'''Ultrasonic Leak Detector''' is an instrument which detects ultrasonic energy resulting from the transition from laminar to turbulent flow of a gas passing through an orifice. A device that can locate ultrasonic sounds that are emitted when a gas leaks from various parts of a system. | |||
==Features== | |||
* Senses pressurized leaks, detects electrical arcing, and finds failing solenoids, valves, and bearings | |||
* Ultrasonic sensor converts ultrasonic frequencies to an audible range so they can be heard | |||
* Detects any pressurized leaking gas, including chlorofluorocarbon (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbon (HFCs), nitrogen (N), carbon dioxide (CO2), and steam | |||
* Parabola horn aids leak detection from a distance and in noisy areas | |||
* Extension tube provides additional reach for access to remote leaks |
