Universal Leak Detector Nuair IMPAX IMX120

Nuair IMPAX IMX120 is a compact universal leak detector engineered to locate gas and air leaks in pipes, fittings and pneumatic systems. The handheld instrument combines visual and audible indications to help technicians trace even small leaks quickly. Designed for workshop and field use, it supports routine maintenance and troubleshooting of compressed air systems and gas installations where fast, accurate leak detection reduces energy loss and downtime.

Advantages

The device provides simultaneous visual and acoustic feedback for precise leak location, with a compact ergonomic housing that is easy to handle during inspections. Its sensitivity to low flow leaks makes it suitable for both coarse and fine leak tracing. Battery-powered operation ensures portability for field service, while simple controls allow rapid adaptation by maintenance staff without extensive training.

Suitable for

• Inspection of compressed air distribution systems in workshops and factories
• Detection of leaks in gas pipelines and fittings
• Maintenance and troubleshooting of pneumatic equipment and actuators
• Field service checks of valves, joints and quick couplings

Key specifications

• Handheld, compact footprint for single-handed operation
• Dual indication: visual signal and audible alarm for leak presence and intensity
• Sensitivity suitable for detection of small leaks in compressed air and gas systems
• Battery-powered for portable field use
• Simple user interface for rapid deployment during inspections

How to use

Switch on the unit and allow any warm-up or self-check sequence to complete before testing. Move the probe slowly along pipes, fittings and connection points while observing the visual indicator and listening for the audible signal. Pause at locations where the indicator rises or the sound intensifies to inspect connections more closely and determine the exact leak point. Adjust probe distance and scanning speed to differentiate between background noise and genuine leaks. After use, switch the detector off and store it in a dry place; replace batteries according to the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Usage recommendations

Perform inspections when the system is pressurized and representative of normal operating conditions. For highest accuracy, clean accessible surfaces before scanning and keep the probe at a consistent distance from the inspected area. Use hearing protection as appropriate in noisy environments and follow safety rules for work near gas installations.
