Sentac Strix

HYDROGEN LEAK DETECTOR

The Sentrac Strix Edition Hydrogen Leak Detector is designed for industrial production and maintenance leak detection applications. Based on the Sentrac Hydrogen Leak Detector, Sentrac Strix Edition brings the benefits of its predecessor to a higher level thanks to the all-new hand probe and sensor: Strix. The highly sensitive and selective Strix hydrogen sensor ensures quicker reaction and recovery times to find anything from small to large leaks without delay. Long sensor lifetime and its resilience to high background levels of gas minimize the risk for operator errors and for missing small leaks.

The Strix hand probe is light and robust, for maximum operator ergonomics. Thanks to its small probe tip, easy access is possible even on test components with complicated geometries. The hand probe has a multi-function button as well as a clear display providing leak detection information and facilitating use for the operator.

For added flexibility, the Sentrac Strix Edition Hydrogen Leak Detector is available both as desktop and battery operated models.
