The short and sweet I have two Inficon testers will have to look for the model # TEK-Mate sounds like it and a Yokagawa H10, all are heated diode technology. All have their own personality. One Inficon is super sensitive once I am in the neighborhood of the leak I pull out the other Inficon to narrow it down. If I am sure there is a leak and neither Inficon will find the leak out comes the Yokogawa.
Why not use the Yokogawa al the time, when you dial it in supper sensitive it shortens the heated diode's life : (. Why two Inficon tester, I liked it so much I kept a look out for another on cracklist and scored it for $25. Like I said they are not identical and I like that.
DYE, I have used it since the late 80's it takes time its more of an excuse to kick the can down the road and that's how most do it. Leak check I can do a fast check and sometimes find it if the leak is large enoufh. I recommenced you leave it with me let me get armed with a battle plan and test it first thing in the morning before I open the shop doors. I would say i have a 99% success rate that way.
Before 1234f the top guns used the Inficon, it was cheap and reliable. When someone jumps on the Dye train I doubt they have a good leak detector are take the time to find the leak. With a good detector its rare i use dye anymore.

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
