Today I will be reviewing the Vortex AC Refrigerant Recovery Machine by Inficon. Recovery machines are essential tools that every HVAC technician needs and already has in their tool chest. This recovery machine features an industry leading 3 year replacement warranty and is proudly made in the USA. The 714-202-G1 Vortex clocks in at 27lbs and has a textured reflective handle that stays cooler when in direct sunlight.

Part of having a safe working environment is making sure you are not in the presence of Combustible Gases that could be an explosion hazard. The Inficon Gas-Mate Combustible Gas Leak Detector is tuned to Methane but can be used to detect many other gases such as Natural Gas, Ethanol, Ammonia, Propane and Butane.

Today I will be discussing the Inficon CO Check Carbon Monoxide Meter. Everyone knows the dangers of CO poisoning and that it does not take much exposure to start feeling the effects. Carrying around a easy to use handheld monitor is a great step to assuring your safety.

Refrigerant leak detection is a technology that is always improving. Sensitivities are constantly improving as well as the life expectancy of sensors. Inficon remains a leader in this regard as their new Inficon D-TEK Select 712-202-G1 Refrigerant Leak Detector is outstanding. The sensitivity on this unit is very low at 0.10 oz/yr(3 gm/yr). This allows you to find just about any leak a system might have.

CO₂ is beginning to see use as a refrigerant (R744) and Inficon has designed a leak detector that is specifically designed to pick up this specific gas.

Hello refrigeration enthusiasts! Today’s post is going to take a look at a mid-level leak detector from Inficon that provides a great balance of features that bridges the gap between the budget and deluxe models – the Inficon Compass Refrigerant Leak Detector 717-202-G1. This unit is an upgrade from the TEK-Mate unit I reviewed previously and uses some similar technology but also offers upgraded features.

Greetings. Today we’ll have a look at a relatively simple product that fits any budget and does a solid job – the Inficon TEK-Mate Refrigerant Leak Detector 705-202-G1. For those new to this area, Inficon is a company that is famous for its leak detection technology and is at the forefront of research and development in this area.
