CTRL Systems designs and delivers the
best ultrasound detectors in the world, but
we’re more than just an innovative tool
manufacturer. We are the ultrasound
experts, and we want to help your team
build and sustain a world-class ultrasound
program, specific to your organization’s
needs.
The CTRL UL101 Basic Kit includes attachments for airborne ultrasound applications including leak detection (any type of gas), vacuum leak detection, electrical inspection, and steam leak detection. Additionally, the kit includes a single 3-inch solid probe for diagnosing steam traps and valves by detecting internal by-pass leaks
Simply adjust the sensitivity on the UL101 Leak Detector’s handheld receiver to pinpoint the leak; scan areas from up to 300 feet away with the PowerBeam 300 parabolic accessory.
Our UL101 Leak Detectors can find leaks faster and more accurately. Your systems can now run at normal and even improved vacuum levels to improve power turbine efficiency.
Ultrasound travels in linear paths and doesn’t tend to travel around corners or reflect. Using CTRL’s acoustic ultrasound listening products, leaks are not easily masked.
The cost of a high end ultrasound detector is 3 to 5 times less than the cost of a helium leak detection system. CTRL’s UL101 products are priced competitively compared to industry leaders, require less training, and are faster to use.
Acoustic ultrasound is used for indication and location, not leak measurement. Our leak detectors are ruggedized for use in the most caustic of environments, including power plants
Fixed Frequency
Easily adjustable sensitivity and gain
Lightweight, one-handed operation
High Sensitivity to all turbulent flow air, gas, or vacuum leaks
Converts ultrasound to easily recognizable audible sounds
Standard 9-Volt Battery means no waiting to recharge
Acoustic ultrasound is used for indication and location, not leak measurement. Our leak detectors are ruggedized for use in the most caustic of environments, including power plants.
Airborne ultrasound can be used to detect various electrical faults; including corona discharge, tracking, and arcing.
Effective use of the UL101 for ultrasound detection on valves can reduce and even eliminate unnecessary overhaul costs, resources, and time.
Using ultrasound detectors for leak detection is a growing industry standard. Acoustic ultrasound leak detection is recommended by many, such as the U.S. Department of Energy, as the best method for detecting the location of leaks in order to minimize energy waste and improve plant efficiency.
The CTRL UL101 Leak Detector converts the ultrasound (40 kHz +/- 1 kHz) down into the audible range and outputs to a headset. All other frequencies are filtered, so that even the smallest air/gas, vacuum, or refrigerant leak can be detected and pinpointed in a noisy plant environment.
