Leak Detection Dye

Leak detection dyes are a type of dye that is used to identify and locate leaks in various systems and equipment. These dyes are typically added to the system or equipment being tested, such as refrigeration systems, hydraulic systems, or plumbing systems.

The dyes are designed to be highly visible and easily detectable, often fluorescing under ultraviolet (UV) light. When a leak occurs, the dye will escape along with the leaking fluid, allowing technicians to visually identify the source of the leak. This can be especially useful in situations where leaks are difficult to locate or access.

Leak detection dyes are commonly used in industries such as automotive, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), and plumbing. They are available in various forms, including liquid dyes, dye tablets, and dye cartridges, depending on the specific application and system requirements.

It is important to note that leak detection dyes should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines. Proper handling and disposal of the dyes are necessary to ensure the safety of both the technicians and the environment.
