Superior Signal VPE Ultrasonic Leak Detector

Applications for VPE Ultrasonic Leak Detector

Detection of Gas Leaks: Air, Refrigerant, Vacuum, ANY GAS!
Internal leakage in check, ball, needle, gate, or any other type of valve can be detected and heard!
Thermal expansion valves can be diagnosed in just five minutes!
Bearing Wear: Detect wear and lubrication issues before they cause damage!

Capabilities of the VPE Ultrasonic Leak Detector

Capable of detecting a 5 psi leak from a 0.005″ (5/1000 inch) hole from a distance of 20 to 30 feet depending on background noise.
Detects any gas that emits ultrasonic sound during flow, including vacuum leaks, with ease.
Capable of detecting leaks of up to 1.5 oz of refrigerant per year.
It works equally well with compressed air as it does with nitrogen.
Wind and high concentrations of leaking gas or refrigerant have no effect.

VPE Ultrasonic Leak Detector Specifications

Natural sound conversion from 0 Hz to 4 kHz allows you to hear the leak and distinguish it from mechanical or other background ultrasound.
Visual Output: A ten-element bar graph gives a quick and intuitive visual indication of the presence and relative strength of ultrasound.
Adjustable Sensitivity: This feature enables the operator to quickly identify leaks from a distance and then zero in on the exact location of the leak.

NEW! 3rd Generation VPE Specifications

20% More Sensitivity – Our all-new third-generation m digital circuitry is clearer and quieter than ever before, allowing you to detect smaller leaks and faults faster than ever before. The VPE already had the best sensitivity in the industry, and it just got better.
Peak Hold Display – The new Peak Hold function on the display helps you find leaks and faults faster and better, allowing you to finish the job faster and easier. This fantastic feature can be found on much more expensive instruments, but it is unique to this class of instruments.
Over Range Audio Alarm – This innovative new feature allows you to keep your eyes on what you’re measuring rather than your instrument display while still being aware that you’ve exceeded the range setting and need to adjust the sensitivity for optimum performance. Again, this makes your job easier, faster, and safer.
Increased Battery Life – up to 200 hours of operation on a single standard 9-Volt battery.
Internal components have been redesigned to make the leak detector more shock-resistant, resulting in an even more reliable design.
