The leak detector is used in various areas of industry. For example, the leak detector is used on compressed air, gas, steam and vacuum systems, as well as on refrigeration systems and door seals. The working frequency of the leak detector is 4 kHz (± 2 kHz). The soundproof headphones on the leak detector ensure that it can also be used in extremely noisy environments. The leak detector is used wherever gases can escape from leaks in piping systems. The noises caused by the outflow are often in the ultrasonic range and are therefore imperceptible to the human ear. The leak detector picks up this ultrasound via the sonic funnel and converts the inaudible ultrasound into audible frequencies. The laser pointer built into the leak detector enables the leak to be precisely targeted. The leak detector's horn has been designed to be able to pick up sound waves and focus them in such a way that it acts like a directional microphone and suppresses other noise.

Non-stored materials with material-specific parameters can be permanently added and saved in the melt index tester at any time. Melt Flow Tester in application in the plastic production.The melt index tester is therefore ideal for determining the melt flow index, which provides the information about the flow behaviour or the viscosity of the plastic materials at different temperatures and pressures. During this test in compliance with ISO 1133, the mostly granular sample is placed in a preheated cylinder and heated at a material-specific temperature. A piston with a defined mass, due to its own weight, afterwards presses the liquid melt through a nozzle with a defined diameter. After a specified period of time, the measurement on the melt index tester is stopped and the mass, that has been flowing through the nozzle, is determined by means of the analytical balances, as a result the mass / time value (g / 10min) is obtained, which is also referred to as the MFI value. The melt flow index is determined in order to examine and study the flow behaviour of thermoplastics. Due to the flow behaviour, the degree of polymerization can be derived, which on the other hand has an influence on the later mechanical properties of the molded plastic. Since plastics are sometimes sensitive to moisture, the increased moisture in the granules during the melting process during injection molding can lead to the shortened molecular chains and thus to poorer mechanical properties. It is therefore necessary to dry the granules to a suitable level of moisture before injection molding in order to avoid later quality losses on the finished product. The melt index tester from PCE Instruments is therefore a very suitable tool for determining the melt mass flow rate for a wide variety of thermoplastic materials. In this way, even before the production, the important parameters for the subsequent manufacturing can be determined and adjusted if necessary. Thus, the melt index tester contributes to quality improvement in the production process, reduces the reject rate and thus contributes to a sustainable cost reduction.

A handheld stroboscope or strobe tachometer with trigger functionality. This easy-to-use portable digital stroboscope gun features high / low range selection and push-button rate control to scale the flash rate slower (x½) and faster (x2). In addition, two knobs allow coarse and fine adjustment of the flash rate. When the speed of a moving object matches the flash rate of the strobe, the moving object appears to be standing still. With a slight adjustment, movement can be viewed in apparent slow motion. Slow motion makes it easier to visually inspect the process in action. However, these visual illusions can be disorienting. Take necessary safety precautions to avoid accidental contact with moving objects.
