Testo 316-1 Gas Leak Detector for Natural Gas Pipes

Overview

Even the smallest natural gas line leaks can have serious consequences, whether the seals are ageing or the pipe has hairline cracks. The Testo 316-1 electronic gas leak detector helps technicians locate those leaks quickly and reliably in natural gas pipes and equipment in residences, buildings, workplaces and other locations.

The testo 316-1 is designed for fast, convenient methane detection. Its user-friendly design lets you adjust the sensitivity with a rotary control, and a flexible gooseneck probe reaches awkward pipe joints and fittings. A two-stage LED alarm progresses from yellow to red as the methane concentration rises, backed by an audible signal, so leaks are easy to pinpoint. An optional TopSafe protective cover adds dirt resistance and impact protection.
