DESCRIPTION
1. INTRODUCTION
The Penny & Giles 'Micro Leak' Pitot-Static Leak Tester (PSLT) is a microprocessor-controlled system
which primarily generates pitot and static pressures in order to leak test air data equipment to ensure
leak rates are compliant with standards specified for it. The PSLT is also capable of providing
functional testing of pneumatic switches.
The PSLT (
Figure 2 ) is a robust, battery-powered, portable instrument with state-of-the-art
microprocessor control, offering the following features:
A. Leak testing of aircraft pitot and static systems.
B. Functional checking of aircraft airspeed and altitude switches.
C. Normal/Rapid Rate Control.
D. Remote reprogramming/maintenance checking utilising secure Infra-Red (IR) communications
(Manufacturer Mode only).

The PSLT is user-friendly, being simple in operation, and its built-in microcontroller enables the unit to
function with minimal Operator intervention.
The PSLT comes complete in its own carrying case which is of rugged construction and which has
space to house accessories such as the hose, spare battery packs, a battery charger (if applicable),
and the operating manual.
