Description

The GIR-10 Gas Detector is specifically designed for detecting even the smallest SF6 gas concentrations. Its advanced technology allows precise identification of leakages, including their exact location and size. With a lightweight, portable design and simple operation, it’s an essential tool for ensuring the integrity and safety of SF6 gas-filled equipment.

The leakage detection is carried out using a hand-held instrument, which has a movable gooseneck with gas inlet on the front side. An exchangeable filter prevents particles from being sucked in, thus protecting the infrared sensor.
