Product catalog summary
Overview
The LD 400 is an advanced ultrasonic leak detector designed to identify gas leaks in piping systems, even those that are inaudible to the human ear. It is an improvement over the previous LD 300 model, featuring enhanced technology and support for leak tracing.

Key Features
  • Integrated laser pointer for accurate leak localization.
  • Sound-proof headset for use in noisy environments.
  • Acoustic trumpet for precise leak detection.
  • Meets Class I instrument requirements of ASTM International Standard Test Method for leaks using Ultrasonic (E1002-05).

Applications
  • Leak detection in compressed air lines, gas, vapor, and vacuum plants.
  • Refrigerating plants and door seals.

Technical Specifications
  • Working frequency: 40 kHz ± 2 kHz.
  • Connections: 3.5 mm stereo jack for headset, power supply socket for external recharger.
  • Laser: Wavelength 645-660 nm, output power < 1 nW (laser class 2).
  • Operating duration: 10 hours, Charging time: approx. 1.5 hours.
  • Operating temperature: 0 to 40 °C, Storage temperature: -10 to 50 °C.

Energy and Cost Implications
The document provides a table showing the energy loss and annual costs associated with different hole sizes at 6 and 12 bar pressure. For example, a 1 mm hole results in an energy loss of 0.3 kWh at 6 bar, costing €144 annually.

Product Set and Accessories
  • The LD 400 is available as a standalone device or in a complete set, which includes a transport case, sound-proof headset, focus tube with tip, battery charger, and acoustic trumpet.
  • An ultrasonic tone generator is available as an accessory for detecting leaks in depressurized systems.

Special Features
  • Robust and lightweight design for industrial use.
  • Modern lithium-ion battery with high capacity and external recharger.
  • Easy operation via keypad.

Data sheet LD 400-1

If gases escape through leaks in piping systems (e.g. untight screwed connections, corrosions and so on) ultrasonic noises are generated. By means of LD 400 even the smallest leakages which cannot be heard by the human ear and which are not visible due to their size can be detected even from distances of several meters. LD 400 transforms the inaudible signals into a frequency which can be identified. By means of the comfortable sound-proof headset these noises can be realized even in extremely noisy environments. The LD 400 leak detector is the advancement of the proven LD 300 and it convinces by its obviously refined sensor technology and its improved support in the tracing of leaks. By means of the integrated laser pointer which serves for target heading the leak can be localized more accurately. Annual energy costs caused by leakages LD 400 with focus tube and Applications focus tip for precise locating Leak detection in: • Compressed air lines, gas, vapor and vacuum plants • Refrigerating plants • Door seals

Due to a particularly designed acoustic trumpet a better focusing of the acoustic waves is achieved. This acoustic trumpet acts like a directional microphone while interfering ambient noises are cushioned and the accurate localization of the leakages is eased even in areas which are difficult to access. Due to the special design of the acoustic trumpet the use of the laser pointer is not obstructed. A handy ultrasonic transmitter is available for detecting leaks in depressurized systems. The transmitter is positioned in a way that the sound can access the piping system. The ultrasonic signal...
