Product Description
✔ Optimal Leak Detection
The Panther Handheld Leak Detector follows on from the success of its predecessor, the GasCheck series. Designed for the search and location of helium and other gas leaks, the Panther feels natural to hold in the hand during use.
Simply draw the instrument along the area that requires testing at approximately one inch per second. When a leak is detected, retrace the route at a slower rate until the leak is located. Once the leak is located, hold the instrument over the leak until the measurement stabilizes.
Quickly detect helium in easy to read units of PPM with sensitivity as low as 25 ppm in the highest sensitivity.
✔ Internal Piezo Pump
The Panther Handheld Leak Detector utilizes a micro thermal conductivity sensor which offers fast and sensitive detection for gases that are different from air or nitrogen. The internal piezo pump offers extremely stable sample flow and makes it highly stable in draughty environments. The Panther has also demonstrated its relative immunity in high electro-magnetic field environments, eg MRI scanners.
Using gases other than helium or hydrogen as the tracer gas results in degraded sensitivity due to their lower thermal conductivity.
✔ Panther PRO VS Panther
The Panther PRO includes all of the features as the Panther plus:
- Bluetooth connectivity
- Datalogging - View and export up to 10 days of Panther data into Excel, CSV, or PNG
- Bluetooth dongle
- Premium carrying case
