Ultrasonic tool ‘hears’ problems before they lead to breakdowns

28 April, 2016

Whether you are ‘looking’ for compressed air leaks, natural gas and propane leaks, vacuum leaks or refrigerant leaks the Spectroline MDE-2000NC Marksman II ultrasonic diagnostic tool converts and amplifies inaudible ultrasonic sound into audible, natural sound. The tool allows technicians to ‘hear’ even very small leaks before they potentially lead to major problems.

The Marksman II uses a three step approach to ensure accurate diagnosis:

• Step 1: The receiver converts inaudible ultrasonic sound into audible sound using heterodyne circuitry.

• Step 2: Sound Signature Technology ‘fine tunes’ the audible sound into the natural sound emitted by the leak itself.

• Step 3: The unit’s 5-LED signal intensity indicator and audible alarm then pinpoints the exact source of the problem, while an Internal Noise Control (INC) feature shuts out ambient noise sources.

The Marksman II comes complete with: an ultrasonic receiver, full-sized/heavy duty noise-canceling headphones, a hollow air probe (to isolate leak sources in cramped places), a solid contact probe (to find component wear in internal parts and motors), and an ultrasonic emitter (to locate faulty seals, gaskets and weather stripping in doors, windows, ductwork and other non-pressurised enclosures).

The whole kit is packed in a sturdy carrying case.
