6

the direction of the leak will cause the LEDs to drop below the Peak Hold level. 
Moving closer to the leak will cause Peak value to reset. The highest Peak value 
will indicate the strongest leak point.

5. 

To adjust the volume, press the MODE button once. The alphanumeric display 
reads “VOL”.  Then use the 

 and 

 buttons to make the adjustment.  The alpha-

numeric display will display the current setting as V###.  The volume reading has 
a range of 0 to 255.

6. 

Listen for the leak.  A gas or air leak will sound like a harsh rushing noise, or high 
intensity hiss.  This sound will increase as the instrument is drawn toward the leak 
point, and will clearly disappear as the sensor is turned away.

Touch Probe Applications

Use the touch probe to detect internally generated ultrasound such as leaks in steam traps, 
valves, and sounds from bearings.

WARNING!

  To ensure a good contact and accurate 

readings the touch probe has a sharp tip.  Be careful not 
to injure yourself or others.

1. 

Insert the metal Touch Probe into the port on the nose of the Tru Pointe

®

 2100.  

The Tru Pointe

®

 2100 Touch Probe should be snug but do not overtighten.  De-

press the mode select button until the display reads “PrbH”, “PrbL”, or PrbS” and 
press the “

”or “

” to activate the touch probe selection.

2. Making 

fi

 rm contact, touch the tip of the probe to the item being tested.  Apply 

just enough pressure to make good contact.  A clear translation of the internally 
generated ultrasonic sound will be heard.

3. Listen 

for 

fl

 uid leaks in valves, continuous 

fl

 ow or non-cycling in steam traps, and 

knocking or scraping in bearings.  

4. The 

Tru 

Pointe

®

 2100 always defaults back to Sensitivity as the active mode, 

therefore if readings are off the scale simply press the “

” to reduce the reading 

to within the range of the instrument.  The alphanumeric display will display the 
active sensor and current sensitivity setting before it begins to make the adjust-
ments.

NOTE:

  When testing bearings or machinery vibration, 

record your sensitivity setting, and use the reading 
on the Alphanumeric display as a baseline for future 
readings.
