Description
AccuTrak VPE-1000 Ultrasonic Leak Detector
When powerful performance is needed and budgets are limited, choose the versatile Superior AccuTrak VPE-1000 Ultrasonic Leak Detector. It is the first low cost digital ultrasonic leak detector, offering extraordinary features at a fraction of the cost of other ultrasonic instruments. The versatile AccuTrak VPE-1000 features separate ultra-sensitive sensors for both airborne and contact ultrasound. Extremely sensitive to the ultrasonic sound of leaks and friction in industrial systems, the VPE-1000 Ultrasonic Leak Detector uses a technique called "heterodyning" to translate ultrasound to a lower frequency which our ears can interpret. AccuTrak® Ultrasonic Leak Detectors are so sensitive they can hear the blink of an eye, yet most background noise will not interfere with leak detection accuracy. Patented technology uses a microcomputer and digital circuitry making the AccuTrak VPE-1000 the most accurate and repeatable ultrasonic leak detector available in its class.
Applications & Features:
- Leak Detection: Air, Refrigerant, Vacuum, 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!
- Bearings: Hear wear and lubrication problems before damage is done!
- Electric Arc and Corona: Inspect circuit breakers, relays, and buss bars! Check for corrosion on contacts and proper insulation!
- Pneumatics and Hydraulics: Inspect controls, hoses, tools, fittings and internal cylinders with ease!
- Vibration: Detect the ultrasonic sound generated by excessive friction!
- Fan Belts You may be familiar with the sound of a loose fan belt in a car. Early warning of such wear is indicated by a similar sound in the ultrasonic range.
- Digital LED Indicators: Both alphanumeric and bar-graph!
- Digital Peak Hold: Holds highest level for easy readability!
- Separate Volume/Sensitivity: Independent controls allow you to "zoom" into sounds in noisy areas!
- Dual Sensors: Each with excellent frequency response, and independent settings
