Tru Pointe-IR Flashcards
What does this meter do?
Detects the presence of refrigerant gases. Leak detector. Is not a quantitative meter.
What kind go battery does it use and what is the battery life?
Lithium ion type 3.7v NP-120. 8 Hours continuous use before recharge
How long will the sensor last?
10 years
What causes it to automatically shut off?
10 minutes of inactivity
What is the operation temp?
32° F to 122° F
What does it mean if the low battery LED is illuminated?
Approx one hour of battery life remaining
How do you get into background mode?
Quickly press “peak” button 4 times while in high sensitivity mode
What does background mode do?
- Pin points leaks (most sensitive operating mode)
- instrument will trigger on extremely small refrigerant levels and sudden movements
- This fourth sensitivity mode eliminates high backgrounds
How long does the warm up/calibration sequence take?
30 seconds
What is the default sensitivity level?
High
What sensitivity level should you use for a large leak?
Medium or low
Does this meter require calibration?
No, it auto adjusts to ambient conditions of an area that may have background refrigerant gases present
What types of refrigerant does this detect?
CFCs, HFCs, HCFC blends, and HFO-1234YF in HVAC/R applications
What is the sensitivity?
<0.1 oz/yr (3 g/yr)
What four operating modes does it have?
- Low
- Medium
- High (default)
- Background mode (most sensitive)
Is it ok to draw moisture through the probe?
No
What is the max temp a battery can be exposed to?
