The miniTracerTM is a sensitive, precise handheld sniffer leak detector that uses helium as a tracer gas. Designed for simple operation and exact identification of system leaks, this sniffer leak detector is ideal for lab and industrial applications.
Features
- Audible signal to easily identify when a leak is detected
- Select high or low sensitivity settings to customize for your application
- Solution/soap-free leak detection eliminates system contamination
- Simple and clean operation
- Carrying case included.
Try Before You Buy
If you want see how the miniTracerTM will perform on your application before you buy, you may "try and buy" a new MiniTracer for $250 for a one week period. We 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 "try and buy" fee.
