eL-720 Carbon Dioxide Gas Leak Detector
Description
The AccuTools® eL-720 Carbon Dioxide Gas Leak Detector is the most technologically advanced of its kind. The fully automatic eL-720’s low power requirements, small size, and high sensitivity combine to create a tool which is easy to handle and ultra effective at locating even the most difficult-to-find leaks. The infrared sensor will make false alarms a thing of the past when finding even the smallest leaks in R744 systems and CO2 specific applications.Whether servicing commercial refrigeration systems, finding a leak in a restaurant soda machine, or pinpointing a minute leak in a room filled with CO2 at a bulk CO2 manufacturing facility, the eL-720 stands alone when it comes to ease of use, quality of response, and high sensitivity levels with no false alarms.

Owner’s Manual
We have a few stores that we service that run CO2 as a refrigerant. We went through a few other brands of co2 hand held detectors which are all more expensive then this model, and all of them would constantly go off. It was near impossible to know what was a leak and what wasn’t.
Having used it for about 6 months now, I am confident in this product and have found multiple leaks, which have all been confirmed with bubbles. I Highly recommend this co2 detector in refrigeration applications and for its price point it can’t be beat.
