The indoor version in a plastic box: VLR .. E – the vacuum leak detector with electronic expansion options for the use on pipes
The weather-proof outdoor version: VLR .. PMMV – the vacuum leak detector for pipes with a digital pressure display (M) and solenoid valves (MV) if required, e.g. at high pressures
Vacuum leak detector for the leak monitoring of double-walled pipes with the option of connect- ing additional equipment such as a sensor and/or a solenoid valve.
Sensor :
Instead of the liquid barrier if special assembly or stability conditions require it or as a leakage sensor that is used separately e.g. in the collecting area
Solenoid valve :
Is used at high pressures in the inner pipe (> 5–25 bar) to protect the leak detector from excessive pressures
Each leak in one of the both walls will be detected before the conveyed product can enter the environment.
A leak detection system with the highest level of environ- mental protection acc. to European standard EN 13160, class 1
Monitorable liquids :
Water-polluting liquids with a flash point > 60 °C (for Germany > 55 °C acc. TRBS and TRGS) where no explosive vapor-air mixtures occur. If different water-polluting liquids are con- veyed in individual pipelines and monitored with a leak detec- tor via a manifold, these liquids or their mixing must not have any hazardous effects on one another or cause any chemical reactions.
Monitorable pipes :
Pipes/hoses made in the factory or on site – depending on the version with up to 25 bar pressure in the inner pipe
