Spx Service Solutions tifxl-1a Refrigerant Leak Detector

Product Description

The SPX SERVICE SOLUTIONS tifxl-1a is a battery-powered refrigerant leak detector designed for detecting gas leaks in HVAC and refrigeration systems. Running on 2 C-cell batteries with a maximum battery life of 40 hours, this handheld instrument allows HVAC technicians to locate refrigerant leaks without tethering to a power source. An alarm-based status indicator alerts the technician when a detectable gas concentration is sensed. The unit weighs approximately 3 pounds and ships complete with batteries included, making it field-ready out of the box. A 2-year limited warranty backs the instrument against defects.

This detector is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC and refrigeration service work where technicians need to locate refrigerant leaks quickly. Typical applications include checking line sets, coil connections, service valves, and brazed or flared joints on split systems, package units, and commercial refrigeration equipment. The cordless, battery-powered design makes it practical for rooftop units, crawlspaces, and confined equipment rooms where outlet access is limited.

Installation Notes

This instrument is intended for use by licensed HVAC and refrigeration technicians. Before performing leak detection, shut off or isolate the system as required by local codes and safe work procedures. Allow the detector to warm up per standard operating procedure before sweeping connections and joints. Do not expose the sensor tip to liquid refrigerant, as direct liquid contact can damage the sensing element.
