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.

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
a
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.
