Its intelligent design, user-friendly interface and heated “environment sensing” tip offer highly accurate readings and virtually eliminates false alarms, the company says.
“The new ACT825 A/C Leak Detector selects the best sensor setting and almost instantaneously detects extremely small levels of chlorofluorocarbon gases. This helps techs avoid interference and generates accurate, reliable readings,” says John Majerowski, Snap-on director of product management. “It has great reach with a flexible 15.5-in. probe, and this leak detector is battery-powered with a comfortable push-button keypad that offers easy function controls needed in any busy shop.”
According to Snap-on, the tin oxide sensor in the ACT825 is capable of detecting HFC, CFC, HCFC and refrigerant blends in three sensitivity ranges and has a sensor life of 2,000 hours.
It also has a “restart” feature to help prevent faulty readings. The Snap-on ACT825 A/C Leak Detector meets and exceeds J2791 (R134a) and J2913 (R1234yf) certifications, the company says.
