KANE-EGD Combustible Gas Leak Detector
The KANE-EGD Combustible Gas Leak Detector is designed to locate leaks from a wide range of combustible gases, including hydrogen, methane, propane and natural gas.
It detects hydrogen from 20 ppm and methane and propane from 50 ppm, using a solid-state semiconductor sensor. A flexible gooseneck probe helps reach confined or difficult areas, while audible and visual indicators provide clear feedback as a leak is located.
The KANE-EGD is a gas leak detector rather than a gas concentration meter, so it is designed to locate leaks rather than provide a measured gas level.

Why Choose the KANE-EGD?
The KANE-EGD combines fast response with straightforward visual and audible leak indication. The variable audible tic rate and multi-coloured LEDs help identify the presence of combustible gas, while the tip light and 430 mm flexible probe support testing in harder-to-access areas.
With a warm-up time of 20 seconds and response time of less than one second, the detector is suitable for rapid leak detection across a broad range of combustible gases.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the KANE-EGD used for?
A. It is designed to detect combustible gas leaks from gases including hydrogen, methane, propane and natural gas.
Q2: Does it measure gas concentration?
A. No. The KANE datasheet specifically states that the leak detector does not measure gas levels.
Q3: How quickly does it respond?
A. The detector has a 20-second warm-up time and a response time of less than one second.
Q4: How does it indicate a gas leak?
A. It uses a variable audible tic rate and multi-coloured LED indicators.
Q5: How long is the probe?
A. The flexible probe is 430 mm long, allowing access to harder-to-reach testing locations.
Q6: What batteries does it use?
A. It operates from 2 x AA alkaline batteries, with more than 12 hours of typical battery life.
