The VT14104 is a tracer gas leak detector for identifying leaks in air conditioning systems. The tester works by detecting tracer gas — a gas mixture of 95% nitrogen (N₂) and 5% hydrogen (H₂). With 7 sensitivity levels, both large and small leaks can be pinpointed. The flexible probe measuring 40 cm provides access to hard-to-reach components.

This leak detection tool is equipped with a microprocessor (MCU) for digital signal processing. Leak detection via tri-color LED indicator and audible sound alert. The sensor can be recalibrated directly to ambient concentration. Auto shut-off after 10 minutes of inactivity. Complies with SAE J1627 and EN14624 standards.

KEY FEATURES

7 sensitivity levels — from major gas leaks to micro-leaks.
SAE J1627 & EN14624 certified — professional measurement standards.
Dual alert system — LED bar for concentration and audible alarm.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Tracer gas only (N₂/H₂ 95/5) — not for direct refrigerant leak detection (R134a/R1234yf).
System must be evacuated & charged with tracer gas — procedure: recover refrigerant, then fill with N₂/H₂ and scan.
Forming gas cylinder to be purchased separately — not included.

Application and functionality

  • Adjustable sensitivity: 7 levels to customize detection based on expected leak size.
  • Visual and audible alerts: Three-color LED bar displays gas concentration; audible alarm warns of leaks. Sound can be muted.
  • Direct reset function: Recalibrate at any time to ambient concentration.
  • Flexible probe: 40 cm length for hard-to-reach areas.
  • Low battery indicator: Warning when batteries are running low.
  • Auto shut-off: After 10 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery.
💡
Tip: Forming gas detection is the industry standard for finding micro-leaks in air conditioning systems — more sensitive than UV dye or electronic refrigerant detectors, and works even on empty systems.
