Uson Releases Optima vT Leak and Flow Tester
Posted: 2012-2-1
Manufacturing engineers, quality engineers, automation specialists, design
engineers, machine builders and others seeking leak detection equipment that
can be custom configured to their unique test application requirements without
added costs, can now obtain a competitively priced and first-of-a-kind leak and
flow tester from Uson -- Uson Optima vT Leak and Flow Tester, Uson’s Optima
vT includes one or two test channels with up to four sensor inputs each, totally
customizable pneumatics, multiple built-in automated calculators, myriad data
handling and storage options and other features that combine to make the
Optima best-match test technology for the greatest number of leak and flow
test applications.
R&D for the multi-function single or dual channel configured Optima vT Leak
and Flow Tester began in 2009 and incorporates Uson’s vast and unparalleled
knowledgebase of the wide ranging requirements for leak detection and flow
testing in medical, automotive, and other industrial parts testing using the
unique and adaptable two-channel 8-sensor technology in its core to deliver
best-in-class test technology without a premium price tag.
Joe Pustka, Uson Technical Specialist comments, "No matter what you want to
achieve in your test application Uson can do it and now the Optima vT will most
often be the leak detector of choice. You want production speed on the order of
a million parts a year including highly accurate and multiple tests? We can
configure the Optima to be that throughput king. You want a variety of tests
done in sequence such as a pressure decay test followed by a series of flow
tests in different ranges? That is doable too. Add in custom pneumatic
configurations allowing you to select best-match regulators, valves and
additional sensors plus a wide range of built-in automated calculators such as
those used for temperature compensation or total leakage calculators that can
eliminate needs for added test sequences, and other built-in math and you have Optima vT, which hands down is the most versatile leak detector design to ever
be released. Optima vT configures to the highly varied specifications for testing
that Uson has helped engineer test solutions for ever since we first developed
dry air leak testers for NASA almost 50 years ago and then introduced to
commercial applications. With Optima vT you not only get a leak and flow tester
that is best-match for your application today but also will be configurable to
your changing test requirements of tomorrow."
Key features of the Optima vT Leak and Flow Tester include:
-Capabilities for vacuum decay tests, pressure decay leak testing, differential
pressure decay leak tests, mass flow leak detection (including back pressure
and differential), upstream and downstream cracking pressure, pressure rise
tests, burst tests, laminar flow tests, force decay testing, and occlusion testing
-State-of-the-art microcontrollers comparable to those used in the most
sophisticated and demanding consumer electronics applications
-2 Channels with up to 4 sensors/channel, totaling up to 8 sensor inputs
-Simultaneous testing on all sensor inputs
-Built-in automated calculators to speed testing and data handling
-Fully customizable pneumatic controls
-Large easy-to-read full color touch screen display with intuitive user interface
