The SF6 Leak Detector is a high-sensitivity gas detection instrument designed for SF6 gas leakage detection in high voltage electrical equipment such as GIS, circuit breakers and gas insulated switchgear.
With a detection sensitivity of up to 0.01 ppm, the instrument can quickly detect micro leaks and help engineers locate leakage points accurately.
The device is widely used by:
✔ Ultra-high sensitivity up to 0.01 ppm
Detect extremely small SF6 leaks in GIS and switchgear equipment.
✔ Fast response
Quickly identify leakage points during maintenance.
✔ Portable design
Lightweight and easy to operate in substations and industrial environments.
✔ Accurate quantitative detection
Suitable for precision leak detection in high voltage equipment.
✔ Stable performance
Reliable operation in industrial environments.
✔ User friendly operation
Designed for engineers and field technicians.
Gas insulated switchgear (GIS) uses SF6 gas as insulation medium. Even very small leakage may affect equipment reliability.
The SF6 leak detector allows engineers to quickly locate leakage points during maintenance.
Switchgear manufacturers use SF6 leak detectors during production quality testing to ensure gas tightness.
Power utilities use portable leak detectors during routine inspection of GIS and circuit breakers.
As the drafter of GB/T11023-2018 national standard, this detector ensures industrial-grade reliability for cost-effective, low-maintenance SF6 leak testing in electrical equipment. Ideal for utilities, manufacturing, and energy sectors.
