How the H-10PM Works
 The sensor in the H-10PM uses positive 
ion emission technology, commonly known 
as a heated diode. It is very sensitive to only 
halon substances (refrigerants) making this
product highly resistive to false alarming, 
while retaining superior sensitivity for pin-
pointing the most difficult to find refriger-
ant leaks.
 A pump inside the unit draws air through 
the sensor. Any presence of halogen gases 
(such as refrigerants) causes an ionized 
current to flow that sounds a speaker 
and illuminates a neon light in the probe. 
Sensitivity to pinpoint both large and small 
leaks can be controlled by setting the three 
position Leak Size switch.
