DR82 – Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector

Easy to see it’s more reliable.

Where to Buy

  • State-of-the-art infrared sensor
  • Massive backlit LCD screen provides clear, easy-to- see information
  • Sensitivity better than 0.03 oz/yr (1g/a)
  • Detects all HFC, CFC, HCFC, HFO  and blends
  • Flashing lighted tip, loud beeper and leak rate indicator
  • Doesn’t trigger on soap bubbles and oil
  • A2L Compatible

The highest possible sensitivity.
If you want to find leaks faster for your customers, try the Fieldpiece DR82 Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector. Our newest detector can sniff out leaks at <0.03 oz/yr. That’s 20 times more sensitive than soap bubbles. This exceeds detection standards so you can quickly find and pinpoint leaks. DR82 triggers on all HFC, CFC, HCFC, HFO and blends.

 

Goodbye false-positives.
Unlike other detectors you’ll find on the market, the DR82 doesn’t trigger on oil or moisture. It also senses change in refrigerant levels and can work in contaminated environments. The sensors are fast-acting and last up to 10 years.

 

Easy to use, see and charge.
The DR82 is designed to easily fit in your hand and is rugged enough to handle the demands you face in the field every day. Its new, bright screen has an easy-to-read bar graphs, numeric readings and customizable dual alarms so you’ll always know exactly what you’re seeing. The DR82 also holds a charge for up to 10 hours and can be used while charging, so it can work as long as you need.

DR82 Features:

  • 10-year sensor life
  • Doesn’t trigger on soap bubbles and oil
  • Compact – designed to fit in your hand
  • Multiple alarms
  • LED lighted tip and loud beep help find leaks in noisy and dark environments
  • Sensitivity better than 0.03 oz/yr (1g/a)
  • Ruggedized and IP54-certified
  • 10-hour battery charge
  • Bright blue, back-lit LCD screen with clear numerical leak size indicator and bar graph
  • Non-conductive, sturdy probe that stays where you want it.
  • Weighs less than a pound
  • Works on A2L Refrigerants

What’s Included

  • (1) Advanced Infrared Refrigerant Leak Detector – DR82
  • (5) Replacement Filtered Tips – RFT6
  • (1) Blow-Molded Case

  • What is the difference between the DR58 and DR82?

      1. The DR58 uses a heated diode sensor. The heated diode’s advantage is that it detects absolute concentration levels so it can be held on a leak and will continue to beep. It is also initially very sensitive. Its major disadvantages are that the sensor becomes less sensitive over life, eventually needing replacement and it is more sensitive to some refrigerants than others.
      2. The DR82 uses an infrared (IR) sensor. It detects a CHANGE in concentration, so the wand must keep moving. The main advantages of the Fieldpiece IR sensor are that its sensitivity will remain the same over the life of the instrument, the sensor will last the lifetime of the instrument, it will not trigger on humidity or on oil, and it has nearly the same sensitivity to most refrigerants. The main disadvantage of infrared sensors is their sensitivity to mechanical disturbances.
  • Why won’t it stay on / why won’t it charge?

    • If no sensor is installed or the installed sensor is broken when the unit is turned on an alarm will sound and the unit will turn off.

  • How long does the sensor last?

    • If it seems like your leak detector is no longer picking up leaks or is not as sensitive as it was when you first bought it, try replacing the filter. This should fix the issue. If this does not fix the issue try replacing the sensor

  • How do I order a new sensor?

      1. Contact your local Fieldpiece supplier and have them order part number “RHD1”
      2. Carefully insert the new sensor and replace snoot. The sensor can be inserted in two different configurations, either of which will allow the DR58 to function correctly.
  • Where is the sensor located?

    • To install or replace the sensor, make sure the unit is turned off. Then, unscrew the snoot on the DR58 and if replacing gently pull the sensor from the base.

  • Is the DR82 A2L compatible?

    • Yes. For use only by qualified and certified technicians in the safe use, handling, and transporting of refrigerants.  Please refer to flammable refrigerant safety guides, regional codes and legislation for more information.
