Testing Airplane Hydraulic Valves and Testing For Actuator Leaks.mpg

Using the UL101, an ultrasound detector, the air plane mechanic can inspect the hydraulic valves and listen for actuator leaks. With the UL101 he listens to the fluid bypass at the o-ring in the cylinder. To test the nose gear he makes contact with the nosewheel steering cylinder using one of the UL101's solid probes. Diagnosing internal hydraulic defects can be difficult. The UL101 was designed to make maintenance inspection quick and easy. CTRL Systems, Inc. designs and manufactures ultrasound technologies for condition based maintenance, energy savings, leak detection and quality control. The UL101 is CTRL's ultrasound detector. For condition based maintenance CTRL has developed ultrasound data capture and online analysis software for testing critical mechanical equipment, such as bearings, gears, motors and valves. Available ultrasound detector kits include: Full Kit (mechanical, electrical, and air/gas detection), the Air Audit Kit (air and gas leak detection).
