Industrial Refrigerant & Halogen Leak Detection: MESTEK HD01 / HD01C Halogen Gas Detector Series in Malaysia

In HVAC/R commissioning, cold chain logistics servicing, industrial chiller maintenance, commercial refrigeration repairs, and electrical insulation testing across Malaysia, detecting minute halogen gas leaks is crucial for system efficiency and environmental safety. MTM Precision is proud to introduce the MESTEK HD01 and HD01C Halogen Gas Detector Series—advanced diagnostic instruments featuring high-definition color screens, flexible 270 mm universal gooseneck metal probes, and high-sensitivity diffusion sampling for pinpointing leaks of R22, R32, R134a, and related fluorinated refrigerants.

Certified under international CE and RoHS compliance standards, the MESTEK HD01 / HD01C series achieves an exceptional maximum sensitivity of 0.5 oz/year (14 g/year) with a rapid response time of less than 10 seconds.

🌟 Model Architectural Comparison: HD01 vs. HD01C

MESTEK HD01 (Standard Battery Powered): Features dual-range sensitivity (SENS-H: 50–1000 PPM / SENS-L: 500–1000 PPM), integrated ambient temperature measurement (-10°C to 60°C), buzzer alarm, analog display, and standard battery operation (~145mA current).
MESTEK HD01C (Rechargeable Flagship): Upgraded with a built-in 18650 lithium battery (2000mAh / 3.7V), USB Type-C (5V/1A) charging interface, fine 1 PPM resolution, 600 PPM default alarm threshold, and a triple alarm system (Buzzer + Analog Display + Vibration Alert).

🌟 Key Features & Advanced Auditing Capabilities

Target Halogen Refrigerant Gas Detection: Optimized for detecting widely used halogen refrigerants including R22, R32, R134a, CFCs, HCFCs, and HFCs in cooling systems.
Ultra-High Leak Sensitivity (0.5 oz/yr / 14 g/yr): Capable of pinpointing micro-leaks down to 0.5 ounces per year (14 grams per year), preventing costly refrigerant loss and system downtime.
Flexible 270 mm Universal Metal Probe: Durable bendable gooseneck probe allows technicians to easily reach into tight evaporator coils, compressor joints, service valves, and hidden piping chases.
High-Definition Color Screen Display: Clear, high-contrast LCD screen featuring intuitive analog bar indicators and digital readouts for quick visual assessment.
Fast Diffusion Sampling & 30-Second Warm-up: Features a 30-second countdown preheat phase followed by rapid diffusion sampling with a response time of less than 10 seconds.
Smart Power & Auto-Shutdown: Consumes ~140mA to 145mA operational current with an automated 10-minute auto power-off feature to maximize battery runtime during site inspections.
