COMPRESSED AIR LOSS GUESS-TIMATOR V 3.0

Procedure for using the UE SYSTEMS INC. ULTRAPROBE® 2000 to locate and roughly measure air leakage in compressed air systems.

Use the scanning module to conduct the broad scanning to pinpoint the air leaks. The scanning module with rubber focusing probe is used to determine the air losses. The tip of the rubber focusing probe on the Ultraprobe 2000 should be held 12 - 15" from the point of leakage. The sensitivity dial is used to increase or decrease sensitivity until the meter is at 50% of scale.

Factors such as turbulence, leak orifice configuration, pressure, moisture and instrument sensitivity can significantly effect your results.

For information on measurement of total compressed air system loss contact your local compressed air vendor or contact UE Service Partners to have a compressed air specialist provide this service for you.
