Bacharach's Tru Pointe Ultra

Bacharach's Tru Pointe Ultra is a compact ultrasonic leak detector that uses patented technology to detect leaks inair conditioning and refrigeration systems. The Tru Pointe® Ultra is the world's fi rst pocket-size electronic instrumentthat can simultaneously detect the vacuum and high pressure leaks that occur in HVAC/R systems. The Tru Pointe Ultraguides the user to a leak by quantifying the intensity of the ultrasound and converting it to a sound the user can hear easily through headphones. Tru Pointe® Ultra's operational principle is based on the detection of inaudible high frequency sounds produced by the fl ow of gases and liquids in leaks. The leak fl ow, passing through very narrow spaces (cracks, holes etc.), generates a rich ultrasonic sound spectrum which is easy to detect with the Tru Pointe® Ultra leak detector. Since the Tru Pointe® Ultra detects airborne ultrasound and is not a particular to gas chemistry it can detect all types of gases including nitrogen and refrigerants rushing in a system under vacuum. An electronic conversion process called heterodyning translates this ultrasound into true audible sound that helps the user distinguish leaks through headphones.
