Advanced Detection CapabilitiesThe Metravi RLD-01 is engineered to identify low concentrations of refrigerant gases, with a detection threshold as low as 4 grams per year. Its flexible probe accesses tight spaces, making it suitable for a range of applications including servicing air conditioning units and refrigeration systems. The device responds rapidly, alerting users within 3 seconds of leak detection.
User-Friendly OperationFeaturing seven levels of sensitivity adjustment and both visual and audible alarms, the RLD-01 allows users to customize settings for different environments. Its manual control mode and automatic zero adjustment simplify operation without compromising accuracy. The handheld design ensures convenient portability, while the ABS plastic body provides durability.
Reliable Performance in Varied ConditionsThe RLD-01 operates effectively within 0C to 52C and up to 80% relative humidity (non-condensing), accommodating diverse climate requirements. The battery status indicator and 3V DC power supply (using two AA batteries) ensure uninterrupted usage during extended fieldwork. Its compact dimensions and lightweight construction add to usability for long inspection periods.
