Introduction
GAS-Mate is an intrinsically safe instrument designed to detect leaks of a variety
of combustible gases and flammable refrigerants. It can be used for many leak
testing applications including, but not limited to:
Combustion appliances
Gas-fired furnaces
Gas stoves
Hydrocarbon-based (flammable) refrigerants
Gas pipelines, valves and meters
Heat exchanger testing with combustible gases
GAS-Mate is sensitive to a variety of hydrocarbons and other gases including, but
not limited to:
Natural Gas
Cyclopentane
Isobutane (R600a)
Methane
Propane (R290)
Ethane
Butane
Ammonia
Ethanol
Hydrogen Forming Gas (95/5)
NOTE:
GAS-Mate does NOT detect carbon monoxide (CO).
