Retrotec 450 | Duct leakage tester

Contact Instrument Solutions

The Retrotec 450 series are small yet high power positive and negative duct leakage testers which can test systems to pressures beyond 5 kPa. Used with the DM32X smart test gauge with touchscreen LCD, this system is intuitive to setup and use.

With a fan weighing just 9 kg, and the full kit in its case weighing only 16 kg, this duct leakage tester is a truly portable system allowing the engineer access to test points other units will not allow.

Products are available in 110 V and 230 V versions with DM32X gauges.
