Mastercool 55800 Intellasense Refrigerant Leak Detector

The Mastercool 55800 Intellasense Refrigerant Leak Detector is a professional-grade tool designed for HVAC technicians who demand precision and reliability in detecting refrigerant leaks. Engineered by Mastercool, a trusted name in air conditioning tools, this detector uses advanced technology to identify leaks in a wide range of refrigerants, ensuring efficient and accurate diagnostics for air conditioning systems.

Advanced Sensor Technology

At the heart of the Mastercool 55800 is a highly sensitive tin oxide sensor that detects chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), and refrigerant blends. This metal oxide gas sensor is designed for fast response times and can identify extremely low levels of refrigerants, including R1234yf, R32, R410a, and R407C. The sensor has an impressive lifespan of approximately 2000 hours, ensuring long-term reliability for professional use.

Intelligent Microprocessor

The 55800 features a powerful microprocessor that automatically optimises sensor performance by selecting the best operating conditions. This ensures consistent accuracy throughout the sensor's life. The microprocessor also monitors environmental conditions to minimise false alarms, making it ideal for use in challenging environments where wind or other interferences may be present.

Super Sensitive Function

For detecting the smallest leaks, the Mastercool 55800 includes a "Super Sensitive Function." This mode enhances the detector's sensitivity beyond standard settings, making it perfect for locating minute leaks in refrigerants like R1234yf and R407C. This feature is particularly valuable for technicians working on modern, eco-friendly systems that require precise leak detection.

Flexible Probe and Intelligent Tip

The detector comes equipped with a 16-inch flexible probe, allowing technicians to access hard-to-reach areas in complex HVAC systems. The intelligent tip design senses environmental conditions to reduce false positives, ensuring reliable detection. The probe is also fitted with a sensor protector and replaceable filters to maintain performance and extend the sensor's life.

Progressive LCD Display

The Mastercool 55800 features a progressive LCD display that provides clear, real-time feedback. Key display features include:

• Signal Level Bars: Ten vertical bars indicate the magnitude of the detected leak, helping technicians pinpoint the source.
• Sensitivity Indicators: Displays the selected sensitivity range (High, Medium, or Low).
• Status Indicators: Shows "WAIT" during initialisation, "READY" when operational, and "INT" for interference or sensor issues.
• Battery Symbol: Alerts when the battery level is low.
• Error Signals: Diagnostic codes (E1–E9) for troubleshooting.

Sensitivity and Performance

The 55800 offers three sensitivity levels to suit different applications:

• High: Detects leaks ≥0.15 oz/yr
• Medium: Detects leaks ≥0.25 oz/yr
• Low: Detects leaks ≥0.5 oz/yr

Certified to meet SAE J2791 (R134a), J2913 (R1234yf), and EN14624 standards, this detector delivers industry-leading performance for both traditional and next-generation refrigerants.

Keypad Functionality

The intuitive keypad simplifies operation with the following functions:

• ON/OFF: Powers the unit on or off.
• VOLUME/MUTE: Adjusts or mutes the audible alert.
• H M L SENSITIVITY: Selects the desired sensitivity level.
• HOLD: Freezes the signal bars to lock the current reading.
• PEAK: Activates peak mode to detect multiple leaks.

Power and Portability

Powered by two D batteries, the Mastercool 55800 offers up to 60 hours of continuous use, making it suitable for extended fieldwork. Weighing just 1 lb. 8 oz., it is lightweight and easy to carry. The detector comes with a blow-molded plastic case for secure storage and transport, ensuring it remains protected between jobs.

Included Accessories and Replacement Parts

The 55800 is supplied with essential accessories to support ongoing maintenance:

• Blow-molded plastic box (55800-PB)
• Leak test vial (55800-VL)
• Battery cover (55800-BATCOV)
• Sensor (55800-SEN)
