1. The air conditioning or refrigeration system should
be charged with sufficient refrigerant to have a
gauge pressure of at least 50 psig/340kPa/3.4 BAR
when not in operation. At temperatures below 59°F/
15°C, leaks may not be measurable, since this
pressure may not be reached.
2. Take care not to contaminate the detector probe
tip if the part being tested is contaminated. If the
part is particularly dirty, or condensate (moisture)
