The Cygscope RD from Cygnus Instruments uses detection of ultrasound to allow the user to quickly and accurately find leaks in industrial machinery. Ultrasound is generated by gas and liquid leaks. The intensity of the detected ultrasound is displayed on the LED bar graph and is made audible through either the internal loudspeaker or headphones.

In addition, the CygScope RD has a digital LCD readout to allow comparative measurements to be taken for regular maintenance checks over given periods.

Probe Options

Air Probe C50

(included in standard kit) The air probe is the most basic method of detecting ultrasound. It can be directly connected to the testing device, or via the flexible cable.

Contact Probe C52

The special contact probe is used to detect ultrasound on solid surfaces, eg noisy bearings.

Directional Tube

(included in standard kit) To be fitted onto the air probe C50 to improve the focus of the probe.

Flexible Air Probe C53

For otherwise inaccessible locations.

Parabolic Probe C55

Telescopic Pole

The pole can extend up to 3m long to increase the reach of the user working with the air probe. The air probes are secured in a rotatable clamp and a connection is made with the socket near the clamp.

Ultrasonic Transmitter

With adjustable intensity and sound modulation for detection of defective seals

Waterproof Contact Probe C51

To detect gases/liquids escaping from pipes and valves.
