    The sound from the Ultrasonic Leak detector will remain the same. It is the intensity of the sound which changes. This is shown by the LED intensity indicator which allows you to zero in on the location of the leak.

    Does it works with Helium Leaks ?

    Yes, it will work with helium leaks. It will function with any pressurized gas.

    Does it work for detection of hydraulic leakage? Secondly suppose if there is flow through nozzle and in the same vicinity there is a leakage as well, will it detect the leakage in that area?

    Thank you for the excellent question. It has been used by rebuilders of hydraulic cylinders when they are testing the freshly rebuilt cylinder with compressed air before filling it with hydraulic oil. On a hydraulic system you would generally see the fluid at the point of the leak. It may help to find the leak in a dirty system as long as you can get close to the hose and fittings. If there was a pneumatic nozzle that had a lead on the air inlet, you could use the isolating tube attachment to separate the two sounds and determine if the leak is on the air inlet or if the noise is from the nozzle discharge.

    is it possible to detect a leak behind a wall or in airways inside of a block (of plastic for example)

    Pete, It is possible to use the Ultrasonic Leak Detector to find large leaks that are close to a barrier such as, drywall or plywood. This means you will not be able to determine if there are extremely low flowing leaks, they will need to be more substantial. The best operation for the Ultrasonic Leak Detector will be on exposed pipes. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact us. 1-800-903-9247

    hey just want to find out if this device can detect a vacuum leak and if it can how to do so thanks

    Steven,The Ultrasonic Leak Detector can be used to detect vacuum leaks. The process is the same as when testing for a pressure leak. If there is a leak then it is going to still give an ultrasonic sound due to the air passing through an orifice. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact an Application Engineer at 1-800-903-9247.

    Hell Sandro! If you wanted to use the Ultrasonic Leak Detector to scan the system before it was encased in concrete or other material then it would have a good chance. Once it is encased in in the floor the ULD will not be able to sense the ultrasonic sound. If you would like to discuss further, please let us know at Techelp@EXAIR.com Thanks for the question!

    Can it be used for the underground water leak detection?

  • @exaircorporation

    @exaircorporation

    @Jeremy, the Ultrasonic Leak Detector would not be able to sense through the ground. There are other types of tests and detectors used for underground water leaks. This detector would be a line of sight type meter. If you have other applications please feel free to reach out to us through e mail, phone, or chat. 1-800-903-9247 Techelp@EXAIR.com www.EXAIR.com

    is it possible to detect a bearing failure?

  • @exaircorporation

    Victor, Sorry for the delay in our response. The Ultrasonic Lead Detector can actually be used to listen for mechanical vibrations that lead to bearing failures. For this application we would generally use the tube attachment and pinpoint the bearings in question. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact an Application Engineer at 1-800-903-9247.

    You need an SPM meter or a vibration meter with historic analysis, meaning in order to detect a failure you need a graph over the life of the bearing.

    This could also be achieved with the ULD if you were to take baseline measurements when the product was new. While the ULD is not built specifically for bearing maintenance, it is similar to a mechanical stethoscope where you will be able to hear chattering and the vibrations that can generally be isolated to the bearing housings on the part.

    I'm about to do an air audit at a job site, so what is the advantages of this over a bunch of Dawn dish soap and water? I see this as pointless and a complete waste of the customers money and time, so please sell me. Thank You!

    Jason, Thanks for the comment. The main benefit of utilizing an Ultrasonic Leak Detector over a soap and water mixture is the ability to conduct the leak assessment without contacting the pipes. This means you are not introducing any moisture or chemicals to the piping system which can cause corrosion on piping. There is also the scenario where you may not be able to see all the way around the pipe in order to check for bubbles from a leak. This is where the tube attachment will be able to bend and reach into those places where you can't see to help find hard to reach leaks. The Ultrasonic Leak Detectors can also be used at a distance. Not every fitting or joint has to be checked 360° with a tube attachment. The parabolic dish will permit you to quickly scan the piping and areas of joints or fittings to find the leaks. This will save time when conducting a complete system inspection where you would have to spray down each joint, fitting, and even pipe for that matter. If you would like to discuss the ULD further, or would like to get one into your own hands and give it a test, please contact an Application Engineer at 1-800-903-9247 or Techelp@EXAIR.com .

    As long as there is pressure on the valve from the compressed air then the Ultrasonic Leak Detector should help find if there is a leak or not. When going around valves and fittings it is best to use the tube adaptor in order to isolate the noise to a smaller area.
