VPE Ultrasonic Leak Detector 

Applications:

  • Leak Detection: Air, Vacuum, Refrigerants; ANY GAS!
  • Steam Traps: Detect live steam loss in seconds!
  • Valves: Detect/hear internal leakage in check, ball, needle, gate or any type of valve! Diagnose thermal expansion valves in just five minutes!
  • Bearing Wear: Hear wear and lubrication problems before damage is done!

Features:

Capabilities:
  • Audio Output: 0 Hz to 4 kHz natural sound conversion allows you to hear the leak and distinguish leaks from mechanical or other background ultrasound.
  • Visual Output: 10 element bar graph provides quick and intuitive visual indication to presence of and relative strength of ultrasound.
  • Adjustable Sensitivity: Allows operator to quickly identify leaks from a distance, and then zero in on the exact location of the leak.
  • Capable of detecting a 5 psi leak out of a 0.005" (5/1000 inch) hole, 20 to 30 feet away depending on background noise.
  • Easily detects any gas that generates ultrasonic sound during flow – including vacuum leaks.
  • Capable of detecting leaks equivalent to 1.5 oz/year of refrigerant.
  • Works equally well for compressed air or nitrogen.
  • Not affected by wind or high concentrations of leaked gas or refrigerant.
