Precautions
Thermocouple:
• Immere probe in fluid/gas and only read
measure after 1-2 minutes
• Note temperature range before you start
• Do not touch naked flame with the probe

by time to fill the tank
• Float method: distance ping pong ball
traveled divided by travel time

Leak Detectors
What does a leak detector do
• Detects the location of leaks
• Detects almost any leak because
•
Short distance/access not needed
•
High pressure not needed
•
Sensitive to sound
•
Filters background noises
• Does not measure the size of the leak
56

Leak Detectors
Where is a leak detector used
For measuring
• Compressed air leaks
• Refrigerant leaks
But no leak detector will find every leak!!
