AURORA, IL - JB Industries is proud to unveil the new, revolutionary LD 5000 PROWLER refrigerant gas leak detector. Using our new proprietary JB Electrochemi­cal sensor technology for unparalleled accuracy coupled with the unique user features, there simply is no better hand held probe type service leak detector system on the market. The LD 5000 uses a long life sensor that is designed to detect the more current and more difficult HFC refriger­ants such as R-134a, R-410A, R-404A, R-407C, and R-507 in addition to all HCFC R-22 and refrigerants including SNAP approved hydrocar­bon blends and the replacement R-1234yf. The sensitivity is extremely accurate for all HFC, HCFC and blended refrigerants as well as the new HFO refrigerants. The sensor is durable and will not be damaged by overexposure to refrigerant gas or contaminated by condensate water. The technology provides for low battery consumption, excellent circuit stability, extremely long sensor life, and the electrochemical function of the sensor does not diminish over time with use. The sensor life has been tested to be greater than ten year and it is safe to use in a combustible atmosphere. The PROWLER features a large backlit LCD screen that flips upward so the user can adjust the screen position for better visibility. If a leak is detected, there is an audible alarm that will sound, vibration in handle, and bar graph on the screen. The LCD display also indicates the amount of remain­ing battery life. The LD 5000’s unique digital leak size indicator takes the guesswork out of whether or not to repair a small leak. The adjustable LCD display is independent from the audio and/or vibrating handle alarms and sensitivity level, allowing for the precise pinpointing of the leak source. Certified to meet the Standard SAE J2791.
