    In relation to the thermography post !!!!



    After reading the thermography post got me thinking of using this method for detecting refrigerant leaks.

    This method may already be in use in the industry, This may be a stupid question but if i knew i wouldn't ask it.

    If there is such a tool has anyone used it and how effective is it?


    your only as good as your last job

    alright mate how are you?
    the leak detector post is to find out if my 2 are as ****e as i think they are !!!! the other post is just pure curiosity but the cat may get hit by a truck we will see.

    obviously leak testing is heart breaking and totally soul destroying for us all, if can make it easier for myself with a decent detector happy days !!!!

    get an apprentice-get him through his 2079 and give him his moby back when he finds the leak-best way of getting a new sniffer is by emptying a store and telling ur boss ur sniffer didnt flinch!haha

    Hi Coldman.
    I seen thermography cameras spot leaks on a demo video presentation, the sensitive cameras spot the temp changes in the air. Never tried it myself.

    There is a camera for spotting leaks, I don't know the resolution, check on Flir's web site, there is a shortm film to demonstrate how it works.
