    One gallon of water occupies 0.1337 cubic ft. Calculate the number of gallons a tank holds by dividing the tank volume by 0.1337.
    Tablets—Tablets are easy to use for small volumes of water, such as toilets and septic systems. They dissolve in five minutes. Tablets that come in a packet include instructions for detecting a toilet leak.
    Liquid—Liquid is a good choice for larger volumes of water, such as sewers. It disperses faster than tablets and powder.
    Powder—Powder is the best choice for the largest volumes of water, such as ponds, piping systems in power plants, and cooling towers.

    Acoustic Imaging Gas Leak Detectors

    Image of Product. Front orientation. ZoomedIn view. Contains Inset, Border. Gas Leak Detectors. Acoustic Imaging Gas Leak Detectors.
    Locate leaks up to 10 times faster than traditional leak-detecting methods. These detectors use 124 microphones to determine the precise location and size of leaks in compressed air and specific gas systems. The screen displays a high-resolution acoustic image that’s overlaid on a digital live shot of your facility to help you visualize the leak. It also displays analytics related to the leak, such as the rate and the potential cost savings of patching your system. You can capture the on-screen view through photos and video to review later. With a built-in flashlight, they remain accurate even in low-light spaces. Light enough to carry with one hand, you can bring these detectors on the go. A 650 ft. range means you can use them from one end of your facility to another, or to detect in hard-to-reach systems.
    Connect the detector to your computer using Wi-Fi or the included USB cable to quickly transfer collected data.

    Check for combustible gas leaks in equipment such as pipes, valves, and storage tanks. When these detectors sense combustible gas, they alert you with a warning light and a continuous beeping sound. Unlike our other gas leak detectors, these are compact and can fit in your pocket. However, they only detect combustible gas, not toxic gas.
    Static Absorption Detector—Static absorption detectors also indicate the presence of static that could ignite flammable gases or vapors. To ensure strong charges aren’t present, test for static absorption before entering an area to test for gas leaks.

    Dye Kit with Sealant

    Image of Product. Dye Kit. Front orientation. Leak-Detecting Dyes. Leak-Detecting Dye Kits for HVAC Systems, Liquid, Fluorescent Yellow.

    Dye Kit

    With bright-colored dye and a fully equipped kit, you have everything you need to spot leaks in your HVAC system. These kits come with the correct amount of dye required for your system's size. Inject the dye into your system and scan it with the UV light—the dye is fluorescent, so it’s easy to spot most leaks right away. For small leaks, let the dye circulate for 24 hours and then inspect it again. Use the dye cleaner before you fix a leak. If the repair isn’t sufficient, you’ll be able to spot more dye.
    Four 0.5 oz. UV Dye and Sealant Containers—Kits with UV dye and sealant are formulated to seal hard-to-find leaks from the inside of your system. The dye and sealant formula is non-polymer and oil soluble, making it safe to stay in your system indefinitely. Reinforce seals from the outside for a permanent fix.
    ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 86 and ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 97—Kits that meet ANSI/ASHRAE adhere to standards for chemical stability.
    SAE J2297—Kits that meet SAE J2297 include dye that was originally made to detect leaks in automotive AC systems.

    LCD Display

    This detector converts ultrasonic waves to an audible sound so you can find leaks. Unlike typical leak detectors, this unit doesn’t rely only on the presence of a gas to work, making it suitable for a wider range of applications. In addition to gas leaks, it identifies ultrasonic sound caused by failing solenoids, valves, and bearings.

    Three times more sensitive than standard refrigerant detectors, these infrared detectors can identify leaks as small as 0.03 oz. per year. They have an easy-to-read LCD screen that displays the concentration of gas in parts per million (PPM). When a leak is detected, a digital display lights up and the device emits a sound. Check for leaks in hard-to-reach areas using the built-in flexible probe. Use them to detect a variety of halogenated refrigerants.
