Vacuum Tube Leak Detector Kit - PVLD-3000
Identifying leaking tubes within pressure apparatus.
Whether you are involved in the following, boiler maintenance vacuum test or vacuum tube leak tester equipment on heat exchangers. This kit will serve all your needs from 1/4" up to 3.0" OD tubes.
The PVLD-3000 leak detector is an ingenious yet simple piece of test
equipment used to identify leaking tubes ranging in size from 1/4"
to 3.0"OD. Service companies and boiler repair personnel depend on
the PVLD-3000 to accurately pinpoint costly leaking tubes within
tubular apparatus.
How the Vacuum Leak Detector Works
It is easier to carryout this operation with two men but if
needed it can be a one man operation.
One person will use the T-Bar with the correct seal in
tested tube at one end of the boiler while the operator
with the PVLD-3000 presses the rubber coated nozzle into
the same tube. He then slides the slide valve to the
vacuum position, air passes through a venturi system
which causes a vacuum to form within the tube. If the
vacuum gauge remains steady then no leaks are apparent
on that tube. Any leaks would mean a falling guage.
