I have borrowed the handheld leak testers that beep and never had much luck, especially with very small leaks. At a Peterbilt dealership that I had worked at, I had a lot of success with their nitrogen tank/regulator setup and soapy water, listening for the hissing, etc. Now I work for myself and do occasional AC work. To save money, I wondered if I could use the MIG shielding gas tanks(I have both stainless and ferrous blend) to purge, by just buying the high pressure regulator, which does fit both tanks, MIG and N (CGA 580) outlets. I own the MIG tanks already.
Your ferrous blend is an Argon/CO2 mix and cheaper than your stainless mix Argon/CO2/O2. Your CG 580 is just an inert regulator and will work on the above mixed gasses and nitrogen cylinders. Both will work the same as the nitrogen.
