Testo® 317-1 - Back pressure detector

Gas leaks from heaters can quickly become a problem, because inhaling toxic gases poses health risks or even danger to life. Carbon monoxide, for example, poses a particular danger, as it is colorless and odorless, but toxic. Carbon monoxide is formed during the incomplete combustion of carbon-containing substances (oil; gas, solid fuels, etc.). In case of gas leakage, the use of professional measurement technology is recommended. The backpressure detector testo 317-1 quickly and reliably detects escaping heating flue gases. Exhaust gas leakage in the vicinity of firing systems indicates a malfunction or blockage of the exhaust gas paths. The handy device immediately gives a visual and acoustic alarm in the event of escaping gases. Thus, no visual contact with the measuring device is necessary. The bendable sensor allows use even in confined spaces or hard-to-reach places.
