This ultrasonic leak detector with a gooseneck attachment is perfect for detecting leaks in hard-to-reach places, especially in automotive applications. It is highly sensitive to ultrasonic sounds and effectively picks up air, vacuum, refrigerants, and gases, minimizing interference from background noise.

The Superior AccuTrak VPE GN is a non-invasive cost-effective ultrasonic leak detector with a flexible gooseneck probe that can detect both pressure and vacuum leaks of any gas. The VPE GN leak detector is ideal for easily and effectively pinpointing leaks in air conditioning, refrigeration, automotive, and other systems. Ultrasonic Leak detectors are extremely sensitive to the ultrasonic sound of a turbulent gas leak. The Superior VPE-GN Standard is the basic ultrasonic leak detector kit and includes a headset and a carrying case.
The VPE-GN Kit detects ultrasound, not refrigerant, or the presence of a specific gas. Any turbulent gas will generate ultrasound when it leaks, therefore it does not matter what gas you are leak testing. The Accutrak ultrasonic air leak detector will detect air, nitrogen, compressed air, new or old refrigerants, or even air as it rushes into a system.
Therefore, the AccuTrack VPE-GN can function in areas of heavy wind or concentrations of fumes from leaks which would make other detectors inoperable. It is also more accurate than other types of detectors for detecting larger leaks because its sensor will not become saturated or give false alarms from the presence of gas in the atmosphere. Superior ultrasonic leak detectors use a technology called heterodyning, which translates ultrasound to a lower frequency that your ears can interpret.
