Denso HLD-100 Halogen Leak Detector

A new tool is required to accurately detect A/C refrigerant leaks in all Honda vehicles. The Denso HLD-100 Halogen Leak Detector has the following features:

- Works with both R-12 and R-134a systems.
- Impact resistant polyethylene case.
- Auto balance adjustment; eliminates false alarms by adjusting for background gases in the air.
- A calibration reference vial provides a leak signal to check the unit's accuracy.
- Has a flexible probe extension; finds leaks in hard to reach places.
- Small and portable; the battery, cables, and flexible probe extension probe can be transported together as a unit.

NOTE: Yokogawa H-10P, H-10N, and Kent Moore # J39400 are equivalent to the HLD-100.
