Matheson Gas Products Model 8066 Leak Hunter Plus
Used, removed from service, powers up, looks nice
The Matheson Model 8066 is a truly universal leak detector. Extensive R&D efforts have resulted in a multi-functional leak detector specially engineered to perform superbly in both portable and benchtop applications. It is designed to both locate and measure a wide variety of gas leaks quickly, precisely and cleanly.
The LeakHunter PlusTM is so universal that it replaces three previous Matheson models by combining the best features of the Model 8065 Leak Hunter, the Model 8067 Quantitative Leak Detector and the Model 8017 Benchtop Leak Detector. Moreover, its advanced electronic design improves upon these products by producing more sensitive, more stable and more accurate readings.
As a portable detector, the 8066 offers the convenience and flexibility of either one or two handed operation. The probe easily attaches to the body of the instrument giving you a free hand. Or, simply detach the flex-and-stay probe to gain access to even the most difficult to reach places. Even pinpoint leaks in areas where several connections are grouped together. The flex-and-stay probe allows you to bend the probe to sniff around obstacles. An extension flex-and-stay probe is also included to extend your reach. The rechargeable NiCad batteries (included with charger) provide four hours of portable operation.
As a benchtop detector, the 8066 s detachable probe allows you to position the body of the unit on the bench and perform leak detection procedures with just the probe in hand. The body s noslip feet and a built-in incline stand make for a stable setup and easy viewing. The 8066 s power adapter enables continuous AC operation; there s no need to periodically recharge the batteries
The LeakHunter PlusTM can be used to simply locate leaks so they can be corrected, or it can be used to also measure how big they are. The following features make it an excellent quantitative leak detector:
* Calibration data for thirteen gases is stored in memory. At thetouch of a button, the appropriate calibration data is selected depending upon the target gas to be detected.
* Leak rates are displayed in a large LCD readout. The user easily switches between units of cc/sec, cc/min, ft3/min or ppm.
* A peak hold function records and displays the maximum leak rate encountered as the probe passes through the suspect leak area.
* Built-in autoranging automatically adjusts the instrument s sensitivity to the leak rate.
The 8066 is highly sensitive and able to locate leaks too small to bubble with a soap solution. And as the detector cell is located in the probe itself, it exhibits excellent response and recovery times. Great attention has also been paid to ergonomics and durability, and the 8066 s controls have been kept simple so it can be operated with little or no training.
