Resumen del manual


Isolate the leak area by reducing the sensitivity of the unit and by pushing the tip of the rubber focusing probe up to the test area, checking a small section at a time. In some extreme instances, when the leak check is difficult at 40 kHz, try to "tune in" to the leak sound by "tuning out" the problem sound. In this instance adjust the frequency until the background sound is minimized and then proceed to listen for the leak. 17 1. SHIELDING TECHNIQUES Since ultrasound is a high frequency, short wave signal, it can usually be blocked or "shielded". NOTE: When using any method, be sure to follow your plant's or company's safety guidelines. Some common techniques are: a. Body: place your body between the test area and the competing sounds to act as a barrier b. Clip Board: Position the clip board close to the leak area and angle it so that it acts as a barrier between the test area and the competing sounds c. Gloved Hand: (USE CAUTION) using a gloved hand, wrap the hand around the rubber focusing probe tip so that the index finger and the thumb are close to the very end and place the rest of the hand on the test site so that there is a complete barrier of the hand between the test area and the background noise. Move the hand and instrument together over the various test zones. d. Wipe rag: This is the same method as the "gloved hand" method, only, in addition to the glove, use a wipe rag to wrap around the rubber focusing probe tip. Hold the rag in the gloved hand so that it acts as a "curtain", i.e., there is enough material to cover the test site without blocking the open end of the rubber focusing probe. This is ususally the most effective method since it uses three barriers: the rubber focusing probe, the gloved hand and the rag. e. Barrier: When covering a large area, it is sometimes helpful to use some reflective material, such as a welders curtain or a drop cloth, to act as a barrier. Place the material so that it acts as a "wall" between the test area and the competing sounds. Sometimes the barrier is draped from ceiling to floor, at other times, it is hung over railings. f. Frequency Tuning: If there are situations where a signal may be difficult to isolate, it may be helpful to utilize the Frequency Tuning. Point the Ultraprobe toward the test area and gradually adjust the frequency until the weak signal appears to be clearer and then follow the basic detection methods previously outlined. 2. LOW LEVEL LEAKS In ultrasonic inspection for leakage, the amplitude of the sound often depends upon the amount of turbulence generated at the leak site. The greater the turbulence, the louder the signal, the less the turbulence, the lower the intensity of the signal. When a leak rate is so low that it produces little, if any turbulence that is "detectable", it is considered "below threshold". If a leak appears to be of this nature: 1 . Build up the pressure (if possible) to create greater turbulence. 2.Utilize LIQUID LEAK AMPLIFIER. This patented method incorporates a UE Systems product called LIQUID LEAK AMPLIFIER, or LLA for short. LLA is a uniquely formulated liquid substance that has special chemical properties. Used as an ultra sonic "bubble test, a small amount of LLA is applied to a suspected leak site, It produces a thin film through which the escaping gas will pass. When it comes in contact with a low flow of gas, it quickly forms a large number of small "soda-like" bubbles that burst as soon as they form. This bursting effect produces an ultrasonic shock wave that is heard as a crackling sound in the headphones. In many instances the bubbles will not be seen, but they will be heard. This method is capable of obtaining successful leak checks in systems with leaks as low as lxl0-6 ml/sec. NOTE: The low surface tension of the LLA is the reason small bubbles form. This can be negatively changed by contamination of the leak site with another leak fluid which can block LLA or cause large bubbles to form. If contaminated, clean the leak site with water, solvent or alcohol (check with plant regulations before selecting a decontaminating cleaning agent). 3. Use the UE-CFM-9 Close Focus Module. Specifically designed for low level leaks, the unique scanning chamber is designed to receive low level signals with reduced signal distortion and provides easier recognition of a low level leak. For more information, call the factory. D. TONE TEST (Ultratone) The Tone Test is an ultrasonic method for non-destructive testing which is used when it is difficult to pressurize or draw a vacuum in a system. This ultrasonic test is applicable to a wide range of items, including: CONTAINERS, TUBES, PIPES, HEAT EXCHANGERS, WELDS, GASKETS, SEALS, DOORS, WINDOWS, OR HATCHES. 18 The test is conducted by placing an ultrasonic transmitter, called TONE GENERATOR, inside (or on one side) of the test item. The warble pulse-signal from the TONE GENERATOR will instantly "flood" the test item and penetrate any existing leak hole. Dependin...
