PTV-01 Performance Target Verification Kit

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Performance Target Verification Kit (PTV-01) is designed to accurately test the functionality and performance of Incus ultrasonic gas detectors. These detectors are used to identify pressurized gas leaks in environments such as refineries, gas plants, and offshore installations.

Key Features
  • Provides accurate testing for ultrasonic gas leak detectors.
  • Portable and operable by a single person.
  • Simulates worst-case hazardous events using inert gas release.

Technical Specifications
  • Dimensions: Approximately 530 mm (W).
  • Weight: 45 kg.

Kit Components
  • Two 10-litre nitrogen gas cylinders at 150 BAR.
  • High-pressure gas regulator.
  • Two-meter high-pressure hose.
  • High-pressure valve with pressure gauge and test nozzle.
  • Transportation trolley.

Operation Procedure
The PTV-01 is positioned near a potential gas leak source. The pressure is set to match typical values found in the area. An orifice, determined by the desired gas leak size, is fitted into the release nozzle. A pressurized gas volume is released, generating an initial "burst" ultrasound detected by the Incus. This confirms the detectors' ability to alarm at or below the minimum required gas leak rate.

Important Note
Ensure compliance with local regulations when shipping gas cylinders.

PTV-01 Performance Target Verification Kit-1

Performance Target Verification Kit Product Data Sheet Performance Target Verification Kit PTV-01 The PTV-01 provides an accurate method to test both functionality and performance of the Incus ultrasonic gas detectors. The Incus is an omni-directional airborne leak detector that responds to pressurised gas leaks. These detectors complement traditional gas detection methods used in refineries, gas plants and offshore installations. Ultrasonic gas detectors are the only type of hazard (fire or gas) detection product where the performance target set out in the installation safety case can be verified meaningfully and safely. The PTV-01 generates a "burst release" which represents the ultrasound expected in the event of an incident. No more than four tests should be needed to verify the total detection envelope. PTV-01 Performance Target Verification Kit Operation The PTV-01 is set up in direct vicinity of the potential gas leak source, for example, next to a vunerable gas value. The pressure in the release volume of the PTV is set to the same pressure as would be typically found in the value. An orifice of the required release hole size is fitted into the release nozzle of the PTV-01. The size of the orifice will have been determined by the gas leak size the client is looking for. Once all is set up a volume of pressurized gas is released through the PTV-01 orifice and the initial "burst" ultrasound is generated .This is be detected by the Incus in the vicinity of the value generated. Through this test it is confirmed that the UGLD’s in the area will detect and alarm at or below minimum required gas leak rate. Only the inital "burst" is measured as by necessity the PTV-01 only contains a small volume of gas, unlike a process pipe. Note: When shipping gas cylinders, please ensure local regulations are adhered to. Features Accurate testing of ultrasonic gas leak detectors The PTV-01 is portable and can be used by a single person Inert gas release simulates worse case hazardous event Technical Details Approx dimensions 530 (W) Weight 45 kg Kit Contains 2 x 10 litre cylinder Nitrogen Gas at 150 BAR; high pressure gas regulator; two meter high pressure hose; high pressure valve with pressure gauge and test nozzle; transportation trolley.
