Ultra-Powerful UV Flashlight Slashes Leak Detection Time!
Westbury, New York - Spectronics Corporation has unveiled its new OPTIMAX(TM) - the world's most powerful, portable UV leak detector. The OPTIMAX makes it easier than ever for technicians to pinpoint all refrigerant leaks - even those elusive leaks that are missed by other lamps and by other methods of leak detection. And there are no cords that can become snagged on components of AC&R systems.
The OPTIMAX uses breakthrough super-hi-flux LED technology to deliver 10 times brighter UV light than regular LED lights. Its power is equal to that of 100-watt lamps that must be plugged into an AC power source. The lamp is powered by a rechargeable NiMH battery that provides more than six hours of operation between charges.
The OPTIMAX makes all manufacturers' fluorescent dyes glow much brighter, so a technician does not have to waste time trying to match a dye to the right lamp for best results. The OPTIMAX has an inspection range of 20 feet (6 m) or more.
