Page 13: Automatic Distance Measurement
Quick Start Guide METPOINT ® 8. Automatic distance measurement The new intelligent horn features an integrated distance measuring module. Prerequisites for firmware and hardware: In order to be able to use this functionality, the following prerequisites must first be met: • The main board must be “intelligent” so that the main body of the METPOINT CID and the tool ®... - Page 14 METPOINT ® Quick Start Guide In order to automatically use the measured distance to calculate costs, you will need to enable the “Distance by Laser” option under “Parameter.” Important: The laser must be switched on before you enable “Distance by Laser.” Otherwise, the icon will flash yellow and red and say “Laser?”. Note: For the horn, the valid distance range is 1 …...

Page 16: Pinpointing Leaks
METPOINT ® Quick Start Guide 9. Pinpointing leaks This section goes over how to optimally use the device in real-life scenarios. 9.1 Leak pinpointing process The following process should be carried out cyclically at the company in order to keep leakage rates as low as possible. -
Page 17: Possible Causes Of Leaks
Quick Start Guide METPOINT ® 9.2 Possible causes of leaks When dealing with compressed air systems, leaks can be usually found at connecting elements. • Leaky couplings and hose clamps • Leaky gaskets • Porous / faulty hoses • Porous / faulty seals on tools and machines •... -
Page 18: Choosing Accessories
METPOINT ® Quick Start Guide 9.4 Choosing accessories In order to make it easier for the user to pinpoint leaks, various attachments were developed for different measuring conditions. Note on distance for the quantification function: The distances that must be maintained for quantifying the leak are always measured from the front end of the corresponding attachment to the leak. -
Page 19: Focus Tube
Quick Start Guide METPOINT ® 9.4.2 Focus tube The tip of the focus tube only lets very few ultrasonic waves through in the direction of the ultrasonic transducer, making it possible to pinpoint leaks very exactly. Accordingly, it is recommended to use the focus tube at short distances in order to accurately pinpoint the corresponding leak. -

Page 21: Selecting Sensitivity Levels
Quick Start Guide METPOINT ® 9.5 Selecting sensitivity levels Ultrasonic levels can be viewed as a kind of leak “volume.” You can use the “sensitivity adjustment button” to adjust the sensitivity of the METPOINT ® to the corresponding surroundings. This will heavily affect the device’s acoustic behaviour and increase or reduce the valid value range. Reducing the sensitivity level will reduce the range of the leak measurement. -
Page 22: Auto Function (Standard)
METPOINT ® Quick Start Guide 9.5.2 Auto function (standard) The auto function (automatic sensitivity level selection) is activated by default. In other words, the measured ultrasound level is used to automatically set the optimal measuring range. Example: Level = 71 dB -> stage: 20 … 80 dB 9.5.3 Manually adjusting the sensitivity You can also switch between individual sensitivity levels manually. -
Page 23: Other Problems That Can Make The Measurement More Difficult
Quick Start Guide METPOINT ® Option 2 … Walking along the compressed air system. Alternatively, if there is more noise, you can make it easier to pinpoint the leak by “moving along and listening to the compressed air system bit by bit.” That is, from the compressor room all the way to the end points. - Page 24 METPOINT ® Quick Start Guide Overlapping leaks: If leaks are physically close to each other, the ultrasound they emit will overlap. In this case, it is recommended to “seal off” the leaks with a piece of cloth. This will increase the accuracy of the measurement enormously, especially when quantifying the leak. At the same time, you should be measuring physically very closely to the components.

Page 25: Documenting Leaks
Quick Start Guide METPOINT ® 9.7 Documenting leaks Once you find the leak and have set the corresponding pressure and distance and described the leak, you can save a picture of the latter by tapping the “store” button. After this, you can check the parameters (distance and pressure) and define the exact measuring location with the corresponding company, building and place. In addition, you can also enter a brief description (maximum of 32 characters). -
