinsically safe combustible gas leak detector designed for reliable identification of leaks involving combustible gases, flammable refrigerants, and hydrogen-forming gases. Intrinsically safe design means the unit is engineered to prevent ignition in hazardous atmospheres, making it suitable for real-world field conditions where safety cannot be compromised. Powered by a nickel metal hydride battery with up to 25 hours of runtime, the IN-718-202-G1 supports extended service calls without frequent recharging. It is manufactured in the USA and backed by a three-year warranty, making it a durable, low-maintenance tool for daily professional use.
This detector is intended for use in heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, and automotive service applications. HVAC technicians, refrigeration mechanics, and automotive service professionals use it to locate leaks during installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting. Its versatile sensing capability across multiple gas types makes it a single-tool solution for shops and field crews that work across multiple refrigerant and fuel-gas systems.

Compatibility
Designed for use in heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, and automotive service environments where detection of combustible gases or flammable refrigerants is required.
Installation Notes
This instrument is typically deployed by licensed HVAC technicians, refrigeration mechanics, and automotive service professionals. Before performing a leak check, shut down the system under test and allow pressures to stabilize according to standard service procedures. Follow all applicable safety codes and employer safety protocols when working in confined spaces or areas where combustible gases may be present. Do not expose the detector sensor tip to liquid refrigerant or oil, as direct liquid contact can damage the sensing element.
