Testo 513 Gas Leak Detector

Testo 513 Gas Leak Detector

The Testo 513 Gas Leak Detector is designed to help technicians quickly find leaks of flammable gases in both residential and industrial systems. It can detect methane, propane, butane, and hydrogen, making it suitable for use on gas boilers and similar installations.

With a sensitivity of 3 g/a and a response time of less than 2 seconds, the testo 513 helps users identify leak sources quickly and efficiently. The built-in pinpoint mode is particularly useful when trying to narrow down the exact location of a leak, especially once you've already identified the general area.

One of its practical features is the flexible yet robust gooseneck probe, which makes it easier to reach around pipework, fittings, connections, and other awkward areas that are often difficult to access. The detector also offers a choice between numeric and bar graph display modes, so users can view leak levels in whichever format they find easier to interpret.

Automatic zeroing allows the testo 513 to adapt to changing ambient conditions, helping improve the accuracy of leak localisation. There's also a manual zeroing function available for situations where more specific adjustment is needed, which gives the user a bit more control during certain measurements.

The detector features a user-replaceable sensor, helping reduce downtime and can lower long-term operating costs, since the entire instrument doesn't need to be replaced when the sensor reaches the end of its service life.
