Product Description
The Amprobe ULD-300 ultrasonic leak detector senses pressurized leaking gas, detects electrical arcing around switches and electrical panels, and finds failing solenoids, valves, and bearings in electrical automotive, and heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) maintenance applications. Pressurized gas leaks, electrical arcing, and failing solenoids, valves, or bearings emit ultrasonic frequencies, which the leak detector's ultrasonic sensor converts to an audible range that can be heard through the included headset. The Amprobe ULD-300 leak detector detects any pressurized gas leaks, including chlorofluorocarbon (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbon (HFCs), nitrogen (N), carbon dioxide (CO2), and steam. The presence of wind or airborne contaminants, such as refrigerants, does not affect its operation. The included parabola horn attaches to the probe to amplify the detected signal, allowing measurements to be taken at a distance and improving leak detection in noisy areas. An extension tube provides additional reach for access to remote leaks. A display panel with ten light-emitting diodes (LEDs) indicates when the sensor is close to the source of the leak. A low-battery indicator signals when the meter's batteries need to be replaced. The Amprobe ULD-300 comes with a hard plastic carrying case that helps protect the leak detector from damage during transportation and storage.

Leak detectors are used in mechanical, automotive, petrochemical, wastewater treatment, plumbing, electrical, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) applications to locate the source of a leaking gas or liquid. Simple leak detectors use dyes, pH- or chemically reactive indicators, or a foaming substance to find leaks in pipes, tubes, fittings, tanks, and cylinders. More complex leak detectors have electronic sensors that measure the concentration of leaked gas or liquid in an area to pinpoint the source of leaks, determine the type of gas present, monitor air quality, and detect electrical corona or failing valves, bearings, and solenoids.
Amprobe manufactures electrical testing equipment for commercial, industrial, and home use. The company was founded in 1948 and is headquartered in Everett, WA.
