Description

The D‑TEK Stratus™ leak detector represents the most advanced technology in portable refrigerant leak detection. This instrument integrates a fully redesigned infrared sensor that provides longer service life and reduces false negatives caused by environmental changes or difficult conditions.

The “cloud hunting” mode displays gas concentration in ppm on the screen, speeding up the identification of the general leak area, while the “pinpoint” mode allows precise localization of the leak.

The D‑TEK Stratus™ is equipped with a large, easy‑to‑read LCD display and visual/audible indicators that guide the operator during diagnosis. The sensor is field‑replaceable and the lithium‑ion battery is rechargeable and easily replaceable, ensuring long operational life. The entire instrument is supplied in a sturdy carrying case and includes numerous accessories, making it ready for use immediately.
