Superior AccuTrak VPE Basic Ultrasonic Leak Detector

Model: VPE BASIC

Superior AccuTrak VPE Basic Ultrasonic Leak Detector

Model: VPE BASIC

This ultrasonic leak detector is versatile for HVAC/R and automotive projects. It detects multiple signal types such as air, vacuum, and refrigerants, emitting a low frequency for auditory detection and featuring a 10-element bar graph for visual indication. The kit includes headphones, a 9V battery, and a durable hard case.

Superior Signal VPE BASIC Offers

The Superior AccuTrak VPE Basic Kit is a non-invasive cost-effective ultrasonic leak detector that can detect both pressure and vacuum leaks of any gas. The VPE Basic Kit leak detector is ideal for easily and effectively pinpointing leaks in air conditioning, refrigeration, automotive, and other systems. Ultrasonic Leak detectors are extremely sensitive to the ultrasonic sound of a turbulent gas leak. Superior ultrasonic leak detectors use a technology called heterodyning which translates ultrasound to a lower frequency that your ears can interpret.

The Accutrak Basic Kit Ultrasonic Leak Detector maintains the original sound characteristics of the ultrasound making it possible to distinguish leaks from other competing background sounds. The Accutrak instruments are so sensitive you can actually hear the blink of an eye, yet most background noise will not interfere with detection accuracy. The Superior VPE Basic Kit Ultrasonic leak detector includes headset and a carrying case. Listed below are the AccuTrak VPE Ultrasonic Leak Detector kits available and what is included in each one.

OverviewThe VPE Basic Kit Kit detects ultrasound not refrigerant, or the presence of a specific gas. Any turbulent gas will generate ultrasound when it leaks, therefore it does not matter what gas you are leak testing. The Accutrak ultrasonic air leak detector will detect air, nitrogen, compressed air, new or old refrigerants, or even air as it rushes into a system. It is a listening device not a ôsniffer.

Features

  • Gas leak detection air, refrigerant, vacuum, any gas
  • Works for compressed air or nitrogen
  • Not affected by wind or high concentration of leaked gas or refrigerant
  • Capable of detecting 5 psi leak out of a 0.005 (5/1000) hole
  • Audio Output
  • Visual Output 10 element bar graph
  • Adjustable sensitivity
  • Peak hold display
  • Over range audio alarm
  • 20% greater sensitivity
  • Improved battery life
  • Rugged design
  • Able to detect a 5 psi leak seeping out of a 0.005" hole up to 20 to 30 feet away
  • Is able to detect any type of gas generating ultrasonic sound including vacuum
  • Detects refrigerant leaks equivalent to 1.5 oz/year
  • Detects air and nitrogen
  • Leaked gas or refrigerant or wind does not affect the VPE Ultrasonic

Applications

  • Air, Vacuum, Refrigerants
