PT3

All-In-One Tool for Daily Inspections, Wherever the Job Takes You
Pocket TrapMan® PT3 is a versatile inspection device that can automatically diagnose steam trap operating condition, as well as internal valve leakage, based on simultaneous temperature and ultrasonic vibration measurement.
PT3 can also measure shock pulses generated by abnormal bearing conditions in rotating equipment such as pumps. These shock waves, caused by surface damage or insufficient lubrication, are quantified as vibration acceleration levels and displayed in dB, enabling objective condition assessment.
Compact and portable, the PT3 supports routine inspection and operator-driven maintenance by providing reliable, on-site diagnostic data.
Benefits and Features
Supports daily inspections
Simultaneous ultrasonic vibration and temperature measurement enables automatic determination of steam trap blockage or leakage during routine inspections.
The compact, pocket-sized housing allows the instrument to be easily carried during daily rounds.
Bluetooth® connectivity supports wireless earphones, enabling digital audio monitoring (auscultation) similar to a stethoscope.
Bluetooth® Version 5.0 compliant.
Stable and accurate measurement
An internal bandpass filter suppresses ambient and external noise, allowing stable and highly accurate ultrasonic vibration measurement even in noisy plant environments.
Easy to see screen, any time of day
The large reflective LCD ensures clear visibility in daylight. An integrated front light provides reliable screen visibility in low-light and nighttime conditions.
Linkage with the dedicated CMRecorder™ mobile application for simple reporting
When used in conjunction with the CMRecorder™ application, measurement data obtained with the PT3 can be recorded, stored, and managed efficiently.
The application allows maintenance and reliability engineers to manage and report on inspection findings, enabling standardization of inspection and maintenance workflows.
Application Areas
- On-site inspection of steam traps and various types of valves
- Condition monitoring and basic diagnosis of bearings, pumps, and other rotating equipment
- RFID tag reading when linked with the CMRecorder™ application
